Featuring legendary underground guitar hero Randy Holden, this group (relocated from Baltimore to LA also changed their name from The Fender IV to The Sons at the insistence of LA scene maker/ trend setter Kim Fowley) released, in this single, one of the most monstrous garage rock records EVER. Both sides are slabs of molten hot lava.
"Feathered Fish" was written by LOVE genius Arthur Lee (while he didn't release a version until much later) and is like a sister song to 7&7 Is. B side "Baby Show The World" has one of the most intense raveups west of the Yardbirds and Velvet Underground, and south of the Count V.
from 1965...

Thanks a lot for your kind words, Magic Kaic! You're welcome to stay around here as long as you like :-)
What a very nice single to have in your collection. Noticeably slower than the version that first appeared on Pebbles vinyl pressing, whose songs were all sped up a little by mistake by Greg Shaw.
