Fred Cole Grails: Lollipop Shoppe (1968) & Zipper (1975) Vinyl Session

Today we are diving into the incredible early career of Portland’s DIY legend, Fred Cole. Before Dead Moon and Pierced Arrows, Fred was cutting some of the most essential garage and hard rock records in the Pacific Northwest. Join us as we spin two legendary LPs back-to-back. THE LINEUP: 💿 The Lollipop Shoppe – Just Colour (1968) A dark, snarling garage-psych masterpiece. Originally known as The Weeds, the band was rebranded by management, but the music remains pure grit. Includes the all-time classic "You Must Be A Witch." 💿 Zipper – Zipper (1975) A raw, private-press hard rock beast. This was the first release on Fred and Toody Cole’s own Whizeagle label. It’s the perfect bridge between 70s heavy rock and the punk energy Fred would later perfect. ▶️ More Vinyl Rips: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj0yF7-9YQ9pEOi1yCUyAZikNmWVdz8Hn 📱 Instagram: @vinylpiper — https://www.instagram.com/vinylpiper/ #FredCole #VinylLiveStream #GarageRock #HardRock #LollipopShoppe #Zipper #DeadMoon #PrivatePress
