LAST EXIT : BROOKVILLE


Not much info can be dug up on this, the only release by the Last Exit. From Buckeye Beat (see side-bar link), this gem was released around 1967. Nice riff along with the opening grunt, makes this a sure winner!

HUMAN BEINZ : YOUNGSTOWN


In the mid 60's The Human Beinz placed focus on Y-town with their national hit "Nobody But Me". That song still gets lots of play these days, a true classic! They signed with a major label, CAPITOL, but never was able to follow up. Check out the band's web site HERE. From the ultra rare live in Japan LP comes a few cuts:

The Human Beinz-Hold on Baby

The Human Beinz-I've Gotta Keep on Pushin'(studio outtake)
