This could have been accurately described as "rock and roll" , but calling it "punk" conveys what this really is even more accurately, especially for people who know what that means and use the description for MUSIC, not people.

@smokeemonkee To me the word punk means aggressive music and not meant for commercial success. It comes from the heart which to me means just play what you love to play and they did that on this number.

because it is from the "first wave" of punk (U.S. 1966-67)... there was punk before The Germs and before The Sex Pistols and Before The Ramones ... hell, there was punk before The Stooges. there is some 50's stuff i would definitely call "punk". but labels aren't important ... they are only handles that help communicate information.

Wow, this is the real deal. In my opinion though, the retro bands have not been able to capture this exact sound. No doubt because of the vintage equipment and vintage, often crude, recording techniques.

@MrMonsterstiffy personally i don't think i could possibly stretch the label punk to include Elvis or Robert Johnson but feel free to do so. i guess John Cash could be called a punk for his nearly 20 years of speed addiction but other than that i wouldn't call him punk either. i'm guessing that you mean to reference pop stars from the 50's ... from that era, personally, i would call Hasil Adkins and Link Wray punk. Wray basically invented power chords on which most of today's punk is based

@MrMonsterstiffy See what happens when you use the word "punk?" A bunch of pretentious assholes who don't even like music start talking about really uninteresting shit. Yes, junior. We know, you're more worried about whether your anarchy boots make the right impression.

[smokeemonkee]

@AmericanPunkGarage I totally agree with you about your description.

@rockman4591 I missed your comment, so sorry for the late reply. Do you know who played what instruments?

[MrMonsterstiffy]

@kiely Robert Johnson was a punk, Johnny Cash was a punk, Elvis was a punk, a bitch-ass punk... but still.

@kiely THANK YOU.

@djsundancekid Not sure but think 1967 or 1968? Band was from Lake County, California. Steve Kuppinger, Louie Shriner, Dave Templeton and Gary Prather. Louie used a Fender twin reverb lots of reverb. Believe he used an extra reverb unit as well. All four are still alive and two of them are not so well. Steve and Dave still play occasionally. I'm Dave, the drummer's brother. We had a band going for 3 years just for fun. I used to be their roadie. The flip side is cool also. Marble Orchard.
