Phenomenal ‘60s garage from Minnesota’s Gestures!

Along with a few other Twin Cities chart toppers, The Gestures’ “Run, Run, Run” became a national hit and even earned a spot on Kaye’s legendary Nuggets compilation in 1972. Full of shimmering guitars, opulent harmonies, and good ol’ rock ‘n’ roll, the band was limited to a handful of singles before going their separate ways. Here you’ll find a full LP’s worth of Gestures on vinyl, all killer no filler! In California, the Gestures were especially well-received, maybe because “Run, Run, Run” had the lightness, the hook, and infectious drive of the California surf and car band hits. Record World’s hot picks column called it a surf-like sound that should endear them to teens. The slice is a hard-driving ditty. Cash Box said the Gestures bow was a hard-rock- ing, Liverpool-sounding affair... powerhouse instrumental support on this haunting entry. There’s a complete change of pace in the soft-sounding uptempo undercut. 

“‘Run, Run, Run’ hit #1 in the Twin Cities, #3 in Los Angeles, #1 in New York and #3-5 in Oklahoma City. It reached the top of the local C&N Sales jukebox charts, cracked Billboard Magazine’s top 40, and as I mentioned before, was even played on Bandstand. It was right up there with records by the Hondells, Gene Pitney, Jay & the Americans, and all the early British bands – including the Beatles.” - Dale Menton (of The Gestures)
