Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 2 (subtitled LA ’66 / Riot on Sunset Strip) is a compilation album in the Highs in the Mid-Sixties series, featuring recordings that were released in Los Angeles, California. (Despite the subtitle, not all of these records were originally released in 1966).

The subtitle is taken from Riot on Sunset Strip, a movie that was released in 1967; the film features live performances by two classic garage-rock bands, the Standells (featured on Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 1) and the Chocolate Watchband.

Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 1, Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 3, and Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 20 also showcase music from Los Angeles; while two of the later CD’s in the Pebbles series, Pebbles, Volume 8 and Pebbles, Volume 9 feature bands from throughout Southern California.

Notes on the Tracks

---

The Bees are the band that produced the classic psychedelic rock song, “Voices Green and Purple” (included on Pebbles, Volume 3), which is also the color scheme for this album’s cover. Side 2 opens with what is probably the earliest recording of the early Monkees hit “(I’m Not Your) Steppin’ Stone“. The Sandals are best known for providing the score for the legendary surfing movie, The Endless Summer.

The Satans appeared on Pebbles, Volume 2 with “Makin’ Deals“, a song that anticipated “Sympathy for the Devil” by several years. The Chymes is an early all-female rock band; their song “He’s Not There Anymore” is one of the standout cuts on Girls in the Garage, Volume 1, on Romulan Records.

“Let Me In“, by the Second Helping, features Kenny Loggins on vocals in his first recording effort; Loggins wrote the song, one of three compositions released by the band as singles. The song is also found on the Pebbles Volume 9 CD.
