Despite coming out of San Francisco in the late 60’s, the Flamin’ Groovies were not your typical San Francisco band. They were not a “Hippie” band, nor were they driven by any Psychedelic influences. Like Big Star, the Flamin’ Groovies were a big part of creating the “Power Pop” genre. They were never hit makers but their influence was far reaching in generations that followed.
