Noted as the initial blasting force behind such records as the Sonics' Psycho, Tommy James' Hanky Panky and untold others!
 

CD Reviews

You Know You Need It, You Know You Want It!
J. A. MANKOWSKI | APO, AP United States | 02/10/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Now, this is what you need to succeed! Yep, all three volumes of this great series are what you need to end the recession, push away depression, and overcome repression! With Billy and Miriam at Norton fully backing, and Tim Warren the Crypt-Keeper doing the mastering, you have in front of you the solution to a problem you didnt know you had! Just buy it, and the other two as well! Clean out the AOR/Easy Listening/Overproduced Gunk out of the sound system of your choice, you will be glad you did! GOO GOO MUCK!"
Good starting point
C. B. Wells | doncaster, south yorkshire United Kingdom | 03/30/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is a pretty good starting point for anyone wanting to get into obscure 1960's rock'n'roll. The one gripe I have with it is a lack of background information about the records themselves in the sleeve notes, inside we get a rather detailed biography of mad mike himself. But overall a pretty good collection, must have fairly good as I have bought the next two collections."
