The Best of the Standells

The Best of the Standells (1984) more music like this

by The Standells

1984's The Best of the Standells remains one of the best compilations of the proto-punk group's output, collecting their classic "Dirty Water" as well as "Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White," "Barracuda," and "Why Pick on Me." It's true that nothing else matches "Dirty Water"'s impact, but the rest of the Standells' songs reaffirm what a solid ...

Nuggets From Nuggets: Original Artyfacts From the First Psychedelic Era is a single-disc, 20-track distillation of Rhino's stellar, similarly titled four-disc box.

Nuggets: A Classic Collection From the Psychedelic Sixties

Nuggets: A Classic Collection From the Psychedelic Sixties (1986) more music like this

by Various Artists

In its time, in the mid-'80s, Rhino Records' first volume of its Nuggets series was one of the basic starting points for a collection of mid-'60s psychedelic and garage punk music, and it still holds up for content. Almost everything here is a musical touchstone of the genres, either a major chart hit or an underground classic, and the little that ...

by The Standells

No one's confusing it with Hot Rocks, but this Big Beat collection is the biggest, best yet available on the Standells, beginning with the A-side of their 1965 breakout "Dirty Water" and ending 20 songs later with the B-side of their final original single. Along with a copious band biography in the liner notes, Hot Hits & Hot Ones also boasts a ...

Dirty Water

Dirty Water (1966) more music like this

by The Standells

Along with Why Pick on Me, this was the group's strongest album, although you're always better off with a greatest hits collection. "There Is a Storm Comin'" and "Pride and Devotion" are a couple of strong numbers that don't make it onto compilations, and "Rari, " the moody B-side of "Dirty Water, " tis one of their best little-known tracks. The ...

For this volume in their series of Standells two-fers, label of reissue Big Beat wisely paired two subsidiary releases, the soundtrack of the 1967 film Riot on Sunset Strip (to which the band contributed two songs) and a brief rarities compilation. The first leads off with the title track, one of the Standells' brightest moments, then proceeds ...

The Standells' final studio album is a mixed effort, despite the outstanding title track. The early Pink Floyd-like "All Fall Down," "Barracuda," and especially "Riot on Sunset Strip" are top-notch pop-punk...The CD reissue adds five rare but unremarkable bonus tracks, including outtakes and a non-LP single.

by The Standells

All six of the songs on this 10" vinyl release were recorded live at Michigan State University in 1966, and were previously unissued. On the rare occasions when live recordings of bands such as the Standells are dredged up, the results are usually disappointing, both soundwise and performance-wise. Happily, this proves a remarkable exception to ...

Garage Band Classics (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

This ten-track budget compilation is a great little bargain for fans of mid-'60s garage band music. There are a couple of ringers whose appearance are debatable in this collection ("Summertime Blues" by Blue Cheer and "Little Red Book" by the Litter), both outside the time frame being spotlighted here. But it's hard to fault the clean master tape ...

The Hot Ones!/Try It (1993) more music like this

by The Standells

One good thing about '60s garage punk music is that when it is done right, it's so fast that you plunge right through it -- in that sense, it's a lot like rockabilly music; and with brevity like that, if a band is any good, there's only so much that even the occasional clinker can mar the listening experience. The two Standells albums represented ...

More Nuggets, Vol. 2 (1987) more music like this

by Various Artists

Picking up where the first Nuggets CD left off, More Nuggets contains 18 wonderfully raw garage-rockers, which are intercut with some trippy psychedelia and folk-rock. The selection on More Nuggets is a little more unpredictable than on its predecessor, since it doesn't just feature hits like "Liar Liar," "I Wonder What She's Doing Tonight," "Talk ...

Best of 60's Rock [Priority] (1990) more music like this

The Best of 60's Jukebox Rock, Vol. 1 is an entertaining 14-track collection that contains a wealth of classic pop and rock & roll singles from that pivotal decade. There's really no rhyme or reason to the selections, but the album remains a highlighly enjoyable listen. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

As the title suggests, Rock Goes To The Movies collects rock hits from the '50s and '60s that were featured in movies of the time. Connie Francis' "Looking For Love" and "Lets Have A Party Tonight," Johnny Horton's "North To Alaska" and "Sink The Bismarck," and "After The Fox" by the Hollies and Peter Sellers are some of the pop culture highlights ...

The Very Best of the Standells (1998) more music like this

by The Standells

The Standells were a one-hit wonder, and that hit was "Dirty Water," which appropriately opens and closes this compilation (the second version is in stereo). Among the 15 other tracks are the group's less successful follow-ups to their hit, notably "Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White," and LP tracks from their three albums of 1966-67, including ...
