FLAMIN' GROOVIES

 ROY LONEY, CYRIL JORDAN, TIM LYNCH, DANNY MIHM, GEORGE ALEXANDER

plus JIM DICKINSON, and THE FLAME-ETTES

One of America's greatest, most influential, and legendary cult bands, Flamin' Groovies came out 

of the San Francisco area in 1965 playing greasy, bluesy, rock & roll dashed with a liberal sprinkling 

of British Invasion panache, in an era soon to be dominated by hippie culture and hyperextended 

raga-rock freakouts. Caught in a double bind of playing the wrong kind of music at the wrong time

 (as well as not looking the part), the Groovies were almost completely forgotten as the 

Fillmore/Avalon Ballroom scenes, dominated by the Dead, the Jefferson Airplane, et al., rendered 

them anachronistic. The plain truth, however, was that despite not being in tune with the zeitgeist, 

the Groovies made great music, and managed to sustain a career that lasted for over two decades

Miriam Linna once opined that the Roy Loney-era lineup of the Flamin' Groovies suggested 

what the Rolling Stones  would have sounded like if they'd sworn their allegiance to the sound 

and style of Sun Records instead of Chess Records.

If one wants to buy this theory (and it sounds reasonable to me), then Teenage Head 

was the Groovies' alternate-universe version of Sticky Fingers, an album that delivered 

their toughest rock & roll beside their most introspective blues workouts. 

(In his liner notes to Buddha's 1999 CD reissue of Teenage Head, 

Andy Kotowicz writes that Mick Jagger noticed the similarities between the two albums 

and thought the Groovies did the better job.) While the Flamin' Groovies didn't dip into the blues often, 

they always did right by 'em, and "City Lights" and "Yesterday's Numbers" find them embracing the mournful 

soul of the blues to superb effect, while their covers of "Doctor Boogie" and "32-20" honor the originals 

while adding a energy and attitude that was all their own. And the rockers are among the best stuff 

this band ever put to tape, especially "High Flying Baby," "Have You Seen My Baby?," 

and the brilliant title track. And unlike Flamingo, 

Teenage Head sounds just as good as it deserves to...(All Music)
