Garage Punk Unknowns - Part I, Mid-Sixties America's Teen Garage Rock Action Blast! 1965-1967 (comp CD review) (Crypt): I realize some of you don't know the difference between garage punk, your elbow and a toaster pastry. Garage Punk is a genre mostly associated with collector geeks sporting Beatles hairstyles and flared jeans - the guys at record shows who smell like old newspapers. Rodney Bingenheimer is garage rock's poster child. In the great debate of where punk began, garage bands of the ‘60s score highly with many if not most music aficionados. The 70’s punk forefathers drew much of their inspiration from the DIY garage bands found on the old Nuggets comp (recently re-released in a boxed set by Rhino).
There's a small yet rabid collector's market for the old, obscure (the more obscure the better) garage bands that inhabited the nooks and crannys of America's disconnected music market of the ‘50s and ‘60s. Back then, for the majority of bands with no chance for national fame, be it for lack of talent or good representation, the country was divided into small and large markets. Rarely did the hits of one small city make it to other small cities outside of day-trip range. Collections like Garage Punk Unknowns provide glimpses into what everyone was missing. This CD is very enjoyable. I hear you can find collections that stink like crazy.
What is a garage band? It has a number of meanings and uses. It's a generic term for any band that's not famous, never will be famous, or are famous for how well they fit the garage band image. The mental picture is a bunch of tone-deaf teens in dad's garage spending hours trying to play like The Rolling Stones. Garage is sometimes seen as the practice or minor league stage of a band's development. A band without talent will be derided as a garage band not worthy of leaving the garage. A talented band who play rough and ragged will be labeled garage. Billy Childish puts out excellent records that emulate the exact sound of ‘60s garage bands. For what garage bands may lack in talent they often make up for in sincerity, determination and gung-ho weirdness. The best garage bands are the ones who suck but don’t realize they suck.
A misconception about early garage is that bands weren't looking to be popular. Hell, punk's DIY, anti-corporate stance didn't come about till the ‘80s, when punk spread to the suburbs where mom and dad supplied most punk's room and board. Garage bands emulated The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Byrds, Paul Revere And The Raiders, The Kinks - really any band with a "The" in their name. Some Nuggets"bands were good enough for the radio while most others were too intentionally or unintentionally hard, extreme or weird. Garage Punk Unknowns Part 1 is two and a half sides of the seven record Garage Punk Unknown series, presenting 31 tracks of "pre-psych, pre-prog, Stones-influenced garage". The quality of the tracks are excellent and it's easy to daydream they should have been national hits in their time. Poor distribution and media coverage dictated otherwise, and that's the pleasure of comps like this. If I owned a record store I'd put this on all the time, knowing customers would think I'm some kind of frigging genius for even knowing it existed.
74 minutes of non-stop cool, and not one clunker in the lot. Here's some band names: Teddy Boys, Kempy & The Guardians, Danny & The Other Guys, Motor City Bonnevilles, King-Beez, Avengers, Bobby Roberts and the Raveons.
