We The People (Orlando, Florida)




"In The Past"

"You Burn Me Up And Down"

"When I Arrive"





ETA: In the comments for "In the Past" Wayne Proctor of We The People shows up. He mentions how another act recently took WTP's backing track on "In The Past", wiped the vocal, and added their own singer. He says it isn't worth the cost/aggravation of fighting.

The Pride of Bunkie

This is a list of the 100 rarest garage punk singles of the 1960s.

The Barracudas - "Baby Get Lost" (1965)

According to the above list, only 4 copies of this single are known to exist.



This raucous screamer from Bunkie high school students is considered a classic by collectors. It sounds kinda odd b/c the record was accidentally speeded up during pressing (a not uncommon occurrence for startup record companies that could not afford a repressing). This version has been slowed down and probably sounds more like originally intended.

Band members:

John Haas (vocals)
Terry Fontanille (lead guitar)
Alex Haas (drums)
Tommy McNabb (bass)

The Barracudas of Bunkie:





John Haas would go on to the fondly-remembered Isosceles Popsicle.

Anybody know any of these guys? Or anything about them? Or the Zandak label of Alexandria? Something tells me there is an interesting story here...
