Kenny & The Kasuals
IMPACT 1965
Available only on CD - $15.00
Recorded live at the Studio Club on
Sherry Lane in Preston Center.
The tape was taken to Robin Hood Bryan's studios in Tyler Tx and mixed. We tweeked the recording, added E.Q. and re-recorded some of the lead guitar.
Texas had without any doubt a great number of fine and very original
bands during the 60s, with The 13th Floor Elevators at the very top of
the list of course, The Chessman with Jimmy Vaughn and Doyle Bramhall,
followed by almost forgotten groups that recorded whole albums like the
great Golden Dawn, Lost & Found or the positively weird Red
Crayola. There were also many garage bands that have appeared in
countless comps since the early 80s.
Kenny & The Kasuals started early and until they split up in 1968, because of the draft, they recorded 7 singles and a rare album recorded live at the Studio Club and then taking to Robin Hood Studio’s in Tyler Texas and mixed. Basically all covers, with crowd noises added and released as "Impact - Live at the Studio Club" in 1967.
I found it odd that there isn't yet a proper definitive collection of their work as they would deserve. French label Eva released a couple of albums gathering all their recordings including outtakes around 1983-'84, then reissued in one CD and I just read that there's a brand new authorized comp on vinyl only, that’s being distributed out of Greece called The Singles 1966 – 1968. These songs are all originals by Kenny Daniel and Jerry Smith. Certainly a must buy!
Kenny & The Kasuals reformed in 1977 and back then "Teen Dreams" was released...a kind of unreleased second album but in fact a brilliant collection of 1966-1967 original recordings (1 cover) that plays really well as an album, including among others the fantastic "Journey to Tyme", fuzz bass and all. There are many great garage-psych tunes from beginning to end. Had it been released 10 years earlier it would be considered an all-time classic!
There is rumor that Kenny Daniel and Jerry Smith have started writing an all new original project due out in 2010. They will be joined by Danny Green the Kasuals guitarist now, and Dennis “Boom” Howard, the Kasuals drummer now and original bassist Lee Lightfoot, and original keyboards Paul Roach to recapture some of that great music of the 60’s in today’s world. Maybe we can go home again.
Judge it yourself.

TEEN DREAMS 1966
This L.P. is still the most popular album we did. The songs were written by Jerry Smith and myself. Its become a cult recording all over the world and several songs are being played by several hot band from Boston to Austrailla. "Come on Kid" is one the most copied songs on it. I took the melody from " The Work Song" by Dave Brubeck and used that melody for the lyrics.

GARAGE KINGS 1979
Available only on CD - $15.00
This was our punk days as we were
opening for
bands like Patty Smith, The Runaway's, Iggy Pop, The Ramones, It is not
my favorite however there are some nice songs on the album. Makes No
Difference is a very nice song and has three harmonies on that cut that
I'm very proud of. Gordo, the engineer, did a great job on that L.P.
BATTLEZONE 1983
Available only on CD - $15.00
NO EXIT 1980sAvailable only
on CD or Vinyl - $15.00
Recorded in the 80's at a friends studio for fun. It was never released to the public. It was pressed to vinyl, as Cd's were not available at this time. The recording did not come out as good as we had liked, and the L.P. was put aside. We rediscovered the potential of this project in 2009 and with today's technology made a CD from the vinyl L.P. Steve Story, our engineer, worked on the transfer and added some E.Q. enhanced the guitars and vocals, turned into stereo, and made it a very good CD. It says it all, there will be "NO EXIT"! FREE SHIPPING this CD/VINYL ONLY.
