Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Here is a website for sixties garage bands. A local studio put out a battle of the bands album in 1967. It consisted of local bands. There is an interview I did on this site,(lower Left) I have one cut on the album. I used a Ric 330 MG so what better song than FEEL A WHOLE LOT BETTER By the Birds.I wonder if there are any other members out there that may be on this album. Boy those were the days!!!!

This is a good site, I visit it often.

WNYU here in NY is a great alternative/indie station and they feature a psych/garage show, Plastic Tales from the Marshmallow Dimension every Monday. They archive it every week. If you love garage from the 60s (who doesn't!!) check it out.

For me, this is an amazing find.

Thanks for sharing.

Here's a different website for '60s garage bands and the link to the article about my late '60s band: http://www.60sgaragebands.com/jdthesilencers.html

A Rickenbacker 360-12 MG 1966 was my instrument of choice.

I have no shame!

Very cool, Ron. Any audio to share?

Thanks.

A later iteration of this group did a track on a vinyl LP, but I haven't yet figured out how to get it into a digital format.

Hey Ron,

Which kid are you in the picture? Are you the one standing at 12:00?

No, that's Paul McCartney's cousin, Sean.

I'm the one in the middle.

I always manage to screw that up!

Vincent,

Clicked on the link and found your song on the list, but couldn't figure out how to listen to it. Can you help me out?

Unfortunately there is no audio....... No ...... thats not right........Fortunately there is no audio. I'm still hoping to find someone else who is on this album.
