The Defectors - Baby Gimme Love (E.S.P. Recordings 2001)



With second album release "Baby Gime Love", Danish 60's Punk combo The Defectors are finally taking their rightful place in Garage-Heaven. First album "Let Me..." gave us an act with great insight of the core of 60's inspired Garage, and with a great talent of making it work in tunes and appearace. "Let Me..." opened the world to The Defectors, and accomplished great reviews, touring and International Tv-appearance on MTV "Alternative Nation" and was presented as only Danish act by marc Almond on New Music Television. Now the Defectors are about to show the World (again) that they mean serious business. as the debut "Let Me..." showed everybody that these 5 geezers have what it takes to call themselves 60'ies inspired Garage, second album "Baby Gimme Love" takes The Defectors over the top, and in 13 Rock'n'Rolling tracks show the World that The Defectors have what it takes to stay in business. "Baby Gimme Love" is a certified 60's Punk classic already. Every song made with great feeling, proving these guys have Rock'n'Roll in their veins. One track better than the next one and all sticking together like Garage-glue to one big beautiful lump of true Garage-Energy. Among the 13 tracks you'll also find a couple of necessary covers classic lust'O'Rama Garage hit "I Can't Do) Another Mistake" and Mr. Elvis Costello's evergreen "You Belong to me", which the Defectors with small means have made into the true Garage song it always has been! With "Baby Gimme Love", The Defectors proves in every sense that they're on the top of the current international Garage-scene and they intend to stay there for a looonnnggg time!  (Amazon customer review)

  3. I sure enjoy this band. This file, however, demands an undisclosed password, & will not open. I have this problem occasionally with your posts. Is there a password?

    1. Hi Konrad Useo,
      there is no password for my files. I recommend unpacking archives with 7-Zip or the latest version of WinRAR, never had problems with it.

  4. No luck. It still asks for password. However, since we seem to like the same type of music, I just took your implied advice & bought the album.
    Thanks for your influence.

    1. Sorry you had no luck, but a good decision to buy the album and support the band (although this album is only available second hand, no bandcamp, no spotify and co. and so just dealers benefit from it).
      I can also upload albums elsewhere, if there are any difficulties. It's also possible to send a mail.
      All the best...and now I check a little bit of your 3 blogs, at the moment I listen to "Intense Psychedelia 12 mashups" ...and it sounds cool.
      Cheers!

  5. @Pubbi - Cool to hear of your interest. Hope you like. I'll certainly be back here for more. ( I already made a mashup with The Defectors for my upcoming Halloween mashups album. Thanks to you )
