[edit] Release Data

This album was released in 1984 as an LP by AIP Records (as #AIP-10012).

[edit] Notes on the Tracks

The Northwest is "Louie Louie" country, and three different versions are included here, including a cover of a follow-up song by Paul Revere and the Raiders. The Wilde Knights are well known for the widely reissued "Beaver Patrol" (featured on Pebbles, Volume 1 and Essential Pebbles, Volume 1, among others); this song is from their follow-up single. However, these Squires are not the same band as the legendary group, the Squires that were featured on the Pebbles, Volume 1 and Pebbles, Volume 2 LP's.
