Seattle, Washington - The Pacific North West

The North West, features great garage bands from Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Oregon, Washington and Alaska.  A rockin' garage tour of America's north west . The lead song "A Little Bit More" is a classic garage piece by The Impacts from Longview, Washington.  Longview is located on the Columbia River just North of Portland Oregon.  "A Little Bit More" and "Leavin' Here" were recorded at Northwestern Inc. in Portland where The Kingsmen recorded "Louie Louie". A shout out to The Sandmen, from Minnesota, for their covers of the Bo Diddley classics "I Can Tell" and "You Can't Judge A book By Its Cover".  It was quite daring of The Sandmen to so dramatically and most successfully change the tempo of these two classic garage songs.

Welcome To The North West

The Impacts rocked the dance clubs from Portand to Seattle
