I call them "semi-instrumentals, but maybe someone else has a better name for them?
I'm talking about ones where the band has a catchy riff they want to play a few times, but no lyrics (and maybe no singer), so they just break it up with a shout or a nonsense phrase - "Tequila" being the archetypal example.
A lot of these groups probably never came up with more than the one hook -- and you can tell that in some cases after thinking up one word to shout they were out of ideas for names for themselves, so you get, for instance the Groovers singing "Groovy" or the Greasers singing "Greasy" . . .
Ths thing is that although the shout/break may be pretty random (why not shout "Zebra" to the tune of "Tequila" or vice versa?), that's what locks the tune into your head & can't be separated from it ever afterwards.
Crude stuff, but I love it anyway. Sean Lally, at least, knows what I'm talking about, as I swiped several of these from his mixes . . . thanks, pal!
Feedback:
Wow, looks interesting. I think I may only know "Tequila", although there's a chance that I've heard other things from this at Lally's place or on one of his mixes... :-)
I'm also only familiar with "Tequila", but this looks like a must-have for me!
interesting, exciting and stunning too
Why not shout ZEBRA!!!?
I'm shouting it now: ZEBRA!!!
Can you hear me?
I'll shout a more constructive comment if you send me this mix....

Great idea.
I'd love to hear this.Contact me if interested in a trade.
THis mix is something to shout about. No need to write lyrics when one word will suffice. Cool cover too. The guy in the middle looks kind of familiar ;)
Fantastic mix! I can only imagine what the Hully Gully Boys "Yabby" sounds like....
looks like great fun - i love those type of tunes!
Yeah, very cool, very fun.
Gimme that Las Vegas Grind. GIZZZ-mo!
This type of song is perhaps the funniest in existence. Looks great!
Holy cow, you even have Roger and the Gypsies doing Pass the Hatchet! Dangerous...
Just wanted to ty for the comments on my two mixes. In answer to your question. I will be mixing a TODAY'S protest songs sometime in the near future. Keep in touch and good mix :-)
Another cool one.
Yer damned right I know what you mean! THIS KICKS MUCHO ASS! Grooooooovvvvvveeeeee!
Muy brilliante! (repeat, ad inf.)
LOOKS FANTASTIC!
Woo Hoo as The Rockateens say.Fabulous.
Hey Jeff, ya wanna trade this for the chinatown mix?
Gizzzmmoo! I am in love with this mix. Where the hell did you find all these songs? This is the perfect hypnotic mix for churning out end of semester overdue homework, lemme tell you. Gizzzmmoo!
this too is an excellent mix, & what a great idea, i've made a few all instrumental mixes similar in the past & always had the dillema of whether to 'cheat' or not with a one or two words, but it did'nt occur to me to make a mix of them. top marks.
