The Rooks – A Girl Like You

The Rooks – A Girl Like You

Only 1 left in stock

$10.00

“Anytime we can offer up a mid-sixties garage band from our favorite hotbed, the Windy City (particularly a combo citing Them and the Pretty Things as faves!!), good things can be expected for the beat-crazed connoisseur. Now, when it turns out to be one of the RAREST of all ’66 garage singles, namely the Rooks’ classic two-sider, “A Girl Like You”/”Empty Heart”, it’s an EVENT. The Them influence bled heavily into their own classic “A Girl Like You” — hands down the best-ever “I Can Only Give You Everything” — cop on the brutal intro. Their cover of the Stones’ “Empty Heart” is killer too. While forgotten for too long, in their day, the Rooks were in-demand in the Chicagoland area ‘n’ beyond.”
