Knights Bridge Make Me Some Love

This incredible 45 from 1966 Texas psych/garage band Knights Bridge is available on Texas Flashbacks vol. 2.

Made up of sophomores from high school in Odessa, Texas, Knights Bridge was an astonishingly adept and hard-edged garage band. They were signed to Sea Ell Records of Houston in 1967 and cut a debut single, "Make Me Some Love" b/w "CJ Smith," that oozed punk defiance on a level that would've been more appropriate to a group five years older. The record only ever had a few hundred copies pressed, and reportedly changed hands for prices of up to $500 in the 1980's. In 1994, both sides of the record, plus a demo of "C.J. Smith" and a fourth Sea Ell-recorded track, "I Need Your Love," turned up on Collectables Records' History of Texas Garage Bands In the '60s Volume 1: The Sea Ell Label Story. ~ Bruce Eder, All Music Guide

I really like this kind of raw and honest garage/psych from the 60s. My hobby is to rediscover all those great bands from this period that didn´t "broke through". Listen for example to THE ZETTLERS and their versions of "Skinnie Minnie" and "Beautiful Delilah". Really f.......g awesome and with a bloody driving beat. Check up The Golliwogs and the tune "Tell me". Listen carefully to the singer....yes, it´s him.
