[edit] Release Data

This album was released in 1985 as an LP by AIP Records (as #AIP-10029).

[edit] Notes on the Tracks

A 10-inch vinyl album has recently been released of all of the songs by the Dovers, considered one of the finest garage rock bands. Both sides of the first single by the Human Expression are given on the Pebbles, Volume 10 LP and Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 3; this song is the "B" side from their second single. The Mugwumps are not the New York band that helped spawn the Mamas and the Papas and the Lovin' Spoonful.
