Description

THE SWING KINGS — “WHAT I SAY ‘65” B/W “NIGHT TRAIN” 45. 

THE SWING KINGS RECORDS 133-1328/1329 / FIRST AND ONLY PRESSING / RELEASED IN 1965. 

******

STUNNING SOUTH LOUISIANA GARAGE PUNK / TITTYSHAKER SWAMP POP R&B… 

BOTH TRACKS ARE MEDIUM-TEMPO… “WHAT I SAY ‘65” IS VOCAL AND JUST FREAKIN’ AWESOME… 

“NIGHT TRAIN” IS INSTRUMENTAL, DRUNKENLY LOOSE AND SUPER-SATISFYING! 

ALMOST CERTAIN THAT THIS IS THE SAME SWING KINGS WHO RECORDED FOR THE LA LOUISIANE LABEL UNDER THE NAME ‘BERT MILLER & THE SWING KINGS’ — FOR TWO REASONS: (A) BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE BERT MILLER AND THE SWING KINGS, AND (B) BECAUSE THIS COPY WAS DISCOVERED AT THE BOTTOM OF A LARGE BOX OF SWAMP-POP, 60’S PUNK, AND NEW ORLEANS R&B SINGLES STUFFED UNDER A TABLE AND BEHIND A MASSIVE 60’S TELEVISION CONSOLE IN A JUNK SHOP IN WESTWEGO, LOUISIANA — OLD WEST BANK STOMPING GROUNDS FOR BERT MILLER & THE SWING KINGS. EITHER WAY, IT’S A KILLER AND PRETTY MUCH IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND! YOWZA!

RECORD PLAYS FINE AND SOUNDS FANTASTIC REALLY… SOME SURFACE NOISE, OF COURSE, BUT MUCH LESS THAN ONE MIGHT EXPECT (RECORD WILL ARRIVE TO YOU VPI MACHINE CLEANED)... LABELS REVEAL RINGWEAR AND  MAGIC-MARKER’D INITIALS ON ONE SIDE… 

TINY HAIRLINE IN FRONT DEAD WAX WHICH ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT AFFECT PLAY. 

YEAH, YOU RITE, YOU DO NEED IT!

ALL REASONABLE OFFERS ENTERTAINED! DON’T BE SHY! 

WE HAVE OVER 22 YEARS EXPERIENCE SELLING COLLECTIBLE AND RARE RECORDS AND BOOKS, AS WELL AS POP CULTURE COLLECTIBLES, EPHEMERA, AND EFFLUVIA!!! ALL OUR ITEMS ARE PERSONALLY INSPECTED AND CONSERVATIVELY GRADED! SO, BUY WITH CONFIDENCE!!!
