The Kingsmen -- In Person
The first Lp by the notorious Kingsmen. In Person is a phony live album, with the crowd obviously dubbed in. Even with the fake crowd it somehow doesn't take away from the music, which sounds just like Joey Dee and The Starliters, just more raw and raunchy. Of course it features Louie Louie, which was popularized due to scandal. Although after their scandalous popularity the band hit some internal troubles, one guys mom bought the band name because he wanted to sing, some of the others got cheesed and left, he realized he sucked, then they end up a lip sync band ... yadda yadda ... "we gotta go now!"
