The Zippers – He's A Rebel / You're So Strange [7''] (1977, Back Door Man Records)

The Zippers were a Los Angeles-based punk/pop band from the late 1970s and early 1980s formed by Lou Cammarata (guitar, vocals, and member in the 60's and 70's of the soul bands Nicky C & The Chateaux and CRYSTAL), Danielle Faye (bass, vocals, also a member of Venus & The Razorblades), Bob Willingham (guitar, vocals) and Bill Willett (drums, vocals, also in The Imperial Dogs). They debuted in 1977 with the 7" single 'He's A Rebel / You're So Strange' on the Californian label Back Door Man Records. The A-side is a nice and punchy new wave cover penned by Gene Pitney and originally recorded by The Crystals in 1962. The B-side is too moody and epic but might appeal to anyone interested in hearing a very early example of neo-psychedelia. [SOURCE: RATE YOUR MUSIC]
