I'm 70 years old, have been listening to music since the Shirelles Soldier Boy, and have collected over 6000 Cds/LPs. The Left Banke produced some of the best music in the 60s, and Michael Brown continued with Montage and the Beckies. This was just a preamble to declare that the Left Banke is the most underrated band of the 60s, IMHO, without question.
I'm 65 and grew up in the 1960s with all that incredible music. However, I have only just discovered The Left Banke. What an incredible band. I agree with Forrest Molock - Possibly the most underrated band of the 1960s.
From the 2001 demo sessions with Steve Martin Caro (LV) and Michael Brown. Such a revelation when these tracks leaked out in the 2000's. So pleased that they're about to get a proper release! I just wish Steve, Michael, George and Tom were still around to feel the love and respect from their many fans.

SO far ahead of their time. A friend in England burned some of their stuff on a few CDs for me. Amazing.
One final album, and beautiful. Brown and Martin Caro WERE the Left Banke.
Wow ! Beautiful
Good song. Recognize Michaels melancholy playing
What CDs do the Left Banke have available?
This was originally on Leftbankeisms, I do a video review of it on Utube
