The miraculous injection of power provided by the addition of grenade-girl Pikachu to the ranks, and the special guest appearance by Yamazaki Maso (aka Masonna) meant that this date at Bears was insanity on an unprecedented scale. By the end of the group's set there was so little oxygen left in the venue that no one's lighter would work! This date became an instant legend -- and here's your chance to witness it on DVD!! Edition of 500 copies. NTSC/Region Free." DVD $21 SKU:8796 ADKINS, HASIL- Moon Over Madison ( 60s garage ) -Label:NORTON RECORDS Originally released in 1990.

LP $15 SKU:8798 PLASTIC CRIMEWAVE SOUND- ST ( psych punk )-Label:ECLIPSE RECORDS "At last, a new LP from Chicago's spacepunk purveyors! Following '06s sprawling double concept LP, No Wonderland, this is perhaps their most consistent and paint-peeling statement yet. These tracks were captured with little studio trickery, in a live-type fashion, a set of bellowing free-fest scuzzrock, biker boogie, Kraut-style dirges, cosmic communal jams, and fist-pumping no-anthems. This is easily the most seriously rocking Plastic Crimewave Sound line-up yet, with hot new leads courtesy of Nick D'vyne, and the solid backbone of PCW (guitarscrawl, yelps) Mark Lux (bass rumblage, electronix) and Lawrence (Skog Device) Peters (drum). Folks have actually been clamoring for this line-up to lay it down to wax (especially the aforementioned anthemic cut 'Shockwave Rider') for some time, so get ready to explode into space. Limited edition one-time pressing." LP $21 SKU:8801 SKATERS- Physicalities of the Sensibilities..(psych ) .-Label:ECLIPSE RECORDSECLIPSE RECORDS ...of Ingrediential Stairways. "Uncalculated unconscious expectations within an involuntary interception (system) of detached fantasy detached provided the fantasy is born of ingredients outside of the body but determined by the unpenetrated unconsciousness this in combination with the mind's ability to sight illusions creates a world in which the consciousness can travel in and out of realization of the event arising as with the tangible actions of the ceremony ascending and descending within the spectators consciousness manifest exchanged illusions. The unknowing of levels of consciousness as the procession of the ceremony transforms the imagination from inner and outer experience to one a whole motion of physical and mental interaction. Recorded in Universal City, Mexico by Spencer Clark and James Ferraro. Limited edition one-time pressing." LP $21 SKU:8802
DRY RIB- Whose Last Trickle ( DIY ) - Label:MESSTHETICS "D.I.Y. with a guitar-genius/nonsense poet only begins to explain Dry Rib and the projects that followed, but they were one of a tiny handful of D.I.Y./post-punk-era groups who'd probably have sounded the same whether punk had happened or not. And things only got cooler, odder, and more idiosyncratic as Rob Vasey's audio insurgency progressed. Ed Ball of O Level (and later the Times and Teenage Film Stars) saw Dry Rib first in late 1978 and promptly signed them to his new Clockwork label. He writes, 'Dry Rib were a late '70s three piece group of some indefinable power -- not Powerful in the obvious sense, as in everyone slugging out the same riff... More the power of musical and lyrical imagination ... 'Rob Vasey's guitar style of blurred chord stylings coupled with continuous tremolo arm preempted My Bloody Valentine (or anyone else) by the best part of a decade. [He] wasn't like Eric Clapton or Paul Weller in way/shape/form ... Which could only be a good thing because, he superseded these fellows for sheer guitar innovation and songscapes that neither could even conceive of. Rob was ably supported by two equally intelligent musicians -- Andrew Goodwin (one of the best two drummers I've ever played with -- and that includes the so-called shit-hot session guys) and Mike Mullholland (who could make a Fender Precision sound like Entwistle, Matlock or a distressed horsefly!)' Dry Rib's EP received heavy airplay from John Peel, who featured all three tracks: 'Quail Seed,' 'Cruelty of the Victim' and their epic 'Alaska' (the latter and a demo of 'Quail Seed' appear on Messthetics #102) and briskly sold through a thousand-odd copies at the beginning of D.I.Y.'s golden age. They made several further trips to the studio, with no loss of intensity or inventiveness. Rob's career next took a more fluid and improvisational turn in a series of collaborations with various members of the Times' extended family, mostly under the flag of 'as, hem syrup' (the name taken from