The Flamin' Groovies were a quintessential garage band out of San Francisco that survived for nearly three decades. Their best stuff, like most bands that started in the mid 60's, came out in the late 60's/early 70's, though.
There were a bunch of Groovies' tunes that I was considering for this blog post. However, I settled on the cover of the all time classic, Louie Louie, because they manage to stretch out that laid back, super cool vibe for nearly seven minutes. While I loved the Kingsmen version, I always felt that it was over too soon.
