Minnesota 60's


It's a new day, but let's listen to some old fucking music from Minnesota.



From Hastings, MN. Starting life as a surf band in the most landlocked portion of the continent. I mean, there's plenty of water around here, but no surfing to be had.  "Long Green" is a much better than one might have expected garage rocker about the evils of money. Reminds me of the Kingsmen on one of their better days.
 A quick look on the interwebs says they mutated into another group called the Bedlam Four sometime after their eyes dilated and they recorded this ode to the Hydrogen Atom before calling it quits in 1968.



These boys came from Ely, MN and wrote this little envious fuzz pounder about that older guy that all the chicks love because of his car. (complete with car sound effects.) I mean, he's probably like 24 or something. Sure he can buy you beer, but can he give you that pure teenage love that only the singer can provide her? Probably not.... But fortunately for them they had the "Courage to Cry" for the flip. 

Bitch.
