030 - Fragile Fruit and the Perpetuated Spirits of Turpentine

We have a couple of mystery bands on the show this time. They came, they recorded, they disappeared. We don't know who the members of the Perpetuated Spirits of Turpentine were, or who was in Shades, Ltd. But we do have two great songs from these bands that we share with you this time.

The Smacks return with another rocking cut from their 1966 45rpm. Lenis Guess is back in the Soul Spotlight with his very first recording from 1964, "For All You've Been."

The backup group the Idets (who sang with Ida Sands) step into the Soul Spotlight for a particularly funky version of "Doggie in the Window." And we end the show with the Modds from Missouri with a fuzzed out number, "Leave My House."

029 - Bummed Out For All You've Been

The show starts off with the Satellites, a short-lived band from Norfolk, VA. The draft cut the life of the group short, but not the career of lead guitarist Dean Kohler. He went on to form another group during his tour in Vietnam! (We'll feature some recordings from that group in a future episode).

The Smacks return with another rocking cut from their 1966 45rpm. Lenis Guess is back in the Soul Spotlight with his very first recording from 1964, "For All You've Been."

And we finish up with Blackfoot, which grew out of the Sole Society (who we featured on a previous episode) and their track "Bummed Out."

One thing that may bum you out -- the disc they're featured on, Lost Souls, Vol. 1 - Garage and Psychedelic Rock n' Roll from Arkansas is just about sold out. And it's not likely to be back in print any time soon. If you're digging this music, the time to purchase is now.
