"Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 2" (subtitled LA '66 / Riot on Sunset Strip) is a compilation album in the Highs in the Mid-Sixties series, featuring recordings that were released in Los Angeles, California. (Despite the subtitle, not all of these records were originally released in 1966). The subtitle is taken from "Riot on Sunset Strip" (a movie that was actually released in 1967); the film features live performances by two classic garage-rock bands, the Standells (featured on "Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 1") and the Chocolate Watchband.

"Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 1", "Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 3", and "Highs in the Mid-Sixties, Volume 20" also showcase music from Los Angeles; while two of the later CDs in the Pebbles series, "Pebbles, Volume 8" and "Pebbles, Volume 9" feature bands from throughout Southern California.

Release Data

This album was released in 1983 as an LP by AIP Records (as #AIP-10004).

Notes on the Tracks

The Bees is the band that produced the classic psychedelic rock song, "Voices Green and Purple" (included on "Pebbles, Volume 3"), which is also the color scheme for this album's cover. Side 2 opens with what is probably the earliest recording of the early Monkees hit. The Sandals are best known for providing the score for the legendary surfing movie, "the Endless Summer". The Satans appeared on "Pebbles, Volume 2" with "Makin' Deals", a song that anticipated "Sympathy for the Devil".
