  • Thanks for posting this song - i'm really getting into 60s garage music recently. Is this song originally by The Count Five?

  • As far as I'm aware it is one of their originals. Byrne is credited as one of the two composers.

  • The Routemaster is the best bus that London ever had on its streets. I think that they should be put back on all of London's bus routes.

  • Yes, the old buses were much better than these new things.

  • Ahh...........music from the mid 60s!

    1965 was the guitar sound clean and clear. The fuzzbox made​its entrance in 1966. Compare Count Five with for example THE ZETTLERS. 1965 they recorded "Skinnie Minnie" and "Beautiful Delilah". Incredibly tight and with a fantastic drive. And, check out the sound of the guitar and bass. It is interesting to see how the ideals of sound change between 1965 and 1966.

  • Double Decker Bus - The Count Five [San Jose, California] - 1966 - "HAS ALL THE ELEMENTS that us Garage-Heads love." - Psychotic Revelation: The Ultimate Count Five (Big Beat)-2003. - Psychotic Revelation: The Ultimate Count Five (Big Beat)-2003.

    u mean david byrne? tell tell

  • I love this song. Psychedellic paranoia at it's finest and most compressed, with the exception of Talk Talk by the Music Machine.

  • these guys arent afraid to change up tempos

  • Good song, obviously influenced by The Yardbirds. The Five were also one of the few circa-'66 US bands into The Who; their one album features covers of "My Generation" and its B-side, "Out in the Street". A classic Sixties garage band, responsible for one of rock's great proto-punk hit singles. Thanks for posting this!

  • john byrne was such a great guy!!! he was my grannys brother or my great uncle :)

  • There were mods in San Jose in 1966, and THERE STILL ARE!!!!! MOFOS.
