I'm Still a Virgin / Shit Talk It's January 22nd, 2013 And You're in a Rad Garage Band - GFY - The Chocolate Watchband
Posted by Mike Nipper on Tue, Jan 22, 2013 at 4:22 PM
Okay, I KNOW knowledge of the Chocolate Watchband SHOULD be rote. This San Jose group is garage/'60s entry-level gear, so mandatory then, and their three LPs, No Way Out, Inner Mystique, and One Step Beyond are ROCK canon. That said, I had a hard time selecting which track to post for today's "IJ2013AYiaRGB - GFY" entry, THEY'RE ALL SO GOOD; so I went with their first A-side.
That track sure has got some SWAGGER—Mick Jagger swagger, no less. I don't think Jagger ever got this heavy. Also, I'd certify this as a solid dancer.

as someone in 2013 and a (lets be honest) BAD garage band, i have been enjoying this series immensely. keep up the good work skipper
