Song Info:

From Greg Russo:

"The Gremmie" was recorded at William Locy Recording Co. in Riverside, California. Buff had nothing to do with it. Aerni was the band's manager at the time and he produced the single. When that single failed, Aerni brought The Tornadoes to Pal in December 1962. The Tornadoes recorded "Raw-Hide" and "The Swag" at that first Pal session. The "Moon Dawg"/ "The Inebriated Surfer" was laid down at Pal in January 1963, and the rest of their album sessions were done in the spring and early summer of that year."

Official re-release:

Both tracks have been re-released on The Tornadoes: Now And Then CD.
