Their records were major local hits, with three reaching the lower reaches of the U.S. Top 100, and their most famous 45, \u003cem\u003eWerewolf\u003c\/em\u003e, has gone on to become an instrumental classic. The track was famously adapted by \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Cramps\"\u003eThe Cramps\u003c\/a\u003e in 1980, giving The Frantics an unexpected but important connection with the darker side of Garage and Psychobilly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThis superb collection gathers everything The Frantics recorded for the Dolton label in 1959 and 1960, alongside three later 45s recorded for local label Seafair Bolo.

The band's repertoire ranges from hard-driving Instro R\u0026amp;B and Rock 'n' Roll through to atmospheric and occasionally exotic material such as \u003cem\u003eOne Minute Of Flamenco (For Two Minutes)\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSan Antonio Rose\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eSt James' Infirmary\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThere's also a fascinating extra in the form of \u003cem\u003eI Love You So\u003c\/em\u003e by The Fleetwoods with The Frantics, giving the group a rare label credit as backing musicians.
