And in label news, BEECHWOOD continues to gather raves from around the world, including 4 stars and BEST ALBUM OF THE MONTH from Rock & Folk. Here are some highlights of their review:
“Authentic dangerous rock’n’roll is too rare nowadays. Beechwood’s case is therefore remarkable”
“We are clearly facing a sick work of art , in the footsteps of the third Big Star album or “Berlin” from Lou Reed.”
“The Land of Nod, situated after the Old Testament on the east side of Eden, is a land of vagrancy, but also means Land of Dreams. It’s the key of this narcotic album where songs are surrounded by a blurred and melancholic atmosphere with whispered, disconnected lead and misty backing vocals”
“A highly-toxic record, a dive in psychological depths that you rarely escape unscathed”
Get the first pressing on GORGEOUS HAND MIXED STARBURST vinyl while you can.

FOGBOUND -EDWARD DEVINE(Floorshaker psych pop)Label:THE JOHN COLBY SECT BW /UNHAPPY WEDDING COUPLE- The A-side of this single, taken from Fogbound's self-titled full-length, is a massive floorshaker. At the same time 'Edward Devine' is a brilliant song that will blow your mind. The B-side features 'Unhappy Wedding Couple', a psychedelic pop song with another amazing tape flanging effect and a '60s style Hammond arrangement. The artwork is by Sara Gossett. 45 RPM $15 SKU:19462

J.RIDER- NO LONGER ANONYMOUS(1976 Acid Archives fave!)Label: MACHU PICCHU Officially licensed from the group, here's a remastered CD with the entire 'Lunar Dust' sessions as bonus tracks, plus sleeve notes by Aaron Milenski (co-author of 'The Acid Archives'). Hot on the heels of the reissue of Anonymous' classic album 'Inside The Shadow', Machu Picchu reissues their elusive and legendary follow-up. After the 1976 release of 'Inside The Shadow', the group decided to change their name to J. Rider (after the second cut on the Anonymous LP) and pursued a similar rich vein of impeccable songwriting, but this time adding more hard rock to the mix, resulting in a fantastic sounding album that sadly went unreleased at the time. The excellent reissue label OR Records already put out a small edition in 1996, but now there's a deluxe edition of this gem, complete with new sleeve art. It also happens to come with an entire unreleased 10-song album, recorded in the '90s by the group's visionary songwriter Ron Matelic and featuring most of the members of Anonymous. It's a fascinating complement to the Anonymous and J. Rider albums. CD $15 SKU:19408
RADIO BIRDMAN -RADIOS APPEAR (SIRE VERSION) (2CD)Label:CITADEL This version of 'Radios Appear' was released after Sire Records signed the band. The original album was 'updated' for overseas release with new versions of some songs, the remixing of others and the addition of new songs. The resulting album is over 50% different from the original Australian (Trafalgar) version and has a completely different cover. The second CD contains outtakes, Trafalgar demos and alternate arrangements. DOUBLE CD $22 SKU:19469
REDONDO BEAT - Meet Redondo Beat (60s infl. Raspberries/ Bay City Rollers style ) Label:DIONYSUS Influences run the gamut from early 60s Brill Building songwriters and related East Coast Girl Group sound, Creedence Clearwater Revival, a touch of Doo Wop, the sound of mid-60s convertible top-down summertime Southern California and early 70s teenage AM radio Raspberry City Rollers flavored love-affairs. It is pure pop as seen through the eyes of the best decades of original rock n roll music with all the drive of late 70s punk powered 80s power pop. Dionysus commissioned Southern California Surf artist Damian Fulton to paint the cover and the disc was mastered by The Tikiyaki Orchestras Jim Bacchi. Its a marvelous listening experience that will have you traveling time and bobbing your head to some of the sweetest retro-pop-rock music youve EVER heard! CD $5 SKU:12474

