Los Flemáticos "Sometimes Good Guys don´t wear white" cover The Standells - Sala Box 27/03/09
The Standells made number 11 in 1966 with "Dirty Water," an archetypal garage rock hit with its Stonesish riff, lecherous vocal, and combination of raunchy guitar and organ. While they never again reached the Top Forty, they cut a number of strong, similar tunes in the 1966-67 era that have belated been recognized as '60s punk classics. "Garage rock" may not have been a really accurate term for them in the first place, as the production on their best material was full and polished, with some ...
Taken from the 1965 spanish chapter "Far Out Munsters" (Los Monsters En Onda). Episode 26.
The Standells - My Little Red Book Album: Why Pick On Me 1966
I show you how to play the classic riff to "Dirty Water" by The Standells released from their 1966 album "Dirty Water". Since I was born and am from Boston, this is one of my favorite songs of all time. The song is always played after the Red Sox or Bruins win at home. Please rate and comment. Thanks.

The Standells' career began with "Dirty Water," right? Wrong! Although "Dirty Water" was their breakthrough hit and most successful single, by the time it came around, the Standells already had a reasonably impressive resume: over two years in the business, one album, seven singles (including the "bubbling under" hit "The Boy Next Door") and several TV and film appearances (including a memorable appearance on THE MUNSTERS). Although often dismissed by "garage heads" (whatever that means ...

We all know that the Ohio Express became famous for their bubblegum pop hits like "Yummy, Yummy, Yummy" and "Mercy," but like most bubblegum groups, they started off as a garage band, and their debut album, BEG, BORROW, AND STEAL shows them in their early incarnation--much more at home in the garage than the candy shop. These early Ohio Express recordings are, in fact, the work of at least three different bands: the Rare Breed from New York (who recorded the hit "Beg, Borrow, and Steal ...
