MB 2 THE BAYTOVENS MY HOUSE 7" 10.2020
1 MY HOUSE
2 LUV LOOK AWAY
Recorded in June 1966 at the legendary Golden State Recorders, and originally
intended as the group's debut release, these 2 killers remained unreleased until
2007 when both sides appeared on Big Beat's 'You Got Yours' CD. Now they're on
high quality vinyl where they ALWAYS belonged, with expert remastering supervised
by Alec Palao! Limited to 750 copies.

MB 4 THE BUMMERS I CAN'T IMAGE 7" 10.2020
1 I CAN'T IMAGINE
2 L.S.D.
The Bummers from Royal Oak, Michigan were together as a band for a total of nine
months. During that time, however, they were a vital part of the Michigan rock and
roll scene. In 1967, they cut 8 copies of an acetate at Falcon Records. Over the
years, 3 have survived and this dynamite new 45 has been spliced together using
the best sections of each disc, expertly remastered by Alec Palao and FINALLY
available on vinyl over 50 years after the original recording! Includes insert
and rubber-stamped inner sleeve. Limited to 750 copies.

MB 5 THE VIPERS PRETTY LIES 7" 10.2020
1 PRETTY LIES
2 FIND ANOTHER
Legendary '80s garage rockers THE VIPERS shouldn't be an unfamiliar name to anyone
with more than a passing interest in that early-mid '80s period of '60s garage punk
revival, issuing their debut long-player 'Outta The Nest' in 1984. Around the same
time, they were also recording numerous demos (including these 2 sides), some of
which were gathered onto a cassette-only release, 'Not So Pretty...Not So New
(Unreleased Demos)' in 1988. This 45 represents their first appearance on vinyl!
Limited to 750 copies. Comes with 2-sided fold-over lyric sheet, rubber-stamped
inner sleeve, sticker and guitar pick!

MB 6 THE VEJTABLES HIDE YOURSELF 7" 02.2021
1 HIDE YOURSELF
2 GOOD THINGS ARE HAPPENING
Californian legends THE VEJTABLES should need no real introduction here, starting
out on the equally legendary Autumn label (home to the Beau Brummels, Mojo Men etc).
Their 1st 45, 'I Still Love You' (produced by Sly Stewart aka Sly Stone) was a
sizeable national hit in late '65, a fantastic combination of folk rock and British
Invasion sounds. Another single followed with less success, then sadly the label
folded, leaving the group in a state of limbo. After some personnel changes (incl.
Richard Fortunato, ex-Preachers, and pre-WC Fields Memorial Electric String Band/ESB),
they recorded some more sides at Golden State Recorders in April/May '66, this time
in a more experimental, proto-psych style. From these sessions, another single
emerged: 'Shadows' b/w 'Feel The Music'. Recorded at the sessions, but unreleased
at the time, were the 2 sides on this record. First issued by Big Beat in 1994,
these new masters are previously unreleased mono mixes, taken from the original
studio acetate. Includes super-cool double-sided insert. Limited to 750 copies.

MB 8 THE CREES 4 MISUNDERSTANDING 7" 04.2021
1 MISUNDERSTANDING
2 LOOKING AT YOUR PICTURE
Mojo-Bone Rekkids deliver another killer 45-2 PREVIOUSLY UNISSUED tracks taken
from the lone surviving acetate, recorded by this obscure Chicago, IL quartet at
International Recording Company in October 1966. They won a quarter-hour (!!)
recording session, presumably as part of a Battle Of The Bands contest or similar;
their prize certificate indicates that the recordings would be "forwarded to several
record companies for their consideration" - reasonable to assume that nothing came
of it, as no releases were forthcoming and the band were lost in obscurity...
UNTIL NOW! Expertly remastered by archivist Alec Palao, these tracks are now
finally getting the recognition they deserve! Limited to 750 copies.
