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.

Vanda & Young Obscurity: My Dear Watson –The Shame Just Drained
My Dear Watson –Elusive Face/The Shame Just Drained –Columbia 5687 (1968 Dutch issue)
The Shame Just Drained is yet another classic Vanda &Young composition. Pencilled in for inclusion on the Easybeats unreleased Good Times album, it first appeared on this Scottish band’s single. Both sides were actually produced by Vanda & Young (Staeb productions -‘Beats). Although it’s a nice production and performance, the vocals are not as personable as The Easybeats’ own version which finally surfaced on the 1977 on the odds and sods The Shame Just drained collection. Stay tuned for another instalment of Vanda & Young greatness from the same time period
