So I was driving home earlier today from a yoga class
that almost killed me, listening to the latest incarnation
of the only oldies station left in the Bay Area, and
was dee-lighted to hear
Little Girl - by the Syndicate of Sound

Thank you, DJ Mook, for that classic from deep within a San Jose garage.
Here’s another garage favorite from San Jose and a few lesser known tunes
from other towns with vehicular storage facilities.

Hey, DJ Guys & Gals!
Besides the major losses today of Mssrs. McGoohan & Montalban, I also learned that several days ago we lost a certain Mr. Henry Endo, whom many of us cherished, as younger folks, in the recurring, genre-founding role of police lab technician Che Fong on Hawaii Five-O {and thus was the Empire of Grand Geekdom born!} . . . and hey, weren't we just grooving to that theme music last weekend?!
Anyway, I ransacked YouTube for a capture featuring Mr. Endo, and sadly, couldn't find any, but DID find the following, which I thought was just too rippin' cool not to share.
(And I promise, I'll get off the whole TV theme kick soon & post some real music, 'kay?)

There was a nice video of NRBQ's My Car on youtube, but it looks like its been pulled. As consolation, I offer former guitar frontman Al Anderson playing the tune live with his solo band:
