I really don't know. I am hoping someone reading this blog and posta comment if they know.</p><p>These records do not show up on any Midniters discography nor on any music and record internet sites like Discogs or 45Cat. There is no information in any book or record guide that I have been able to locate. Therefore I can only speculate. Are they reissues? Are they bootlegs?</p><p>Eddie Torres who owned Whittier records did reissue some of the original Whittier 45s but with different labels.You can find my list and scans on my blog. On some he used ablum tracks as the A or B side so that collectors could get new songs that they didn't have on 45. </p><p>But when and why? I know that some labels, Dottie for instance reissued 45s in the late 1960's so if these are legit Eddie Torres reissues I would put them as being issued in the 1968-1970 range after the band had broken up. I could very easily be wrong and I hope that someoue out there can correct me.</p><p>I have seven such records and I hope that there are more. If anyone has any that are not on this post I would love to have scans of such records. Please leave any and all comments on this post.</p><p>WHITTIER 500XX "Love Special Delivery" b/w "Don't Go Away"</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgN4jU-CL3liHuuShd0skzWhF_vQOP-01eQ7Tlz7IYYYNTJ9pyodemTy8V_CWxUYIm9KjI_AKudJz-jFp4m4HbI_ZPQjoJCJpfMK224nv5r_Clj-Rxu2tE8U3pyHB5ZOuh8VjfiSBc-0SoudRHP2US9mBKRl51upylCwTCa7jlB5C9Y9ZiJ0I_JhKb-1EM/s1600/Thee%20Midniters%20-%20LSD%20(Black%20Label).JPG" style="margin-left: 1em;

He led the popular East Los Angeles band, Mark and The Escorts who recorded two singles for GNP Crescendo Records. Mark has also recorded as a solo artist for Ode Records (produced by Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Lou Adler), Capitol Records and his group Tango for A&M Records. His songs have been recorded by such artists as Herb Alpert, Trini Lopez, Chan Romero and his late father Lalo Guerrero, known as the father of Chicano Music. Mark has performed in concert with his own bands and with Redbone, Eric Burdon, El Chicano, Tierra, Lalo Guerrero and many others. As a Chicano and East LA music historian, Mark has written over several hundred articles, hosts a radio podcast, interviewed hundreds of artists, has been a guest on numerous radio and television programs, consulted for museums and lectured at universities. Mark's 1972 song and record, "I'm Brown" has been twice displayed in 2009 and 2022 at the Grammy Museum in an exhibit called "Songs Of Conscious Sounds Of Freedom"</p><p>Mark Guerrero's "East LA Music Stories" is a series of interviews with artists who are part of the history of the music that has emerged from East Los Angeles. Mark interviews Eastside legends such as Little Willie G, Chan Romero, Little Ray Jimenez, Lawrence Perez of The Premiers and Sal Murillo of the Blendells. Sit back and listen as Mark takes you on a journey back in time in the artists own words to when the Eastside Sound was heard on local radio stations and at venues in the greater Los Angeles area and beyond.</p><p>Links for each program are provided:</p><p>Episode 1: Anthony Baray Of The Emeralds</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Released in 2004 by Vampisoul Records, PACHUCO SOUL is a two-record set of 30 tracks culled from the archives of the Rampart & Gordo label.<br />
<br />
The tracks are a mix of garage, rock, soul and funk. A collection of vintage East LA grooves.<br />
The compact disc version, also released in 2004 has already been reviewed on my blog.<br />
<br />
The killer tracks here that make it worth the hunt are the Salas Brothers "One Like Mine", the Majestics "(I Love Her So Much) It Hurts Me" & Willie G's "Brown Baby"<br />
<br />
Also included are some certified rarities like Sarah James & The Soul Babies "Takin' Care Of Business" and Sammy lee & The Summits "Hey Joe"<br />

<br />
I spun the dial a lot especially late at night the Mighty 1090, XERB, XPRS, KRLA, KHJ, KFWB, KDAY, KRLD, KALI, KGFJ and on.<br />
<br />
I remember hearing Wolfman Jack and Huggy Boy on the various stations doing radio promos for a set of oldies albums you could order through the mail. A collection of over 80 of your favorites.<br />
<br />
From 1967-1969 I was a disc jockey on the college radio station KELA, Huskie Radio, the voice of East Los Angeles College. In need of some tune for my oldies show I ordered a set.<br />
<br />
To my surprise they did not come with album jackets but came in white paper sleeves. Not knowing it at the time this was my first encounter with "bootlegs"<br />
<br />
Over the years I have seen this same set of oldies pressed on different labels in record stores, The saet I have used girls names on the record label.<br />
<br />
I can't even guess how many of these were sold by mail by various record stations but I am sure they are getting scarce.<br />
<br />

