Although there's no denying that image is important for bands it's the music that stands the test of time and here
The Standells do not disappoint. Best known for the garage standard 'Dirty Water' (inspiration for London's legendary Dirty Water Club) which has been the stand out track on countless psyche compilations. 'Medication' was recorded in 1966 and was the opening track of the 'Dirty Water' album and the rolling bassline, tremolo guitar and whispered vocals-line have obviously left an influence on
The Jesus and Mary Chain and
Spacemen 3.
