R.G. Jones of Morden was a studio in Morden, Surrey (now in the London borough of Merton, 8 miles south-west) where Davy Jones and The Lower Third made recordings in May 1965, and again as David Bowie in October 1965.
I love this!!! A great song with killer fuzz guitar played the way it is meant to be played!!! I am grateful to have grown up in the sixties. Because I was very young and the family was into classical stuff I never got to listen to good stuff like this. In college I met a guitarist who had this massive sixtie's collection (and I don't mean top forty stuff) not that I dislike top forty 60s I love psych, garage, and freak-beat 1960s. Thank you for sharing this momentous piece from the great UK!!!!!
The members of Pneumania were sixth formers in 1968 at my school in Epsom when they made this single ("I Can See Your Face"). Before they left school they played a concert on the school stage which I can still remember. I wonder what the band members went on to do? Then a different band called Velvet Hush (led by Andy Qunta) at school made a great single called "Broken Heart". Both released on the local (Surrey) OAK label.
Freakbeat is kind of the same as Garage Rock, but from the UK (and Europe). Imagine that standard 60's Beat is a bit like British Invasion sound in the US - both eventually got "freaky" sounding with the fuzz guitars added and other tough sounds/arrangements. I the US they call it Garage Rock, in the UK Freakbeat. As far as I know it was penned by Phil Smee (Waldo's design studio and compiler of Rubbles), while trying to find a suitable term for UK stuff that was beyond Beat, but not yet Psych... this was in the early 80's though, as far as I know.
Sounds like Cream got drunk and covered "Can't Explain" by the Who.
lol
Country Joe and the Fish said, "Hey we can do a rip on this!" 🤠

And we found each other Thomas:) I think I missed this message. You’re the best!
played this to my indie obsessed daughter....she loves it 😀😉
Elayne Young I can't blame her, as a lot of the indie kids back in the day lapped this stuff up alongside Talulah Gosh or Spacemen 3.
Us old timers love it too.....can hear a lot of influences in more modern music that hark back to this era...not a bad thing
Makes me happy to hear:)
Omg this is fire. Killer track
This is everything...
Killer Killer psych - thanks for this awesome post! ☺★♫

how do you define "freakbeat", exactly? I'm just curious; this seems like a great standard garage rock track with some juicy fuzz guitar.
