Kenny & The Kasuals - Thngs Gettin’ Better/Nothing Better To Do (1993)












The Lone Star State’s Kenny and the Kasuals were a great regional band formed in 1963. During the 60’s they released numerous singles (7) and a live (well not really) album from 1966. The garage reissue renaissance of the early 80’s saw two Kenny & The Kasuals albums released, consisting of their singles and outtakes. Most probably know this band best for Journey To Time an acid punk classic. There are numerous other garage classics spattered about on these two albums like Things Gettin’ Better, Raindrops To Teardrops, Nothing Better To Do, Floating and Strings of Time. This is currently out of print, maybe someday a fine company like Sundazed or Norton will release an anthology, until then . . .
