Description:
The Trashmen, a Minneapolis band, recorded the 1:20-minute "Surfin Bird" in the basement of George Garrett's record shop in the fall of 1963. Recorded in the basement of George Garrett's record store. When they played the tape to Bill Diehl, a DJ at Minneapolis radio station WDGY, he said it was too short and suggested they re-record it. The Trashmen were taken by Garrett to Kay Bank Studios four blocks away and re-recorded. Released in November on the Garrett label, "Surfin Bird" received airplay on WDGY, selling 3,000 copies in its first week and reaching #3 in Minneapolis in its second week. The record was distributed by Soma Records and was a hit everywhere, climbing to #4 in the U.S. in January 1964. The hit hit song "Crazy" galvanized Minneapolis teens, and many teen bands visited Kay Bank Studios to make records with Garrett, including The Gestures, who went on to become one of the most popular teen bands of all time. Some of these groups, like The Gestures and The Castaways, had national hits.This compilation is a collection of Soma Records/Kay Bank Studios-related material that captures the vibrancy of the Minneapolis teen scene from 1964 to 1966. It is full of the charm of the local teen garage scene, which was different from that of New York and Los Angeles, more down-to-earth and more "Bird Fever" than "British Fever".
