  • "Out Our Tree" was my favorite song by the Wailers.....they also did Tall Cool One and The Roadrunner (which I have on Vinyl). How do I post them here???

  • I believe you would need to convert them to MP3 and lay them down behind some sort of video format. This can be done without a video camera using photos (as I did with "Louie History 101), or even a single photo. Ace and Norton have both released the original "Fabulous Wailers" album (including "Road Runner") on CD. The Ace version features the most bonus tracks.

  • I had to laugh tonight. I was sort of getting after my grandchild for her leaving her cello and bow on the floor. So I picked it up, and began playing Louie Louie (since I know absolutely nothing about strings, it was fun, my grandson who playes bass, several guitars and drums asked me the notes, I said, "the 3 open, 3 blue, one yellow", he said that really helped him..so I went to Youtube and brought up the Kingsmen and others for them to hear. All in all, it was a good lesson!

  • The piano sound SUCKS!

  • The Wailers at the Castle came out in the same years as the Seattle World's Fair:

    1962

  • Louie Louie was written by Richard Berry of Los Angeles, CA. and recorded first by Richard Berry and The Pharohs. Several other NW bands including Little Bill & The Blue Notes had recorded the tune before Rockin' Robin did his version. Rockin's version was a huge NW hit. Paul Revere and The Raiders and The Kingsmen versions were national hits with The Kingsmen version becoming the best seller.

  • Rockin' Robin Roberts of the 1962 Wailers wrote and sang the first rock version of Louie Louie. Made more famous by the kingsmen, but the wailer's version was so superior!

  • OK Way back "The Wailers" - Live at The Spanish Castle. Midway Wa. 1964

  • historic band!, great, great!, the garage rock deserves too much to this band

    VIVA EL ROCK'N'ROLL!

  • Wish I knew how to do all that.....I've got a big collection of Northwest music from back then. (I grew up in Aberdeen during the '50s and '60s). Ever heard of Stan Foreman (The DJ) and his "Beachcombers"?? They did a one hit (instrumental) wonder called "The Wheelie" and it was played alot on KHOK/KGHO (Grays Harbor). I still have that and would love to post it here also.
