Shocking Blue
 

Before Grooveshark went down, I decided to get myself fully acquainted with the lovely sounds of the Netherlands' very own Shocking Blue.

unfffffffffffff

Shocking Blue are best known in the states for these two hits:

"Venus"



(Later covered to much success by Bananarama.)

"Send Me A Postcard"



I also learned that the 'Blue were the trailblazers for this song, which was later covered by Nirvana:

"Love Buzz"



Two of my absolute favorite tracks on my journey ...

"Daemon Lover"



"Shocking You"



I fell in love within an afternoon. Shocking Blue were awesome; they were a must-hear for anyone who loves 60s pop/psychedelic rock.
