100$ Fine was the follow up album from the Minneapolis garage rock band Litter. It is a combination of their own compositions with some covers, and features some driving guitars with a dose of psychedelia.

“The major difference between this and their debut LP is that the band wrote most of their own material here, (except for four covers) showcasing their talents as writers as well as musicians.”

“The LP is an amazing look at a band at the height of its creative and musical powers. $100 Fine is as good an effort from 1967-1968 as many of the other LPs of the era. The guitar prowess of Caplan and Rinaldi is as good a double-barrel attack as any in the 60s, while Waite's powerful vocals are superb. The bass of Kane and drumming of Tom Murray is as good as it gets, as well as very tight. The results are a glorious album.”

“If you like unadulterated 1960s garage rock, Litter are right up your alley. This album features all the fuzz guitars and minimal structures garage fans just eat up. This is quintessential for the sound. For me, this stuff is a little bare, but I can hear the talent in the playing and writing.”

“Superb snarling 60s garage psychedelia. More adventurous and original than their first LP. Though quiet a bit different in execution, it deserves more respect and greater exposure. Very recommended.”

“This album probably needs little introduction. It's among the best known, most renowned psychedelic hard rock albums of the late 60s, both harder and more psych than their first LP, without a weak track in sight.”

“Even harder than their debut, the follow-up is strong guitar driven hard rock, with major psych influences. Fantastic.”