LOVE HIT ME!- VA DECCA BEAT GIRLS 1962-Once the British pop boom took hold in the wake of the Beatles in 1962, Decca compensated for their Fab fumble by signing a lot of acts, including a bunch of female singers. Ace's 2016 compilation Love Hit Me! Decca Beat Girls 1962-1970 chronicles a lot of these signings, including such stars as Lulu, Marianne Faithfull, and Twinkle (the latter's "Golden Lights," later covered by the Smiths, is featured here), but the fun of the collection is how it rounds up singers who didn't enter the history books even if they happened to have hits at the time. There are some sonic constants -- big beats, blasts of brass, swirls of strings, tambourines out of Tamla, fuzz guitars, a transatlantic dilution of the Wall of Sound that remains potent -- so this holds together, but what's fun is digging out particular favorites. Beverley's "Where the Good Times Are" contains an insistent blissed-out R&B rush, the Orchids bring the Ronettes to Britain for "Love Hit Me," the Vernons Girls' "Dat's Love" is a bizarre sendup, and Sandra Barry & the Boys' "Really Gonna Shake" is an absolute raver, a single that's worth the price of admission. Other songs provide a similar kind of buzz, and the reason why Love Hit Me! is worth a listen is how the whole package provides a vivid flashback anchored by enduring pop 45s COMP CD $16 SKU:18416
BEDLAM -DEMOS ANTHOLOGY 1968-1970-Label: ACID NIGHTMARE BEDLAM and its earlier incarnations (Ideal Milk, Big Bertha, etc.) was an hotbed for launching the career of superstar drummer Cozy Powell (RIP), who later played with such major Hard Rock acts as Whitesnake, Rainbow and Black Sabbath. In this earlier stage, we can hear the fantastic guitar playing of Dave Ball very influenced by Cream/Clapton, his brother Denny on bass and Cozy on drums. In fact this early incarnation of Bedlam called Ideal Milk was almost a tribute to Cream. Moving on later, singer Ace Kefford enters the picture for a short stint with the band where they change the band name to Ace Kefford Stand. Ace was the ex-bass player of the Move. The B side of the record has the Big Bertha demos which had different singers including Denny Ball which also sang on Ideal Milk. The style is still similar to Cream/Jeff Beck Group, sometimes with an heavier edge predicting what was going to come after 2 years (meanwile Cozy was with The Jeff Beck Group and Dave Ball joined Procol Harum). Some of the standout tracks here are "Ring of Fire" with Frank Aiello singing, the same that sang on the only album in the BEDLAM history recorded in 1973, "Funky Woman" which was an amazing track on a B side of a Big Bertha single that gained some momentum in Germany, "For your Love", a brilliant cover of the Yardbirds classic with Ace Kefford singing and the hard edged "Munich City", recorded in Germany in a tape recorder before one of the shows of the Big Bertha German Tour in 1970. Reissue limited to 400 copies with insert that includes detailed song liner notes written by Denny Ball and rare pics. Remastered from the master tapes for best sound quality possible LP $21 SKU:19412
BONNEVILLES- THE FOLK ART AND DEATH..BLACK/GREEN VINYLLabel: BLUES FOR THE RED SUN Garage punk blues duo straight out of Northern Ireland.

With 3 studio albums already under their belt the band has become one of Europe's top alternative blues acts, sharing the stage with bands such as Left Lane Cruiser, James Leg, Johnny Walker and Guadalupe Plata. Deep dark punk and stylish hard roots music with good pop-sense and without a whiff of retro poly stink! Originally released in 2012. LP $28 SKU:19426
SILOAH -ST (drug influenced psych-Kraut)Label:GARDEN OF DELIGHTS Reissued on vinyl, including a generous 16-page LP-sized booklet, is 1970's self-titled album by German band Siloah.

It showed a strong influence from US West Coast psychedelic music and has a lovely acoustic approach. It's sound is free, full of improvisation and with a charming amateurish feel all through it. It will appeal to lovers of free spirits like Amon Düül themselves, Kalacakra or even Música Dispersa. LP $29 SKU:19427

TWILIGHTERS -NOTHING CAN BRING ME DOWN (60s Texas garage psych monster) Label:MILKCOW This wonderful reissue comes with a '60s styled company-sleeve and a postcard. Back on 7-inch, here's a brain melting Texas garage psych monster from 1968. 'Nothing Can Bring Me Down' became an instant cult hit when it started appearing on garage punk comps, and Pussy Galore and others bashed out their cover versions. The Twilighters recorded this sole 45 at a club named Mark VII, also the name of the record label. When the guys entered the recording space they only had one original song, the moody garage ballad 'I Need You'. Front man Jay White wrote 'Nothing...' on the spot, since the single also needed a flip. However, the result, a fuzzed up mixture of psych à la Hendrix and Cream, and '60s punk, was so exciting that it became the A-side. 45 RPM $14 SKU:18372

BROWN ACID SERIES – NEW VOLUME JUST IN!
If you're a psych nerd or garage geek, chances are strong that you're familiar with this recurring series of compilations from Riding Easy and Permanent Records that dusts off and compiles rare cuts from heavy metal's bluesy, primordial days in the late '60s and early '70s. The vast majority of the bands featured in the collections — appropriately referred to as "trips" — are no longer with us; if you weren't a member of the Boomer set, chances are you missed out. Fortunately, we've got these intermittent, riff-filled time capsules to bear secondary witness to said molten nuggets.
