Album Notes & Community Reviews

This highly successful compilation captures the frantic, heavily fuzzed-out energy of the American answer to the British Invasion. Featuring their massive, aggressive garage-rock anthems, the collection highlights the band's incredibly tight musical execution and their knack for delivering rebellious, heavily rhythmic pop-rock that completely dominated the mid-1960s American charts and daytime television.