a nonsense prose piece of Rob's) and the lyrics grew even more fanciful. As with Dry Rib, there's no mistaking any of the material for anyone else's. There's much more of Ed Ball's account in his liner notes (including diary entries from the time) along with every surviving Dry Rib photo, lyrics, the usual daunting ephemera, and 20 songs and 75 minutes of music on the CD." CD $12 SKU:8675 FREEDOM’S CHILDREN- Galactic Vibes ( 70S S AFRICAN PROG PSYCH ) - Label:SHADOKS MUSIC (GERMANY) This is the third album by South Africa's Freedom's Children, originally released on the Parlophone label. The year is 1971, but the song is "1999." The group is Freedom's and the vibes are galactic. And now just over 30 years later, we can look back at "1999." This is a many-layered album, almost to the point of being cluttered, but this is what makes it interesting. Each time you listen you can hear something new, be it a tone in Brian Davidson's wailing vocals, a riff from Julian Laxton's screaming guitar, a sequence of notes from Barry Irwin's booming bass, the change from sticks to hands on Colin Pratley's awesome drumming, or merely putting your ear right up against the speaker to feel the presence of Ramsay MacKay on the live version of "The Homecoming." The centerpiece of Galactic Vibes is "The Homecoming," which appeared in a shorter version on Astra, but this live version has to be one of South Africa's epic tracks. Recorded live at the Out of Town Club (which, according to a copy of their flyer in the sleeve notes, advertised as a "steak parlor"), the track features a quite stunning and by all accounts legendary drum solo that lasts for the best part of 8 minutes before those dramatic guitar chords. Aside from this monstrous drumfest, the album features some blistering, fuzz-edged guitars on the thundering "That Did It" as well as the quieter and beautiful "Fields And Me." There is also the experimental keyboard piece, "The Crazy World Of Pod: Electronic Concerto," which is just short enough not to become irritating. The orchestration on "About The Dove And His King" adds a beauty and quality sheen to what is quite a rough rock sound, which is due mainly to the inventive recording methods used. With layers of overdubs and no noise reduction, this method created what the sleeve notes describe as a "musical mystical mist of sound." This is a wonderful way to describe the slightly distorted guitars and vague hissing sounds. These guys were breaking barriers not only in South Africa's rather narrow 1970s rock world, but would have broken through numerous perceived limitations on the world stage, had the world bothered to listen. Galactic Vibes is an album that South Africans can be proud of, even 30 years later. It is a great musical achievement that can be hauled out again and again and simply marvelled at. JAN & LORRAINE- Gypsy People ( 60s acid folk ) - Label:FALLOUT This superb collection of acid-tinged folk and pop has been acclaimed as one of the best female psychedelic albums of the late 1960s, with contents varying from fragile ballads to rousing rock and roll, set to complex arrangements and gorgeous vocal harmonies. Recorded in London but only released in the US and Canada, it features support from musicians including Terry Cox (Pentangle), Brian Odgers (Al Stewart, Van Morrison, Elton John), Keshav Sathe (Magic Carpet) and legendary session drummer Clem Cattini. Amongst the most enigmatic recordings of its time, it makes its long-awaited CD debut here.

CD $24 SKU:4251 STONE HARBOUR- Emerges ‘74 ( 70s psych) - Label:LION “Extraordinary basement psych with two multi-instrumentalists creating a melancholic dreamlike state with songs fading in and out of the speakers, cavemen drums, primitive electronics and murky fuzz lurking in the background. The best tracks go into places no other albums reach. Actually closer to the heart of psychedelia than most other records listed here.” —Acid Archives of Underground Sounds URINALS - Negative Capability (70s punk)Label:WARNING LABEL Now in their 25th year, what better time to reissue this collection of songs that inspired a generation of punk, art-punk, post-punk, and pop-punk bands, from the Minutemen and Gun Club to Yo La Tengo and Butthole Surfers, in addition to newer bands such as The Dishes, The Reds, and ST-37. A 31-song collection featuring such Urinals classics as 'I'm a Bug', 'Black Hole', and 'Ack Ack Ack Ack', in addition to a selection of madcap covers such as the 'Jetson's Theme,' and songs by Soft Machine and Roky Erickson.

