Has There Ever Been a Better Rock Band?
The Easybeats. "Friday on My Mind."
And the answer to the title question is -- no. There hasn't.
I was pretty young when it came out and it spoke to me then and still does now. If, as I posted earlier, "You Really Got Me" is the best garage rock song ever then this is in the top five.
You are correct! Not even The Weasels are better.

Come on Captain Al! We wrote you a theme song! Throw us a bone!
ReplyDeleteThe Easybeats could never come close to writing Captain Al a theme song as good as The Weasels can!!!

I have been "reminding" my friends of this song over the past year.
