• Track Listing

Sounding like a proto-punk Beatles, the Knickerbockers exploded outta nowhere in ’65 with their #20 hit "Lies." The New Jersey quartet signed to the L.A. indie label Challenge and recorded three LPs of originals and covers. Now, Sundazed (who chose the Knickerbockers as one of their first artists) comes forth with the definitive Knickerbockers set: their Challenge LPs and singles plus newly discovered demos and unheard acetates: "Lies," "Money," "The Jerk," "Downtown," "Just One Girl," "Twine Time," "I Love," "Chuck Berry Medley," "Playgirl," "You’re Bad," "One Track Mind," "Turn to Me" and more. Rockers, ballads, psychedelia…80 tracks plus a big booklet benefiting from band scrapbooks kept by the mother of brothers Beau and John Charles! Sundazed.
