Flamin' Groovies – Shake Some Action (2xLP, 50th Anniversary)

‘Shake Some Action’ is the fourth studio album by American rock band Flamin’ Groovies and initially released on June 1 1976. Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of this iconic album with a pressing on classic black vinyl!

Taking notes from the British Invasion and inspiration under the San Francisco sun, the Flamin’ Groovies became synonymous with the stylish, raunchy rock of the early-1960s, with Shake Some Action remaining their undisputed classic. Earning a perfect 5-star review from AllMusic and an 8.5/10 from Pitchfork, Shake Some Action is upheld for its ability to sound moody, wild, and unabashedly “’60s”. Includes the album remastered from the original analog tape as well as a bonus disc including previously unreleased alternate mixes/versions from the original recording sessions as well as the surviving reels of the band performing live at The Roxy in Hollywood in 1976.

With standout tracks like “Shake Some Action”, "Yes It’s True” and “You Tore Me Down”, this is essential listening for fans of power-pop.
