I don't know if you own any of the Nuggets box sets (Nuggets, Nuggets II, Children of Nuggets) but they're pretty decent cross sections. The first set, Nuggets, was American garage era, Nuggets II centers on the UK and "beyond". Children of Nuggets is garage bands and the paisley underground type stuff from the eighties. The four below are from Nuggets II.

The Slickee Boys, a "Children of Nuggets"-era band from Washington DC, did a version of Glendora that got some local radio airplay back in the day. I'm embarrassed to say I didn't know it was a cover until -- literally -- earlier this month, when I heard the original on Sirius XM.
Great to have you back posting.
