Original 1968 FINAL COLLECTION COPY is MINT in factory cellophane

Hard to find a better copy unless it's SEALED = A great LP from the Northwest with relations to the Wailers, Sonics and most of all Paul Revere and the Raiders..

Don and the Goodtimes formed in Portland, Oregon, in 1964. Fronted by Don Gallucci, former keyboardist of the Kingsmen, the group made a name for itself in the Northwest rock scene performing in a similar style as their contemporaries the Wailers and the Sonics. Over time, Don and the Goodtimes developed vocal harmonies and earned two hits on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1967 and later reconstructed itself as the psychedelic rock group Touch, before disbanding in 1969.

Not only does this Don and the Goodtimes LP boast a library of great music, but their family tree is quite interesting.

To begin with, the band, which formed in 1964 in Portland, Oregon, featured Don Gallucci from the Kingsmen. Charlie Coe and Pete Ouellette, who both played in an early incarnation of Paul Revere and the Raiders, were also members of the band. In 1966, Jim Valley departed Don and the Goodtimes to join Paul Revere and the Raiders, with Charlie Coe soon following suit to hook up once again with the colonial-costumed teen idols.

Needless to say, a strong Paul Revere and the Raiders connection runs through the band!

Extensive touring, countless television appearances and generous spreads in the fan magazines gave Don and the Goodtimes loads of exposure. Primed to set the world alight with their handsome faces and terrific tunes, the band migrated to Los Angeles. Although a number of their discs were heavily aired in certain quarters of the country, they never managed to glean a national top 40 hit single. It seemed as if the band was always mere inches away from attaining super stardom.

This rare 1968 Lp, is clearly the best platter Don and the Goodtimes released - it's also (by far) their hardest to find. we haven't had a spare copy to offer in years... this copy in mint condition is the *best* copy we've had (ever) and presents the finest hours of the band. In their infancy, they specialized in stomping frat rockers, powered by smoking saxophone fills and rousing choruses, the LP demonstrate how tight and energetic Don and the Goodtimes were. 

Blistering rhythms, compounded by menacing smirks and driving guitar licks lend “I’m Real” and “Little Sally Tease,” which was rendered by the Standells in an equally exciting manner, a flat-out garage rock feel. Elsewhere are moody haunting melodies, showing Don and the Goodtimes moving in a more sophisticated and pop oriented direction.

Psychedelic impressions blanket the moody and meditative “Colors Of Life” and “You Were Just A Child” teeters and reels to a rush of dizzy tempos and busy keyboard work.

Flush with hopelessly catchy songs, advanced by solid instrumentation and strong vocals, Don and the Goodtimes asserts what an exceptional band they were. Those with an affinity for groups that made the '60s scene like the Knickerbockers, the McCoys, the Turtles, and yes, Paul Revere and the Raiders... 

This rare gem unfolds the spirited sounds of Don and the Goodtimes :::::
