I really like this kind of raw, rough and honest garage rock. My hobby is to rediscover all those great bands from the 60s that didn´t "reach the highest level". It´s a fantastic musical treasure. Listen (Youtube) for example to:
THE ZETTLERS and their versions of "Skinnie Minnie" and "Beautiful Delailah". Really f....g great with a bloody driving beat,
THE GOLLIWOGS and the tune "Tell me". Check up the singer...Yes, it´s him!!
I´ve been in contact with Geordie (leadsinger) and he told me that all old records are hard to get as they´re not produced anymore :-(. I´ve looked myself for Red Squares - The Ultimate Collection 1966-1969 and I´ve got an answer today fron Geordie that it´s impossible as this 2 disc-CD is not produced anymore either!!!
They recorded two versions of this one; a fast (as released on the Swedish 45 and the Danish first of two LPs) and a slower one (as released on the Danish 45 -picture sleeve pictured above). Both are fabulous, but certainly the faster one (which is the one here) is the winner! Tuff stuff.

I bought a compilation CD by Red Squares at a fleamarket in Nyköbing north of Gedser last year. I paid 10 DKK

Ya people seem to confuse the slower one as being an LP version, but ya the LP has this same awesome fast version.
