The Knickerbockers Rockin With The Knickerbockers Vinyl

Limited green colored vinyl LP pressing. Exploding from AM radio speakers everywhere in 1965, The Knickerbockers' "Lies" is a certified '60s classic. Much has been made over it's sonic similarity to the Beatles, particularly the Lennon-esque lead vocals. True, it is remarkable in that regard but what is often overlooked is just how great the song is in it's own right. Written by band members Beau Charles and Buddy Randell, it is a superbly crafted composition that could have been a hit for any number of artists. That the Knickerbockers' ferocious version sounds like it was ripped from the soundtrack to A Hard Day's Night is just gravy. But great as it is, there is so much more to the band's story than their biggest hit.
