The Kynds :: So If Someone Sends You Flowers Babe

Here’s one that’s been on serious repeat lately. A mid-60s garage rock gem, “So If Someone Sends You Flowers Babe” is the A-side on the sole release by a group known as The Kynds. A trio from upstate New York, organist Joseph Cirincione, drummer Jerry Porreca, and bassist Dan Wood (with one of them anonymously on vocals) laid down the track in Kinderhook while gigging in the area in 1966, fashioning a lo-fi garage rock gem with merry-go-round keys, a sparse drumbeat, and warped humming bass. It’s a mysteriously cool platter, a relic ambered by its fuzzy recording quality and occasionally inaudible lyrics.
