The Waistcoats "Stark Raving Mod" 2000 + "Surf & Beat" 1998 Vol. 1 + 2 - EP's

From the land that gave us great artists such as Rembrandt and Van Gogh come the Dutch masters of '60's beat — The Waistcoats.Influenced by the mod sounds of the Who, the Hollies, the Kinks, and the Easybeats, these Groningen groove-meisters are an instant party of shagadelic proportions. This collection gathers their finest recent recordings, available for the first time ever on CD. Swing to their original instrumentals like "Little MGB" and "Bongo Time," or check out their excellent covers of the Who's "Can't Explain," Jimmie Page's "She Just Satisfies," or Don Covay & Steve Cropper's "Sookie Sookie." It's a smash, baby! Don't get even, get mod—Stark Raving Mod!trax:

Cheers RYP. I'd got a bit behind with TZ so I posted my request before I'd come across the rule change. I think the new style works well as it keeps everything nice and tidy.

Thanks for this, never heard them before

Are they very different from another Dutch band, The Mashed Potatoes?
