Notes on the tracks

The unique "Good Times" might be the garage rock song that is least inspired by the British Invasion; the song was written by Allen and Ray Schram about an apartment they were renting in Irving, Texas. It was just a joke, but a friend, who was a dancer on the Ron Chapman TV show Sump'N Else, arranged a meeting with Chapman at his house. He played the lacquer demo down to the line "go out for entertainment, I park behind the Twin" (a drive-in movie that played edited X-rated films in Grand Prairie, and stopped it. He called GPC records and they pressed 100 copies. The night it was to be played on the Jimmy Rabbit radio show, (a popular KLIF 1190 DJ show), Robert Kennedy was shot and killed in California and KLIF started playing somber classical music; "Good Times" missed its release date.
