I’m ashamed to admit I’ve only heard of three of the bands on this list of 25 Garage Rock Heroes. How many do you recognize?

Naturally, I’ve heard of Question Mark And The Mysterians and their hit, “96 tears.” I also know that these guys are often credited as forefathers of punk and that the song was originally called “69 tears” but that was considered just a bit too naughty.
