Details
licensed reissue on 7' vinyl of the killer garage single by the Other Half published by GNP Crescendo in 1966, and never reprinted since!
The Other Half was a 5 piece band that included guitar wizard Randy Holden who later went on to join Blue Cheer. TOH members were originally from L.A., then moved to San Francisco in the mid-sixties. Their sound was US Garage Rock in the vein of Music Machine, the Sonics and the Wailers. Mr Pharmacist is their best known and much sought after single; it was covered by The Fall with great success in the 80's. Originals go for big money, as do copies of a 12" 4 track version from Germany. But this is garage rock, it belongs on a 7" single... and now the track is finally re-released in all it's MONO glory!
On the flip side 'I've Come So Far' is a slower number backed with some awesome piano (reminiscent of the Seeds) and great vocals to boot. Irresistible... The release is on a high quality 42 gram 7' vinyl 45 RPM Mono as per the original!
