An ongoing discussion of things related to the song "LOUIE LOUIE," the song written by Richard Berry in Los Angeles, adopted regionally by the Pacific Northwest, transformed into a big hit for the Kingsmen, and embraced all over the world as an anthem for countless garage bands. (Not that you should ever stop counting...)
This is a good spot in cyberspace to share stories of Rockin' Robin Roberts + the Fabulous Wailers, Little Bill + the Bluenotes, Paul Revere the Raiders, Jack Ely the Courtmen, the Sonics, Ron Holden the Playboys, Frank Zappa + the Mothers of Invention, Don + the Goodtimes, Iggy Pop + the Stooges, Animal House, the Sandpipers, Black Flag, the Shockwaves, Barry White, Toots + the Maytals, Billy Childish, The Ventures, the Beach Boys, the Pink Finks, and a lot of other musicians that appreciate the beauty and purity of the world's most popular garage rock anthem.
For those that love 3-chord rock and roll, this is the place!
