RARE 1965 ORIGINAL HOT GARAGE ROCKER !!

               

     The BOBBY FULLER FOUR

       KRLA King Of The Wheels   

                      

          

\                                         USA - MUSTANG RECORDS

Original 1965 first, and by far, hardest to find of two albums released by the cool garage rockers Bobby Fuller Four...

The Bobby Fuller Four were garage rockers with a desireable raw melodic sound yet had enough polish to cover some of the songs of the day and make them interesting. KRLA KING OF THE WHEELS has always been a difficult album to find. Released just before their national breakout hit "I Fought The Law" ...Bobby Fullers death at a young age makes this a rare glimpse into a group that showed promise.

Producer Bob Keane and disc jockeys from (hip 60's) KRLA radio station in Los Angeles helped conceive the idea for this album. The KRLA Top Eliminator was a customized dragster made to help promote KRLA, and the Bobby Fuller Four provide this eleven song album. The title track is a (stronger than the original) reworking of "King Of The Beach," and an earlier record from the band's days in El Paso, Texas. There are three other car songs, including a killer version of Buddy Holly's "Love's Made A Fool Of You." and much of the album is rendered in Fuller's trademark Tex-Mex Garage Meets the British Invasion styles of the mid sixties.

KRLA KING OF THE WHEELS remains a much sought after rarity after 45 years,  and rightly so...

Never to Be Forgotten   Another Sad & Lonely Night   She's My Girl   Take My Word   Fool of Love   Let Her Dance   B:   King of the Wheels   The Lonely Dragster   Litttle Annie Lou   The Phantom Dragster   Saturday Night   KRLA Top Eliminator

 

CONDITION: The cover: Very collectible VG++ to "EX" (excellent) with no split seams, no bends, no writing. the back cover(only) has a thin brown stain at very top, (see photo #2) otherwise all around solid with only light stray shelf wear and hardly any wear at all on the cool front cover...

The Vinyl: all clean and glossy near"EX" (excellent) with only some light soft inner sleeve type scuffs, so the deep groove pressing easily plays minty clean....

       

      A cool addition to anyone's music library!
