4 "Jack Be Nimble" Dakota: A nursery rhyme for budding players.
5 "Nick Nack Paddy Wack" The Valentines: Pre-AC/DC Bon Scott
6 "Fudgie" Co Co's Rubber Band: Just wrong. Illegal in some states.
7 "Down To The Wire" Yellow Hand: Peppified Buffalo Springfield cover.
8 "Creeper Crawler" Groovie Goolies: The TV cartoon band, not the human one. Tho I’d love to hear their take on it.

13 "Sour Grapes " The Yellow Brick Road: Chock full of bratty punk snot
14 "I'm Gonna Find a Cave" Banana Splits: Good. More reverb that way
15. "Sometimes Good Guys Don’t Wear White" Las Dillys Sisters: Don’t dig the Chiclet Rock Standells cover? These kiddies will cut you.
16. "Sha La La" ? Mark & The Mysterians: As Linc would say, “Solid.”
17 "Come On Down Maryann" Ohio Express: Talented teenager Joey Levine is singing. He wrote the song above. And the one below.
18 "Try It" Ohio Express: Standells suggestive “hit” got banned.
19 "Delicious" Us: Uh, do you have a BG-song cousin?
20 "Tasty (To Me)" Jerry Blavat: You’re dirty sweet and you’re my song!
21 "Summertime, Summertime" The Jamies: Because we don’t hear a hurdy-gurdy jamboree often enough.
22 "The R.A.T.T.L.E.S.N.A.K.E. Song" unknown: By all means, if you are in the presence of a deadly snake, pick it up & take it to the zoo.
23 "Special Delivery" California Poppy Pickers: Papers, please. Oh, THAT kind of “poppy” pickin’... a 1910 Fruitgum Company Cover.
24 "Shake It" The Pop Corn Generation aka Mark: Yes, just Mark. He’s like Cher and Madonna that way. 1910 FGC singer.
25 "Shirley Applegate" 1910 Fruitgum Company: Why Mark, we were just talking about you...
26 "Indian Giver" 1910 Fruitgum Co.: It’s a trifecta! BTW, the family name is Gutkowski, so this “Mark” thing kinda makes sense.
27 "Indian Giver" The Ramones: If Joey were hindu, this song w/b his “free-from-birth certificate.” The guy totally got BG.
28 "Makin’ Love" The Sloths: Kick-ass, local L.A. 1960s garage band R&B courtesy of the Ganz Manor.
29 "Now That It’s Over" The Unclaimed: A single made from a rehearsal tape. Yes, they were THAT good.

31 "Without Her" The Rumors: You didn’t hear it from me, but this hypnotic rocker kicks ass. Want. No, NEED.
32. "Cry, Girl" Kendells: Who’s a big boy?! Actually, a therapeutic lil’ garage stomper. Maybe saved some gal from getting knifed.
33 "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker" Las Brujas: A Marky Ramoneless Mariachi Ramones
Also spun: “My Girlfriend is a Witch” by The Cattanooga Cats, which the Unclaimed used to play live. Shelly back announces this song, but it ain’t on the podcast because of a recording glitch.—Becky
