On The Road South. Texas garage bands in the 1960's. Tuesday, July 7, 2015. Larry Wilson and The Continentals. I was recently very excited to discover that there was a rock n roll group who recorded a record in the 60's from La Grange, TX. I spent a lot of time in La Grange throughout my life as I was raised in Smithville, the neighboring small town just to the West on Highway 71. I was able to locate singer and band leader Larry Wilson and he sent me a brief bio on the band via email. Ur third record wa...

There's a producer credit of A. Dicroce on the label side with the band's original composition- a pleasant sax-laden ballad called "I Must Go".

On The Road South. Texas garage bands in the 1960's. Saturday, March 1, 2014. Jack Flanders recently wrote to me and asked if he could contribute a story on his 60's rock band from Waco. Of course! Below is the tale, in his own words…. Quiet Riots in old Waco, courtesy of The Grass Menagerie. Without fail, “Riot on Sunset Strip’’ would always incite mayhem of some order, according to band members. On a spring night in 1966, the fighting spilled from Waco High School’s gymnasiu...Amazingly, although they ...

Donnie and Joe Emerson - Dreamin' Wild. Finally getting a wider audience reissue treatment by the folks at Light in the Attic - more here. Found out about this record a little bit after its initial discovery, copies changed hands, I idly thought one would turn up when I least expected it. Now with the reissue it's gone from an eBay saved search that would ring up once or twice every six months to a daily occurrence. Ever stranger are the mass market writeups:. Arthur Russell Film Screening and Afterparty.

Being that my blog is named after the A side masterpiece of the lone psych-punk 45 by Corpus Christi's Stereo Shoestring, I couldn't possibly betray my obligation to research them and write an in depth piece on the band itself!
