- Everly Bros.: "The price of love" (Norw. WB -65) Ferry/Roxy
Music's version 76 may be the better known. From Everlies' London session 65
- Gene Pitney: "Time won't let me" (US Musicor early 70s
reissue) Outsiders' song. Pitney was to rush release his,
hindrering them going nationally.
- Cliffters: "Django" (DK Philips -61) Dick Dale with Danish
Nissemænd? Clog surf rock? Band moniker as for CLIFF Richard, word pun on non-existant 'clifter'. Song named not after sinti mr.Reinhard, but rather as for some 50s Western movie. Most influental song in Scandinavian 'Piggtråd'
- Jon & Robin + In Crowd: "Love me baby" (Can. Abnak -67) Gloria/
Elevators riff, RnB tinged. Always mused how this whitey Texan label reached across Color Line with such ease. Seems that Abnak was Jetstar distributed, their Bobby 'Mustang' Patterson even credited as composer here
- Manfred Mann: "Poison ivy" (Norw. HMV -66) Flip of flop 'You
gave me someone to love' , ms Ivy surely is the more rockin' of the two. Maybe outdated by 66, kinda 63 Eel Pie Island RnB? Still Paul Jones does hellofajob, bringing over Leiber/Stoller's funny coastal lyrics as well
- Johnny Hallyday: "Dis-moi oui" (Fr.Philips EP -62?) Really
Shadows' "We say yeah" from Cliff's 'Young ones' 61 film. Done with frog Elvis drone
- Fever Tree: "San Francisco girls" (US UNI -68) Editing away dull
intro&outro, we are left with prime cut Texas garagey psych.
- Baby Ray: "The house on soul hill" (US Imperial -67) Was trying
to sneak this in among dem' soulies 45s, when Son correctly pointed out artist as snowy white. Always a mod fave, one could score his LP for peanuts until recently in Norw. budget bins
- Terry Knight & Pack: "The train" (US Lucky Eleven -67) the Joe
Tex' topside was loathsome, but these rolling stock made our day
- Cliff Bennett & Rebel Rousers: "Slow down" (UK Parlophone -64)
Tighter&faster than Fab Four's or Larry William's OG. Burner
- Rick & Legends: "Love me like I know you can" (US United Artists
-66 promo) Rhetro doowhop'er Rick Palmer's group. Doubling in Brit
Invasion styles, obviously
- Easybeats: "Gonna have a good time" (US UA 80s reissue) Said to
have US-only release on UA 2109 May 67. Never saw such original ever, neither promo nor stock copy. Thus this re(?)issue of sunfall moddish gem.
- Kingsmen: "Annie Fanny" (US Wand -65) Frat rock, we're led to
believe
- Kinks: "Everybody is gonna be happy" (UK Pye -65 export issue)
- Shakers: "Everything's allright" (Sw.Platina -66) Liverpudlian
Mojos' 64 song, done somewhat RnB-deeper and not a hundred miles away from 'Pin Up' Bowie in 73.
