KENNY & THE KASUALS
IMPACT (ORIGINAL PRESSING)
For collectors of Texas garage bands, this Lp ranks right up there at the top – it is indeed a very rare item. Check on PopSike and you'll find that this changes hands very infrequently. Well, here's your opportunity to get the latest to go on the block. This ORIGINAL PRESSING was turned up a few weeks ago in the shadow of Bryan Adams High School. That's where Kenny & The Kasuals called home.
They were quite the popular garage band in 1965 Dallas, and were regulars down at the Apartment Club, and later the Studio Club, where this 'live' album was supposedly recorded. The set here as a sort of raucous Dave Clark Five-meets-the Stones combo, and by 1967 the Kasuals progressed to acid punk with their most popular local hit, "Journey to Tyme." On this set the band are all 18 to 19 years old. Only 500 of these were pressed and that's why they're so rare today.
THIS IS REAL : HOW TO SPOT A REISSUE
This album was commanding such high prices among garage band collectors that it was reissued in 1977. It's pretty easy to spot the reissues. There is a line of text saying it's a reissue below the picture on the back of the jacket. The faces on the front cover, which are in grey halftone screens, are high contrast black on the reissue, and finally, the reissue appears to be one continuous track, while the originals have songs banded apart, like a normal Lp. The line of type running vertically on the right side of the jacket is down the spine of the reissue.
