The Primates – We Are The Primates (2024 Vinyl reissue) 320



* This was the only album released by this fine LA Garage band, the back cover is from the 1986 original release on discogs, I don't keep any art work for albums or CD's , my only interest is the music!! *

* This 1986 album by The Primates remain as the only recording ever released by these four 60s r&b and garage fans.

Combining great originals (‘I Ain’t Like You’, ‘Bad Luck’, ‘Born Loser’) and versions (check their great take on Q65’s ‘I Got Nightmares’ or Neil Sedaka’s ‘I Go Ape’), “We Are The Primates” remains as a wild, raw, party album that every fan of garage music should own.

Originally published on Greg Shaw’s very own Voxx (Bomp! sublabel focused on revival garage/psychedelia) and produced by Shaw himself, this valuable musical document portraits the essence of the L.A. 80s garage scene. *

* The band were Brett Miller and Ted Edlefsen, sporting Vox guitars, and Erik Bluhm on vocals, with Brian Corrigan on the drums. *