Released in 1968 on the Rampart records label (Rampart 3304), "The Village Callers Live" was recorded mostly in one night. At the time the band was one of the hottest on the Eastside circuit and when he heard the band, producer Eddie Davis couldn't wait to put them on wax.<br />
<br />
The album was recorded very simply with a few overhead mikes and a "live" mix. The tracks on Side 1 of the LP claim to have been recorded live at the Plush Bunny in Pico Rivera on May 5, 1968 although "Hector" was recorded in the studio with the guys goofing around and making fun of their manager, Hector Rivera.<br />
<br />
Side 2 of the LP was recorded at I.D. Sound Studios in Hollywood California engineered bi Ivan Fisher and made "live"during a party at Teron Recording Studios in Hollywood engineered byTerry Dunavan.<br />
<br />
On the album Angela bell solos on "When You're Gone". Fuzzy & Ernie provide backing vocals for her on "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" " Stoned Soul Picnic" "The Frog" "Mississippi Delta" and the medley of Aretha Franklin hits. Fuzzy is the featured vocalist on "I Don't Need No Doctor" and Ernie solos on "99 1/2"<br />

<br />
The Village Callers were one of the finest R&B, Latin and Latin Jazz bands to come out of the east Los Angeles area.<br />
<br />
The band began as Marcy & The Imperials in the early 1960's with Marcy Alvarado as singer, guitarist & band leader. As members came and went the name of the band was changed to the Village Callers as suggested by band member Ernie Hernandez. The name comes from a Willie Bobo album titled "Village Caller."<br />
<br />
Some great singers had stints with the Village Callers over the 1960's & 1970's. Angie Bell from San Pedro. Ersi Arvisu befor she joined El Chicano. Al Anaya before he joined Thee Midniters and Geri Gonzalez.<br />
<br />
Latin percussionist Chuck Masten was added to the band really giving the band an extra Latin & Jazz flavor adding to their already R&B and oldies but goodies style.<br />
<br />
The band started playing the Eastside circuit and won The Battle Of The Bands at East Los Angeles College in 1967.<br />
<br />
With the band now ready to record, manager hector Rivera invited Eddie Davis to hear the band play live at the Plush Bunny. Eddie really liked the band and wanted to record them live as soon as possible. They would be recorded live at the Plush Bunny on another night. The album "The Village Callers Live" would be released on July 25, 1968 on Rampart records. This album will be reviewed in a VINYL CLASSICS post.<br />

<br />
Quentin Tarantino would thing enough of the song to include it on the soundtrack of hos 2019 movie "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood"<br />
<br />
<br />
On the strength of local airplay Eddie Davis would re-released "Hector" with a new flip "I'm Leaving" and use the same Rampart record number 659 on July 25, 1968.<br />

605 SOUTH - "NAH NAH BABY"/ELA<br />
<br />
Although the release date is unknown East LA Records recorded and pressed a single by the 605 South band. " Nah Nah Baby" was written and produced by Leonard Mamola. "ELA' was written by band leader Bobby Hernandez. The band was definitely out of the Los Angeles area as there is a 605 freeway that runs north and south.<br />

THEE IN-SET - "THEY SAY"/"MY HEART CRIES"<br />
<br />
Another band from Los Angeles, California Thee In-Set recorded a single for the Cal Omen label.<br />
Cal Omen was a small label run by Godfrey Kerr.<br />
<br />
"They Say" is a hard-driving, organ-based garage rock band sound and highly collectable for its sound and its rarity. "My Heart Cries" is a cover of a tune written & recorded by Etta (Etta James) & Harvey Fuqua. The Romancers recorded the same tune and turned it into an Eastside classic. Thee In-set's version is right up there with them, a truly fine ballad.<br />

