The first leads off with the title track, one of the Standells' brightest moments, then proceeds through nine tracks of low-grade yet occasionally intriguing teen-exploitation fare from a cast including the the Chocolate Watchband and the Sidewalk Sounds, plus a band named the Mugwumps that has nothing to do with the Cass Elliot-affiliated conglomeration. The rarities disc has a few interesting moments from the Standells, including the time-signature shifts of \"Love Me\" and the Dylanesque ambiguities of \"Our Candidate,\" but as expected, doesn't contribute much to their discography. Definitely a collector's release, but general garage fans will want to hear it simply for the period sound and styles. ~ John Bush","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46585849053471,"sku":"029667411325","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/c15019af2548e700f57dd39685c391d8.jpg?v=1777975057","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/riot-on-sunset-strip-rarities","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
