Description
1966 first Shondells album .... Straight From The GARAGE!
Tommy James & The Shondells
HANKY PANKY
USA - Roulette -R-25336 - MONOPHONIC
Original 1965 first pressing vinyl in (rare) MONO ... the mono version adds a great punch to the production, a pulsating action sound with the first SHONDELLS album....
In 1964 a local DJ asked Tommy James and his group "The Tornadoes", to sign with his new regional label, "Snap Records". Among the four sides they recorded was an obscure song called "HANKY PANKY". The group changed their name to "The Shondells" and released it as a single. It was an instant local hit but didn't break nationally and was soon forgotten.
Amazingly, two years later in 1966, the record was found in a record bin by a Pittsburgh nightclub DJ who played it at his weekend dances. The response was so overwhelming that the local radio stations started spinning it and an enterprising record distributor bootlegged it, selling 80000 copies in ten days. By May of 1966, HANKY PANKY was the number one record in Pittsburgh and Tommy James was a sensation. Tommy was quickly tracked down and asked to come to Pittsburgh. Unable to put the original group back together, he went alone and found new members for the band to be The Shondells. Two weeks later the new group signed a record deal with Roulette Records in New York and HANKY PANKY became the biggest hit of the summer of '66. Tommy and the Shondells got together enough material to record this full album ...it's characterized by a raw unpolished flavor similar to what local garage bands were releasing in their areas (i.e. the private pressings now going for mega bucks)