MEEP MEEP & THE ROADRUNNER - "JUSTINE"/"B-FLAT BLUES"<br />
<br />
The band was probably named from the cartoon Wiley Coyote & The Roadrunner.<br />
<br />
In 1958, Don Harris & Dewey Terry would have a hit with a song titled "Justine' in 1958 for the Specialty label.<br />
<br />
In 1963, The Leggeriors recorded "Justine" for the Goliath label.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
In 1965, The Righteous Brother would record and same song "Justine" for the Moonglow label and so would the band Meep Meep & The Roadrunner for the Boomerang label. Oddly enough Meem Meep's B-Side was titled "B-Flat Blues", a tune written by The Righteous Brothers Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield.<br />

<br />
Over the years there have been many groups who have adopted the name The Montereys.I will preface this post with the fact that this information may or may not be true but my research has had me intrigued for years as to whether it is. The information I am posting here is a combination of information i found on the internet and the expertise of The White Doo Wop Collector.<br />
<br />
Band Members:<br />
<br />
Manuel Canez<br />
Tom Lopez<br />
Tom Rey<br />
Santos Cepeda<br />
Hector Aguilar?<br />
<br />
The band was first formed in the Bakersfield area but their recordings if they are all by the same group were recording around the Los Angeles, California area. They were known for their vocal group harmony and a couple of their records are quite rare.<br />
<br />
The band started out as the Four Escorts and recorded "My Special Girl"/"Do You Remember" released on Skyla Records in 1962.<br />

Later that year the Four Escorts changes their name to the Montereys and recorded an absolutely impossible to find record. It's only known existence was through the record collection of the late Dr, Dave Antrell. The record was recorded for the Trans American label was "Darlin' (Send Me A Letter"/'Darlin' (I Love You So). These two tracks are what the white doo wop sound is all about. I have had the two tracks pressed on my own Eastside Sound label.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuQ9JjkA4Jo_yj7XD3G4WncVwaKsfmPVAEtonbGtLBFg-YOgja1ws3kKZ992CoH7TJtkLw7OpvTFv1LjCHKI81xjdKrmqjr7Z0H_LUCq5CTIkrfB2aWhqhrv8cHFRnTXnBV_PLGxvocMO-w-wUwIMAXx23cRvkfxi5jqxLu51yW20zij8cp_utye8da1o/s600/Monterey%20-%20Darlin%20(I%20Love%20You%20So).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="548" data-original-width="600" height="365" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuQ9JjkA4Jo_yj7XD3G4WncVwaKsfmPVAEtonbGtLBFg-YOgja1ws3kKZ992CoH7TJtkLw7OpvTFv1LjCHKI81xjdKrmqjr7Z0H_LUCq5CTIkrfB2aWhqhrv8cHFRnTXnBV_PLGxvocMO-w-wUwIMAXx23cRvkfxi5jqxLu51yW20zij8cp_utye8da1o/w400-h365/Monterey%20-%20Darlin%20(I%20Love%20You%20So).jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div><br />

A final recorded credited to this Montereys band is "It Hurts Me So"/"Goodbye My Love" released on the Arwin in 1965. Of note "It Hurts Me So" has an awesome Northern Soul sound valued at over $500.<br />

In June 1968 ABC/Dunhill records would release "Midnight Confessions" The record would become a national hit and reach the Top 5 on both the U.S. and Canadian pop charts. It would not appear on any of the group's albums until a compilation album, "Golden Grass" was released in later that year.<br />

Going behind the record, the original recording was by the Evergreen Blues whose manager Lou Josie wrote the song. Their record contained a horn section and caught the ear of record producer/engineer Steve Barri, who was looking to produce a song for the Grass Roots that was a West Coast version of a Motown-style production. The song's backing track was recorded by the Wrecking Crew and the horn section was arranged by Jimmie Haskell.<br />
<br />
The Evergreen Blues single was release by Mercury Records seven months earlier in November, 1967.<br />
<br />
This clipping appeared in the November 25, 1967 issue of Billboard's $200,000 promotion of the single and the group.<br />

