Garage Grooves on CFUV 101.9FM in Victoria frequently plays this and other Painted Ship tunes. I think the group was one of the first Vancouver signings by London Records. The label went on to sign The Collectors (soon to become Chilliwack) and The Poppy Family. London's erstwhile West Coast promo men (Mike Hertslett? and Ray Pettinger) helped propel both bands to national prominence.
