60 The Brogues
From Merced, California.
59. Nirvana
One of the great British psychedelic records.
58. Amboy Dukes
One of the great silly records. Where Ted Nugent started.
57. The Pretty Things
56. The Starfires
A Bobby Gillespie recommendation.
55. Grass Roots
They went on to have quite a healthy career but this is my favourite song of theirs. A take on Under My Thumb.
54. The Purple Gang
1967 jug band psych. Remarkably it was banned by the BBC.
53. The Equals
Perhaps a lot of this isn't classically Garage. But it sounds like it came out of a garage to me.
52. The Barbarians
Perhaps Are you a boy or are you a girl? would be the one to pick but this is just so beautifully odd.
51. Moby Grape
The second 'grandma' tribute in this selection. Moby Grape were one of the few original San Francisco bands who genuinely sounded Garage. First track from their debut album.
