Reviews of tasty and obscure hook-filled rock'n' roll releases (Glam, Heavy Bonehead Crunchers, Powerpop, Pop/psych,Garage, Surf, 60s Girl Group Rock)...Plus any quirky musings that tickle my fancy... I created this blog in order to stimulate interest, share discoveries and encourage people to go out and search for the original vinyl. Hopefully this blog might also encourage labels to actually compile some of this stuff officialy.

Pantherman –Pantherman
Pantherman –Pantherman/You Are My Friend –Polydor 2050315 (1974 NL)
I am your Pantherman
I am your Pantherman
I’ll show you my paws
I am your Pantherman
I am your Pantherman
I’ll show you my claws
I’M GONNA BITE YOU…
Welcome to the deranged mind (and wardrobe) of producer Frank Klunhaar…
Loud and totally crazy with one hell of a gimmick. This single is up there with the weirdest and best of what the 70s could offer-Yes, I’m talking Grudge and UGE (more about that one soon). The track is a raging Punk/Glam classic and could give Hector a good run for their money. The vocals come across like Bryan Ferry’s disturbed twin who was sectioned at birth and locked up with Billy Hamon and the lyrics…well not sure what to say except ENJOY!Frank released 2 more singles under this pseudonym (Panther Walk and One Man Band, both on Polydor), I hope to be able to report on these as soon as they eventually come in.
Click on title to hear Pantherman in its full glory…Enjoy!
