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.

Does anyone remember this band? Gorilla?
I had this flyer hanging around, but would love to know more, what with my penchant for all things simian...Well they're called Gorilla that's for sure and they look like they would sound great...was anything recorded/released?
Nope. The Proudfoot blog just featured this one, which made me think of that flyer. The song is called Gorilla (not the band).However you never really know if there had been a band/song reversal at some point
Ha - I produced their demo for Elektra. I loved the band but my compadres hated the concept. They laughed, though. One day some dude in a gorilla suit brought over this flyer. stephen barncard
Stephen Tantilizing news! I would to know more. What year was this? What did the band sound like? You would happen to have a sound clip hanging around by any chance? All the best Robin
