Here’s some Cinci funk from the master…Bootsy Collins. This is an early one from him, prior to his LP releases most know him by.

THE CHILDREN OF DARKNESS—- NEWARK
From the mid ’60s comes this frat style pounder out of Newark. Checkout Buckeye Beat (link in sidebar) for an in-depth look at this band!
THE TRENDS —- COLUMBUS
Here’s a doo-wop side out of the capitol city. The only info I have is what is seen on the label. I’m guessing a late ’50s or early ’60s release on this one.
THE SOUND BARRIER —- SALEM
From 1969 comes the second offering by The Sound Barrier on the UNITED AUDIO label. Featured is the trippy vocals of Patty Pshsniak. This release came with a cool foil picture sleeve that is quite rare and sometimes shows up on ebay. An excellent write up of the band can be seen at Buckeye Beat (link in sidebar) and HERE. Paul Hess guitarist from the band has recently compiled a cd highlighting the band’s recordings.
THE VILLAGERS —- DAYTON
From 1968 comes this girl group with a mild garage sound on the HAMLET label. Keeping in the Dayton area for the “Dayton Does Dayton” event mentioned by a follower. Not sure when that happens (or if it already has) but it gives me an excuse to focus my posts on an area.
The Villagers – He’s Not The Same
THE LIVIN END —- DAYTON
Not much info on this rare release from ’67. Label has band members listed so that helps some.
