Many of the new bands that Rocksteady and John in particular feature here at WYMA are direct descendants of this great lineage.
We will lead with one of my all-time favorite songs, a certified classic and prototypical garage rocker, "Psychotic Reaction" by the Count Five, from 1965.
The Count Five were from San Jose, CA. "Psychotic Reaction" was a top 5 single, as big in its day as say a Taylor Swift or Maroon 5 hit today.
If you have ideas for songs you'd like to see in this feature, please feel free to include them in comments.

Pretty much anything on 'Uptight Tonight: The Ultimate 60's Garage Collection' is a great place to start. Of course, Psychotic Reaction is on that comp.
If you can find 'em, the 'Back from the Grave' series or 'Fuzz, Flaykes & Shakes' are great and have many of the rarer gems to be found.
