A huge local (Washington D.C.) in early '66 for the Hangmen - although
according to _Goldmine_ #140 it was actually recorded by the Reekers, who
would evolve into the Hangmen by the time it was released. I don't have
the original Monument single; I've been informed that the LP version (upon
which this transcription is based) was a re-recording. --AWR
From _Billboard_, 2/19/66:
Hangmen Cause 'Swingalong'
FALLS CHURCH, Va. -- Jack Shaver, owner of Giant Record Shop, said
last week a mob of teen-agers turned out to hear The Hangmen (4) and
when police cleared the store because the crowd created a fire hazard a
near-riot ensued.
Shaver said browser bins and display cases were smashed and two girls
and a boy fainted during the chaos. He said damage was estimated at
$500.
Shaver said The Hangmen are from the nearby Washington area and are
local favorites. He said he had sold about 2,500 copies of their
single, 'What A Girl Can't Do', on Monument, and it was No. 1 on local
charts.
He said school was out that day because of snow and the store began
filling up at noon for the 4 p.m. show. He estimated 400 'were jammed
and packed' inside and some 1,500 were outside.
Shaver said traffic was snarled, police came, declared the gathering a
fire hazard and began clearing the store. He said The Hangmen had been
playing 15 minutes at the time and it took half an hour to disperse the
crowd.
Shaver said he had had record stars perform at his store before,
including Johnny Rivers, Johnny Tillotson, Peter and Gordon, and Ramsey
Lewis, 'but they never created anything like this.'
He said he did not have insurance to cover the loss.
