Ibu Jehovah - The Dynamites

There have been at least five bands called The Dynamites.
1. An instrumental/beat band from Sarpsborg, Norway who excisted from 1958-1966. They released two singles on the Troll label and did a tour of East Germany in 1965. Two of the members went on to the freakbeat group The Divorced.
2. A garage/R&B/freakbeat band from Basel, Switzerland.
3. A 60s garage rock band from Japan (ザ・ダイナマイツ) which featured a slide guitar (unusual for a Japanese band at the time).
The Dynamites were Segawa Hiroshi vocals, guitar and leader of the group (that's him in the chair), Oki Keizo slide guitar (unusual for a Japanese band), Yamaguchi Fujio lead guitar, Yoshida Hiroji bass and vocals, and Nomura Mitsuro ("Tako") on drums. The ripping guitar and driving rhythm of their best music make them one of the top Japanese garage bands. They came out of the Tokyo club scene, calling themselves the Monsters before having to change their name when signed to Victor.
Their first single from November, 1967 (pictured above) contains different versions of two songs that would show up on their album, Young Sound R&B. "Tunnel to Heaven" is a fine number on the 45, but compare it to the LP and what a difference! Much heavier drums and the guitar is forward in the mix instead of the vocals dominating. Both versions have fantastic solos and plenty of shouts and screams.
The opening chords of "Koi Wa Mo Takusan" (That's Enough Love), very reminiscent of Paint It Black, segue into a heavy fuzz intro on the LP. On the 45 strings carry the melody instead of the guitar, though once again the solo blazes away. The LP version retains the strings but they're flat buried in the mix. The song itself is fairly bland and wouldn't appeal to non-Group Sounds fans, but that opening and the ferocious guitar solo make it worthwhile.

4. A new funk band from Nashville, fronted by soul veteran Charles Walker. They recently released their first record Kaboom! on Outta Sight Records on June 12, 2007. There's also a profile for the dynamites featuring charles walker
5. A Jamaican reggae group in the late Sixties and early Seventies that served as the house band for producer Clancy Eccles. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
