Monks - Hamburg Recordings

Simply Monks .... Not even "The Monks." Lost and recently found recordings from fifty years ago. Only five songs but what great tunes they are!!! 1960's, garage rock. the music you might expect as the soundtrack to a movie about teenage punks terrorizing pretty boy surfer dudes. That's what it sounds like to my ears. And one of the cooler looking album covers. It just makes my entire collection look that much more hipster.

Always keeping my eyes and ears open for new (and older) sounds and possibilities. One thing leads to another ..... I ordered it on vinyl a month ago from Third Man Records after happening upon one of the songs on their website, after seeing a feature of the record company on CBS This Morning. It feels like I've been waiting several months since, for its official release. There's always something exciting about seeing new music in your mailbox.
