The Fantastic Dee-Jays - The Fantastic Dee-Jays (1966)



Above-average local beat-garage LP by Pittsburgh maniacs who later transformed into the Swamp Rats. Two killer tracks (also out on 45) have been comp'd on Hipsville vol 1 but there's some other good stuff too, though more beat than garage. Some tracks have a lo-fi dawn of man feel, such as "Apache". They had several 45s as well. The old boot reissue has some sleeve wear from the copy that was used. [PL] Acid Archives

a bit too wistful and one dimensional for my taste, also sound quality not so good. thanks for sharing it though.

Hi Lisa, Do you have any information on the Swamp Rats? I have the disk Disco Still Sucks, and it is wonderful, but I have been looking for the dis by them called Rat Tracks. The track listing on Discogs shows some tracks that I have not seen before. !?! Mark (Texas USA)
