The Rondeaus (misspelled on the label) were from the coal mining region around Beckley, West Virginia. 'Anymore' starts off like The Beatles' 'Day Tripper' (hold that thought) before launching into a more original tune. Of course it's very much influenced by the Fab Four in addition to The Rolling Stones at this stage. Features a nice jangly guitar solo. The B side is, in fact, the Beatles song. A very lethargic rendition I might add. Also features a cool lightly amplified solo. This is low budget garage at its finest.
Ownership: SP: 1966 Magna. Dollar find at a local estate sale (2024).
Some parallels here with the The Rubber Band I just featured. Like with that 45, they misspelled the group name. And it's rare as heck. Never sold on Discogs and the last ebay sale was back in 2013 (like The Rubber Band) for $280. It'll be more now :-)
