i'm still surprised when i see acts like this and how smart/clean-cut they were! When I only knew the records I always imagined them to be more freaky lol.
Who cares if the drummer is singing or not???!! The Standells were an EXCELLENT piece of American 60s rock. Never superstars, but a wonderful example of "unwashed" American R & R back in the mid 60s. Their "Dirty Water" LP is classic. Great band. Deserved bigger status.
Well the dumbass that is me thought this was The Animals. Even a dumbass can learn something new everyday. I've said this very prayer for most of my life, and so far "lord" doesn't seemed to give a heavenly crap. I'm constantly being misunderstood. ARGH!!!!
Thanks for posting this . Admittedly , a singing drummer was/ is unique , but , Dick Dodd carried it off with more than enough cool, especially if you check the post - hit footage from "Riot on Sunset Strip" and even the killer 1999 NYC footage ( I was at that show , they killed.).
In 1962 Vox introduced the first pentagonal Phantom guitar, originally made in England but soon after made by EKO of Italy. It is still available as a boutique niche instrument.
my favorite original Standells lineup! x0]

Interesting timepiece,but if there ever was to be made a case ,that drummers shouldn't sing,this is it.
His' intentions' might be good :))but this
looks just plain silly.
