With all the stuff going on this last week, I am finally able to get back to this which I last wrote about on September 5th.
There is another recording of "Little Miss Sad" by a Tampa-St. Pete, Florida, band called the Savages. Actually, I liked their version better than the Five Emprees' one. But both covers were as good as garage rock gets.
The All Music Site had this to say about the Five Emprees' "Little Miss Sad" which went all the way to #3 in Chicago. This was a big one around here for what can be considered a local band.
"Driven by an infectuous ascending riff, close British invasion-influenced harmonies, and the kind of Trini Lopez-influence that Neil Diamond would popularize with songs like "Cherry, Cherry."
