The Standells | Why Pick on Me | Album

The Standells' second Tower Records LP, Why Pick on Me - Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White (1966), is a quintessential artifact of 1960s garage punk, though it represents a transitional moment where the band's raw sneer clashed with pop-oriented studio experimentation. Produced by Ed Cobb and engineered by the legendary Richie Podolor at the American Recording Company, the album serves up a fuzz-drenched, Vox organ-driven feast that solidified the band's "rebellious underdog" identity right on the heels of their massive hit, "Dirty Water".
