On a completely different note, I'm surprised I haven't already posted this - David Clayton Thomas, Brainwashed:
Just discovered this right now. Someone's obviously been listening to the Toys' Lovers' Concerto because this track has the same step-by-step ascending keys sequence. It also has a melody based around the familiar tinkling "lullaby" melody which I presume is of classical origin, and the reason for that is that it's called Lullaby of Love; the band is the Poppies:
I don't think this has been posted; a search didn't find it. Another relatively obscure Four Seasons track, Big Man's World:
One of my favourite 60s Garage tracks. I also like the fact it's written by a teenager called Donna Weiss who went on to write Bette Davis Eyes years later. Buried deep in this thread is at least one mention of "Good Times" by "Nobody's Children" my absolute favourite 60s rarity. I was introduced to this track via Mike Spenser's Trash Box (Trash Box - Wikipedia ). Also saw him and the Cannibals perform it live in London at what I thought was their farewell concert ages ago. He's apparently retired again. Mike Spenser & The Cannibals: 41 years after, The "Kings of Trash" Play Farewell Show I used to have a tape of the Cannibals performing Come See Me on a tape called Greatest Hits of the 1960s. Took me years to find out this wasn't a 60s version! and longer to find out it was a Pretty Things original, 46 in the UK charts on the day of my birth. Mike Spenser sent me an MP3 of this eventually.
