1967 MONO ORIGINAL ~ TOP CLEAN COLLECTIBLE GARAGE ROCK GEM
STANDELLS ~ CHOCOLATE WATCHBAND
RIOT ON SUNSET STRIP
\ USA - TOWER RECORDS - T 5065 MONO
RARE 1966 ORIGINAL on the highly sought TOWER RECORDS label featuring the rough and tumble garage fuzz punk riots by the STANDELLS and CHOCOLATE WATCHBAND, all non LP tracks as gooood as anything the great bands ever released on vinyl!
Sixties soundtrack albums have always held a special charm, especially those released on the Tower label, from Psych-Out to Wild in the Streets to this classic, Riot on Sunset Strip. The Standells open with the title song, and it would be a refreshing change of pace to hear this clever little gem. While the Sidewalk Sounds come off like some melodic infused garage/surf group, especially with "Make the Music Pretty," but it's "Sunset Sally" from the Mugwumps that gives the album some serious credibility, with its cool fuzzed-up groove. Obscure hipstress Debra Travis adds a folky/Mother Earthy stamp with her one track, "Old Country," but it's the Mugwumps and songs by the Chocolate Watch Band and Standells which are the collectors items. The Standells make "Get Away From Here" sound vocally very Strawberry Alarm Clock, while obscure singer/songwriter figurehead Drew delivers an above-average '60s tune, "Like My Baby." It would fit nicely any time on some college radio retro show.
Dave Aguilar's Chocolate Watch Band gives the album real grit and fuzzed-fueled attitude; "Don't Need Your Lovin'" is fierce garage punk at its best, and "Sitting There Standing" even meaner -- intense fire ... ChocolateWatchBand took this opportunity seriously and it shows. The guitar fights the harp in this final tune, while the throbbing bass, drums, and vocal are pure garage rock magic. The novelty of the Standells title track, "Riot on Sunset Strip," is not to be lost because of Chocolate Watch Band's over the top performance. Cool picture of the Standells on the back makes this something to put on the wall. Moms Boys are the same garage band that topped another Mike Curb soundtrack of top interest called "Sidewalk Sounds." Mike Curb's Sidewalk Productions, clearly on a mission here as the Riot On Sunset Strip movie was hyped as "the most shocking film of our generation!," delivers vintage sounds of the day.
The Riot on Sunset Strip album delivers more bang for the buck. Definitely something you want in your collection.
