Now Playing Week #18 - Texas Border - The Flamin Groovies
Just heard this song and I love it! It's really a tribute to Spotify's algorithm for selecting songs that they think you would like. This song appeared on my Daily Mix and even though I never heard of the Flamin Groovies, they seem to be my kind of music. They were active in the 60's and 70's but sounds a bit like some other good music from today. According to Wikepedia these guys helped to advance Power Pop and were noted as the forerunners of punk.
This live version is just ok, but listen to the one off their LP - a real rockin' song!!!
They kind of have an Iggy Pop and the Stooges vibe to them mixed with some blues! I can see so many artists being influenced by this sound! I really enjoyed this!
Definitely! Glad you liked it
