The band was from Grand Rapids Michigan. Ed Drake was the lead singer. I was the bassist. It was pretty much a garage recording. The mixer had so few channels that Ed's vocal had to be recorded through his guitar amp. It was a great time to be in music.
It is hard to believe that what I recorded in the Sixties is still around and on here. AQ "Art Quale" and the production team at Sting- Ray Productions and Discotheque Records had a great time recording in the early Sixties in GR. Most of the team worked at WLAV or WERX during the time we were cutting records. Still sounds good to hear the song again after all these years. This was a LAD Production.

Thanks WRE1947. Love 'If You Treat Me Bad Again'. Both sides of the single sound very much like Lennon vocally, by way of Dylan. Great stuff!
Both sides of this are all time favourites of mine. If only there was more recorded material from the band at this time.
Actually found a copy of this at an estate sale on west side of Grand Rapids in late 90's . Little or nothing known about the band.

I think P Townsend lifted your riff for “Pinball Wizard”, lol. Possibility.
Good music never goes out of style. Peace :)
Lean, stripped down, highly melodic. Ace!
NICE!!!
sounds like nirvana
