Distortions (Yellow Vinyl) [VINYL]

Minneapolis was their home turf. But in the decades that followed, appreciation for "Distortions" swelled to tidal wave proportions among fans of amped-up, ramped-up, balls-to-the-wall rock 'n' roll. Headlined by two red-hot, stone-cold killers, "Action Woman" and "Soul Searchin'" - both penned by producer Warren Kendrick - "Distortions" is arguably the greatest private-press garage band album of the era. The Litter formed in 1966 as a merger between two popular Twin Cities combos, the Victors and the Tabs. They quickly established a reputation as the wildest, loudest band on the scene. Bill Strandlof was responsible for the incendiary, feedback-laced guitar work on "Action Woman" - a local hit for the band when released as a single in January 196 - but by the summer he'd been replaced by another fast-fingered guitar slinger, Zippy Caplan. Caplan's fiery leads helped ignite the remainder of "Distortions" , including smoking interpretations of the Who's "Substitute", the Small Faces' "Whatcha Gonna Do About It", an intense reading of "Codine" and a comprehensive reconstruction-destruction of "I'm A Man". Pure, unfiltered '60s garage rock excitement! Product Details Artist: LITTER Title: Distortions (Yellow Vinyl) Catalogue Number: LPSUND5461C Barcode: 90771421616 Label: SUNDAZED MUSIC. INC.