Some English sung, some Portuguese, but all killers that really make this amazing collection an absolute must have for any psychedelia collector. If you dug the Spanish "Andergraun vibrations" compilations, be sure to pick this one as it's equally good and following a very similar direction! 700 vinyl copies, coming with insert containing photos and liners , and fantastic remastered sound COMPLP $30 SKU:8519 FAPARDOKLY- ST(60s folk/ psych ) -Label:GUERSSEN Fapardokly is probably regarded as the most important release in Merrell Fankhausers long career, and an absolute collectors item. The band recorded about 30 tracks in a small studio in Palmdale, California, from 1965 to 1967, when the owner of the studio decided to release an album with some of these tracks. With such different recording dates, you find here different sounds..organ-ized 60s pop, jangly folk-rock, psychedelia. a truly fantastic album that finally gets, for the first time, a legit vinyl reissue and with the original artwork. Comes with an insert featuring photo from Merrells personal archive, and linernotes by him as well. LP $29 SKU:8385 FINN,SIMON- PASS THE DISTANCE (70’s acid Folk ) -Label:MAYFAIR One of the rarest LPs from the exclusive Mushroom-Label finally gets its official release on Vinyl! Often labeled as Folk, Simon Finns debut album from 1970 is actually more in the singer/songwriter vein but totally different to everything else you can find in this genre. With a couple of guest musicians (e.g. Kenny Elliot from Second Hand), Simon Finn created ten songs of an eerie, angry, unsettling and, if you hear the track Jerusalem, even disturbing nature. Shortly withdrawn after its release, this demanding album is nearly impossible to find these days so finally here is your chance to listen to this fascinating music. Limited Edition of 500 HELL, RICHARD AND THE VOIDOIDS - Blank Generation 180 GRAM VINYL -Label:SIRE Exact repro vinyl version of the debut Richard Hell album, originally issued by Sire in 1977; 180 gram vinyl . "Hell formed the Voidoids, whose unwavering individualism kept the group out of the big time while producing a demanding and impressive corpus of work. 'I was saying let me out of here before I was even born.' That lyric sums up Hell's attitude, which he expanded and perfected on Blank Generation with a new version of the title track and such powerful statements as 'Love Comes in Spurts' and 'New Pleasure.' The album combines manic William Burroughs-influenced poetry and raw-edged music for the best rock presentation of nihilism and existential angst ever. Hell's voice, fluctuating from groan to shriek, is more impassioned and expressive than a legion of Top 40 singers." -Trouser Press LP $17 SKU:7803 HMS BOUNTY/FANKHAUSER- THINGS ( 60s flower psych )-Label:GUERSSEN One of the all-time 60s classics, coming out from the California desert of Antelope Valley where HMS leader Merrell Fankhauser lived for a couple of years. This was released on Uni in late 1968, and gosh its a killer!!!! Flower power psychedelia, great all original songs, this is one of these albums you shouldnt miss under any circumstance. Make yourself a favour and get one of these wonderful reissues we have for you, with remastered sound, original artwork and an insert with liners by Merrell and a great photo from his own archive. LP $29 SKU:8386 LOLLIPOP SHOPPE - Just Colour ( 60’s garage ) Label:TApestry After The Weeds signed to UNI Records they changed their name to The Lollipop Shoppe to fit in with the current trend of bubblegum music. The band's 1968 LP Just Colour, is hardly bubblegum, but instead a mix of garage rock and psychedelia. The album and its single, "You Might Be a Witch," are regarded as period classics and still prized by collectors. The band opened for stars such as Janis Joplin and The Doors, and appeared in the biker movie Angels from Hell. IMPORT LP $25 SKU:5325 |
