 | | The Los Angeles-based Standells drummer when ''Dirty Water" hit the airwaves, Dodd is the one who added the raspy opening that set the mood for the attitude-laced song. | | | Dodd, now 60, is still stunned by the odds-defying popularity in Boston of a song that peaked at number 11 on the pop charts back in 1966. | | | And for a city whose reputation was built on lofty thinkers and old-money bluebloods, the song's lyrics would have seemed unlikely to command such staying power. |

| | VH1.com : The Standells : Biography |
| | The Standells never had a stable lineup; bass players were constantly leaving (John Fleck, aka John Fleckenstein, who was briefly in an early version of Love, held the spot for a while), and Dick Dodd went solo in 1968, the year they released their last single. | | | Their albums were quite inconsistent -- in fact, one of them, consisting of covers of big mid-'60s hits, was altogether dispensable -- which makes it advisable for all but the truly committed to look for greatest hits compilations that selectively weed out the best stuff. | | | Tower, as was the case with most of its artists, didn't apply intelligent long-range planning to the band's career, issuing too many albums at once. |

| | The Standells' legacy as pioneers of punk is impossible to ignore. | | | The Standells were masters of that quintessential 60's sound and are the Godfathers of garage rock. | | | This CD contains some worthwhile music, but also shows why the Standells were unable to maintain their popularity. |

| | This put the Standells in a bind because they were about to record their first album Standells in person at PJ's on Liberty Records. | | | The result, a classic, is listed as one of the most influential songs in Rock history. | | | The song died - and so did the group's popularity and hopes of another hit record. |

| | The rockabilly sound reached the West coast and mutated into a wild, mostly instrumental sound called surf music. | | | Some of the better known band of this genre include The Sonics, Question Mark (?) and the Mysterians, and The Standells. | | | This movement, later known as Garage Rock, gained a new audience when record labels started re-issuing compilations of the original singles; the best known of these is a series called Nuggets. |

| | The Standells - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The Standells were wrongly thought by some to be from Massachusetts, due to the lyrics of "Dirty Water", written by their producer Ed Cobb. | | | The Standells were a 1960s rock and roll band from Los Angeles, California who, like The Seeds, exemplified the garage rock style. | | | Lowell George, who would go on to play with Little Feat, briefly played guitar in the Standells prior to their breakup in 1968. |

| | However, a couple of Standells tracks that may or may not exist in releaseable form intrigue this fan of garage rock. | | | I refer of course to the tracks the Standells performed on the Munsters. | | | The discographies out there indicate nothing that sounds close (although there's a 1964 single on Liberty called "Peppermint Beatles", but I'd bet that isn't it). |

| | Rock and Roll Doctor explores the genius that animated Little Feat--from George's early bands The Standells and Garage, to his work with Frank Zappa, landmark albums such as Feats Don't Fail Me Now and The Last Record Album, and his later production work with Linda Ronstadt and the Grateful Dead. | | | George's offbeat sense of humor and surreal lyrics became a Little Feat trademark, making songs like "Fat Man in the Bathtub" and "Dixie Chicken" unforgettable. | | | George's colorful childhood (he lived next door to Hollywood idol Errol Flynn) is covered in depth--as is his solo career after Little Feat that was cut short tragically--but most of this book portrays his highly productive period with this great rock and roll band. |
