Grading is done conservatively, visually. Check unaltered sound clips. I currently have a hand-picked variety of really great garage, psych, heavy, acid-folk, proto-punk, surf-age instrumental, and other assorted 45 delights up for grabs. Lots of obscurities as always, along with a number of Texas and Gulf Coast rarities.

 

 

 

 

 

ARTIST: The Fabulous XL's
TITLE: Southern Love / Tropic of Cancer
LABEL: XL's
CONDITION: VG- (Plays fine, glossy w/light scratches. Flipside label has an old address sticker on it.)

Cool read of the haunting Ronnie Hawkins dirge by a combo with some wiggy early garage band energy. Flipside "Tropic of Cancer" is dramatic teen rock 'n' roll exotica, complete with "jungle" vocalizations and insistent organ vamping for maximized ambience. Unknown provenance, though presumably a Southern or Midwestern release. Early '60s? Anyway, quite scarce.
