More Info:

Repressing. Digitally re-mastered two-fer from the American Underground rockers, containing a pair of their early albums on one CD: Flamingo (1970) and Teenage Head (1971). The Groovies carried the untamed spirit of Rock 'N' Roll from their San Francisco Psych/Jugband origins, to the proto-Punk streets of New York and London, to their undisputed throne as Power Pop kings! Here are two of their seminal albums (and two of the most seminal albums ever!), caught in the middle of their flawless trajectory, released on Kama Sutra because they wanted to be on the same label as the Lovin' Spoonful, and exuding the same instant legend, pure joy and Rock 'N' Roll vibe as their label-mates... but even more so! The song 'Teenage Head' itself is one of the founding classics of Punk Rock to be sure, as much as the Modern Lovers' 'Roadrunner' or MC5's 'Kick Out the Jams'... and here are a whole bunch more!
