shadows of knight

After the British beat invasion of the States in the early 60's so many of the young groups there were taking the sound and finding their own version of it.
"Performing in and around Chicago's northwest suburbs in 1964 and 1965, the Shadows of Knight became the house band at The Cellar in Arlington Heights, Illinois. They attracted over 500 teenagers every Saturday and Sunday at the "Cellar" for over six months". The place must have been buzzing.
John Peel played this in his first ever punk show in Nov 1976. It was a revelation to many that heard it for the first time. Here's "Light Bulb Blues" released in 1966. A superb outburst of garage punk angst.
