I own an album with 10 different versions of "Louie Louie" on it.

[LynneSin]

Not kidding you, I wish I was.

I suppose I lived a strange childhood.

But then again I'm figured out what possessed me to buy not one, but two albums by a group called "Box of Frogs". It makes less sense than the 2 Christian Rock albums I own.

I have a strange, fucked up vinyl collection

[BlueJazz]

1. I like the Versions by Stan Kenton or...

..Maynard Ferguson. :evilgrin:

[LynneSin]

2. Not on there, but the Rice University Marching Owl Band is

:eyes:

[DemBones DemBones]

3. Now, that is bizarre!

I love it. :7

"Louie, Louie, Oh, baby, We gotta go now" (shaking hips to the beat)

[LynneSin]

8. What frightens me - there are actually several different albums...

containing nothing but Louie Louie

This is what I found on Amazon which is NOT my album

13. My two favorite versions are not on there.

A ska version by Toots and the Maytalls and one by the original Flamin' Groovies, which is on the CD version of Teenage Head.

[LynneSin]

15. I bought this back in the early 80s - did Ska even exist then

:shrug:

[BurtWorm]

16. Ska existed in the early 1960s.

I don't know when Toots recorded his Louie Louie, though. Probably late 1960s.

4. When's your birthday?

I am so getting you a regulation sized panty-raid ladder.

[RetroLounge]

5. "Box of Frogs" ??

Remaining members of the Yardbirds, if I remember correctly. Had a pretty good first album!

6. Who are the artists?

Please please please?

[LynneSin]

10. Here's the link, I found the album on Amazon

Which was actually one of THREE all Louie, Louie albums

:eyes:

12. Ha ha!

I like the version by "The Last." They're trying to sound like The Doors.

B-)

[Magrittes Pipe]

7. The Sonics' version rips ass.

[AntiCoup2K4]

9. Does that include the Black Flag version?

Because if it doesn't, you got ripped off!

Louie Louie was supposed to become our state song, but some idiot Repuke stopped it.

[LynneSin]

11. Yes, Black Flag version is on the album

14. In my Zappa collection I have Louie Louie all the fuck over the place

I couldn't begin to count the number of Louie Louie's in that collection.

[Kat45]

17. I have quite a Zappa collection, and I dont remember Louie Louie on it

Did he throw in the riffs here and there? Please explain. :shrug:

[Rabrrrrrr]

18. Yeah, the Louie Louie riff is all over the place

that was one of his conceptual continuity riffs, along with snippets from Stravinsky and some other stuff.