THE MEN FROM S.O.U.N.D. (circa 1966)<br />
<br />
(left to right: Tony Rodas, Richard Rosas, Mark Guerrero,<br />
George Ochoa, Ernie Hernandez)<br />
<br />
Band Members (1966-1968):<br />
<br />
Mark Guerrero (lead vocals, lead guitar)<br />
Richard Rosas (bass)<br />
Ernie Hernandez (drums, lead & harmony vocals)<br />
Tony Rodas (Farfisa organ)<br />
George Ochoa (lead vocals)<br />
Richard Mojarro (lead vocals, guitar, harmonica) 1966<br />
Richard Morin (lead vocals, guitar) 1968<br />
Steve Verdugo (lead vocals, electric piano) 1968<br />
<br />
The band began as Mark & The Escorts (SEE MY POST EASTSIDE BANDS - MARK & THE ESCORTS) who changed their name in 1966 to THE MEN FROM S.O.U.N.D. As you might expect is was a play on words from the popular television show THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. The SOUNDS come pro a popular British horns band, Sounds Incorporated.<br />
<br />
As with many Eastside Bands of the day, this band went through some different incarnations. The band would take on member George Ochoa (SEE MY POST EASTSIDE LEGENDS - THE SLAUSON BROTHERS) as their lead vocalist.<br />
<br />
The band was extremely popular and played nearly every venue on the Eastside circuit.<br />
<br />
Another incarnation of the band featured the addition of Steve Verdugo who played keyboard, guitar and was a lead vocalist. Steve would go on to record "Hollywood"/"My Lady" for Ediie Davis' Gordo Records in 1973.<br />
<br />

<br />
In part 1 of The Eastside Sound - A Retrospective look I traced the roots of The Eastside Sound from th late 1940's to the early 1960's.<br />
<br />
I defined the term "Eastside Sound"as a hybridization of musical styles, genres and influences played and sung by young artists in Los Angeles and it's surrounding areas. Those Musical styles, genres and influences included traditional Latin music, Jazz, Big Band, rhythm and blues, vocal group harmony and popular music.<br />
<br />
Part 2 chooses to begin with the rise of Ritchie Valens as a rocker,a ballad singer and one whose popularity would make a big splash in the music scene before his untimely death.<br />
<br />
In the early 1960's the course and culture of rock & roll music would change at home and abroad. The existing sound would continue to evolve and new musical influences would come into play.<br />
This musical evolution would most notably give rise to the Eastside Bands.<br />
<br />
The new musical influences causing the music to evolve would come from many sources,<br />
<br />
Teachers like Bill Taggert, Salesian High School's teacher and musical director inspired artists like The Ambertones by introducing them to jazz & big band while Johnny Gamboa whose music had been influenced by his parents and grandparents moved away from traditional jazz and rhythm & blues to playing what was popular on the radio.<br />
<br />
Bands like The Leggeriors honed their craft by imitating songs in their record collection.<br />
<br />
DooWop and rhythm & blues would continue to inspire artists like Cannibal & The Headhunters.<br />
<br />
The Beach Boys and the surfing craze would influence bands like Mickey & The Invaders.<br />
<br />
The British Invasion would have its greatest effect on the Eastside Sound with the Beatles influencing Mark & The Escorts and The Beatles along with Rolling Stones influencing Thee Midniters as well as garage bands like The Romancers and Thee Counts.<br />
<br />
Christian Youth Organizations (CYOs) in many areas offered more in way of education and after school activities. They offered inspiration for advancement in learning music and sponsored battle of the bands. Those battle of the bands would give rise to competition and to practicing and honing their skills. They also sponsored school dances and church activities and social events. One such inspired band was Thee Enchantments. Promoters like Johnny Jay would find venues around the LA area for bands to play.<br />
<br />
Eastside record owners and producers like Eddie Davis and Eddie Torres gave local talent discovered and developed by people like Bill Cardenas a chance to go into the studio and put their music on records. Cardenas and Max Uballez started youth social clubs where the bands could play.<br />
<br />
Local disc jockeys like Casey Casem, Dave Hull, Art Laboe and Huggy Boy along with their radio stations would play and promote the music as well as sponsor dances and concerts.<br />
<br />
The entire East Los Angeles area and surrounding communities became a hot bed for musical talent and the excitement generated paved the way for the Eastside Sound to become a vital part of the history of rock & roll music and to have a lasting effect on our generation and generations to come.<br />
<br />
This excitement in music in the youth would lead to a new movement in the late 1960's. The movement towards a political awakening and new musical influences for the turbulent times to come.Guy (East LA Guy)http://www.blogger.com/profile/08068400455052791999noreply@blogger.com0
