Les Troggs - Wild Thing (1966) EP

Extended Play frances de 1966 de esta maravillosa banda inglesa.
Aqui encontraremos el tema que los hizo famosos, "Wild Thing" tema escrito por Chip Taylor (Tio de Angelina Jolie, que chico es el mundo).
Luego de idas y vueltas con el productor que deseaba grabar "Wild Thing" como lado B de un tema de Looving Spoonful, tuvieron que esperar afuera del estudio hasta que se hiciera un hueco y pudieran grabar.
La realidad es que cuando fueron llamados a grabar estaban tan excitados que grabaron "Wild Thing" y "With a girl like you" en dos tomas y solo 10 minutos.
El disco se completa con tres temas, que muestran a la banda en su etapa de inicio, con la agresividad y la locura a flor de piel.
Una belleza.

Always a great pleasure to see and listen to the Troggs;great wild songs and fantastic hits.French EPs were very nice things.A "souvenir" of 1967,this year I bought the 2 French EPs of the Doors"Break on Through"&"Light my fire"with magnificent orange colored cover.A few months after I bought the album and sold for nothing the 2 EPs(all titles were on the LP).Today EPs are selling around I think 200 euros?.The principal in the fabulous sixties was to discover music and not only to buy for collection.

Thank you very much Jean.
I wasn´t even born in the sixties, and yours is a very complete contribution.
