THE VAGRANTS

Here's the very first release by The Vagrants. Released in 1966, the band originated in Forest Hills NY....same town the Ramones will hail from a short time later. Their slight claim to fame came with the NUGGETS classic "Respect". Guitarist Leslie West would later form the group Mountain....
