Tino and The Revlons

By Request at the Sway-Zee

Very Rare Original US Garage Frat LP released on Dearborn Records in 1966. 1st US pressing.

While none of the singles proved a commercial blockbuster, they generated sufficient attention for Dearborn to finance an album. Released in 1966 "By Request at the Sway-zee" featured a conventional set of popular garage and rock covers. Like thousands of other cover bands, the performances were most competent, but unexceptional. As a rule of thumb they were better on the up-tempo numbers with the best probably being their instrumental cover of Link Wray's 'Rumble'. Lacking a strong lead singer, ballads like 'Ask Me' and 'Because' tended to be far less impressive. To be honest virtually none of the 11 tracks differed much from the originals (of course imitation is the sincerest form of flattery). Namesake Tino handled most of the vocals with a strange, but engaging Mickey Mouse edge to his voice (check out their cover of 'Louie Louie'). Giving them credit where due, they were probably far more impressive in a small live setting than on LP and I've certainly heard worse. 'Course that leaves you wondering what all of the excitement was about. In this case my guess would be that it had something to do with rarity than quality and the 'Pokora effect'. This one showed up in one of Hans Pokora's "Record Collectors Dreams" books (think it' was the 2001 volume).
