Smile your way through two previously unreleased1960s garage/r&b fusion songs by The Teacher Haters - in fact, we challenge you to get through these tracks without smiling. Even the name of the band invokes a chuckle as it suggests what these guys are about - and that's the P-A-R-T-Y. Straight out of the 60s comes a group that could have been played with Sam The Sham & The Pharaohs back in the day. These whimsical works are deceptively deep as they take us to a time when garage punk fused with R&B. Big Pig Alley is uncomplicated, and that's what makes it great - it sounds like a bunch of college guys having a good time, writing lyrics on the spot: "If you're lookin' for romance, take a train, take a plane... or a raft to France." The guys have something other than romance on their minds as they chug along on acoustic guitar and trash can drums (and possibly other things). What really makes the track, though, is the witchy background voice - the performance is loose enough, while the witch is doing his own thing entirely. The witch returns on side B in the up-tempo, dance-ready Cut Loose. No obscure artistry here - these guys tell you exactly what the song is for in the title. In fact, just in case you missed it, they state their thesis in the opening lines: "I wanna shake all night, I wanna do it right, I wanna dance, dance, dance with you... " All of their collegiate effort is put toward getting you to move your hips in this groovy, rockabilly-flavored mix. Snap up the mid-century college party in a box that is PP006 - and hope your tables don't get too scuffed up from people dancing on them. The fun that The Teacher Haters had in making these tracks is all here and available to you - whether you want to go on a nostalgic trip through a 60s coed party, or host your own shindig where dancing is mandatory.
