Hello everything! Wow! Here are sixteen rockin’ sydes from the finest sixties’ punk unknowns!! Let’s see what we can find about these ones!

A1- The Other Side were from Victoria, Texas, and apparently active around 1966-67. The only known member was Tobias Wood Henderson, who later had a small career in country rock from 1968 to 1970 with one album and two singles on Pulsar. He had previously recorded a single with his band Tobias And The Sounds in 1965. The Other Side may also have included one “Gaida” according to the writing credits.
- Warlock Records – ACA 6250/ACA 6251 (1966? ‘67?)

A2- This The Oxfords band were from Philadelphia, PA. They released four singles between 1965 and 1966, including one as The Fingers. They’re mostly known for their third one “Don’t Be A Dropout”. This song is their first single. A number of unreleased songs were issued by Gear Fab in 2020.
- Grand Records – 165 (April 1965)

A3 & A4- The Clark Brothers issued only one single in 1966. Though I found no info on them, they must have been Tom J. Kouza’s band, who wrote both sides, and then was involved somehow in The Giant Crab, who re-recorded “Listen Girl”, or maybe was it only a cover, and he was also part of Neighb'rhood Childr'n around 1969.
- Guitarsville – G-2124 (1966)

A5- The Sticks & Stones issued one single in 1967. The A side, “Try”, was compiled on Wyld Sydes. TheBasementWall lists them as from Fairfield, CT. The only name given is Frank Satmary who wrote both sides, but apparently, the band was led by Lou Santoro (stage name Lou Stone), and he said they were from Bridgeport, not Fairfield. Their single was one of the first ones produced by Paul Leka.
- Coral – 62524 (1967)

A6- Dig this unreleased side by The Road Runners from Fresno, California! They released seven songs on four singles in a short period between August of 1965 and April of 1966. Better known for their awesome “Goodbye”!
- Reeltape – none (1966-67)

A7- The Marquis were from Canton, Massachusetts. They released their only single in 1967, written by “C. Balboni”.
- Teen Grove – 201,159 (1967)

A8- Ronnie And The Crowns were from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, formed as early as 1962 at Westdale Junior High. “Love You So”, written by James M. Rogers, lead guitarist in the group, was recorded and issued in 1966. At a different period, the band also had a horn section. About 200-300 copies were made. The band was active until 1969 I think. A little more here!
- Stephanie – MX-957 (1966)

B1- T.J.K. And His P.S. 13 Blues Band was not a real band, but a one-off studio project of Thomas Jefferson Kaye who was a staff producer at Scepter/Wand a year or so earlier. Thomas Kaye was a prolific U.S. songwriter, producer and guitarist, born in 1940 as Thomas Jefferson Kontos but changed to Thomas Jefferson Kaye at a young age. He died in September 1994. He has 190 song titles listed on BMI, and had his own solo career in the 1970s on Dunhill/ABC. In the 1960s, he wrote numerous songs, including “Hey Little Bird” for The Barbarians, “Violation” for Bake Turner, songs for The Kingsmen, Witness Inc., The Left Banke, etc…
- Parkway – P-998 (1966)

B2- 6 Tickets To Shangri-La is a mystery band. All I could find out was that “Flynn” and “Malinowski” who wrote both sides were also involved in The Ides Of Love's single, issued on the same label. They might have been from New York.
- Talmu Records – 311 (1968)

B3- The Creations were from Union, KY. They released one single in 1965. Nothing much is known but 'Jumpin' Jack Sanders from WAKY radio was involved with this group (credited as arranger of the songs). This song’s writing credit is given to “J. Meyers” but another pressing gives the names of “Vickery-Friend-Roberts” instead. Don’t know what to make of it…
- AFCO Records – AF-521 (Dec 1965)
