50th anniversary reissue of the Flamin' Groovies seminal album 'Shake Some Action'. Taking notes from the British Invasion and inspiration under the San Francisco sun, the Flamin' Groovies became synonymous with the stylish, raunchy rock of the early-1960s, with 'Shake Some Action' remaining their undisputed classic. Earning a perfect 5-star review from AllMusic and an 8.5/10 from Pitchfork, 'Shake Some Action' is upheld for its ability to sound moody, wild, and unabashedly ''60s'. Includes the album remastered from the original analog tape as well as a bonus disc including previously unreleased alternate mixes/versions from the original recording sessions as well as the surviving reels of the band performing live at The Roxy in Hollywood in 1976. Includes the classic title track, 'You Tore Me Down', 'I'll Cry Alone', 'I Can't Hide' and more.
