Beyond rare -- the only one in existence. What we have featured here is a one of a kind garage psych museum piece by the famous garage band THE SHAGGS. Direct from the producer of the "Resurrection" label (from 30 years ago!) manufacturer of the earliest reissue pressings of 60's garage 'monsters' ...

This listing includes the following items, mastered by the pressing plant from some 30 years ago:

  •  7 1/2 ips REEL TO REEL TAPE ("studio" produced)
  •  METAL STAMPER for sides "A" & "B"
  •  TWO (14-inch) ACETATES for sides "A" & "B"
  •  Front & back negatives used to produce the front & back cover  

The above set makes for an amazing addition to your collection -

              you will never see this set again !!

                                                   

THE SHAGGS ~ "WINK"

*Rick Medich (vocals)
*Ted Poulos (guitar, vocals)
*Geoff Gillette (organ, guitar, vocals)
*Franklin Krakowski (drums)
*Ray Wheatley (bass, vocals)

Although recorded in 1967 at the International Recording Studio in Chicago, this one and only offering by the five-piece preppy outfit from Notre Dame University in Indiana, with its multi-part vocal harmonies and jangly guitar, could easily have appeared in 1965 or '66.
However, there is no doubting the band's musical proficiency as they canter through a selection of songs by such luminaries as the Stones, Who, Beau Brummels, Byrds and Them, with the high point being an inspired version of 'If I Were A Carpenter'. As was so often the case, the band members, after producing what was to become a massively-collectable rarity, went their separate ways, probably to pursue fascinating careers in the world of orthodontistry or accounting.

The Shaggs' "beyond rare" long player Wink has been one of the most coveted private-press "garage" albums in underground '60s record collecting circles, only speculation shrouded the group itself who were often misdescribed as "Prep Rockers" from Notre Dame University, and rather a crew that were "straight from the garage."
