It's a swinging mod dance party tonight, with classics by Googie Rene Combo, Etta James, Mable John, The Tempests, Mary Wells, Chuck Jackson Darrell Banks, plus a super-rare primitive garage rocker by the Customs Five that James never dreamed he'd find in a box of junk in an Indiana flea market (thanks to the In The Past Garage Rock Podcast for introducing me to the song).
