THE RINGERS

Let Them Be Known LP - Break 001
Let Them Be Known CD - Break 002

 
The Ringers were more than just another typical '60s L.A. garage band among the myriad in that city to be infected with Beatlemania. The fact that they have remained unknown to even some of the most ardent devotees of mid-'60s rock is an injustice that is at last being corrected all these decades down the track. The Ringers' originally released output consisted of just three 45s that were issued between the years of 1964 and 1966, and a Peru-only LP in 1970. The CD version presents the band's complete output incl. their 65/66 beat´n`garage recordings, marvelous late 60´s popsounds and a peruvian only Rock LP from 1970. The Vinyl LP presents the band´s most significant beat ´n`garage recordings. including four single sides from the mid- `60s and six prviously unreleased recordings from the same period.


"Snake Pit" and the superb Them/ Seeds hybrid "Ask Me No Questions" are prime mid 60´s US Garage Punk that would´ve been comfartably at home on "Nuggets"
