THE VAGRANTS - I DON'T NEED YOUR LOVING


A scorcher!

This Long Island band seems to be known most prominently as Mountain-man Leslie West's first group of note (that's him crunching out the raunchy guitar licks), although they were a whole lot more than that.

Taking a cue from the Young Rascals, The Vagrants infused a healthy dose of soul into their raucous rock n roll (their great cover of "Respect" is on the first Nuggets collection).

This, their final single, shows them at their peak; driving organ, a stomping beat and a great tune add to to 2:50 of pure sonic nirvana.

from 1968...
