BLACK LIPS - Let it Bloom (unsealed but mint ) -Label:in the Red Formed with the intention to cross the sound of the 'Back From The Grave' 60's garage compilation series with the Germs, the Lips have developed a sound unlike anyone else. Anyone familiar with the group will no doubt be a bit surprised by the sound of their latest 'Let It Bloom' album which, while still skuzzy and raw, contains their catchiest and most melodic moments to date. If Royal Trux had listened to the Troggs instead of the Rolling Stones, they might sound like this (though the album does sound quite Stonesy at times). 'The Black Lips are the only current garage band that matters.'-Mick Collins 'Like Creedence crossed with gauze-wrapped early '90s garagists the Mummies.'-Village Voice 'Think '70s sloppy punks like Flipper or The Germs bashing out some '60s garage from the Nuggets series.

THE SERIES THAT INSPIRED THE ENTIRE GARAGE ROCK REVIVAL! In his review of the Pebbles series for Allmusic, Richie Unterberger comments: "Though 1972's Nuggets compilation reawakened listeners to the sounds of mid-'60s garage rock, it only focused on the tip of the iceberg. Behind those forgotten hits and semi-hits lurked hundreds, if not thousands, of regional hits and flops from the same era, most even rawer and cruder. . . . More than any other factor, these compilations [in the Pebbles series] were responsible for the resurgence of interest in garage rock, which remains high among collectors to this day."SET CONTAINSVol 1-10 plus #12 plus a surprise bonus AIP cd Reproduction of Lenny Kaye Letter to Greg discussing the series 1971Repro of RARE PEBBLES posterPEBBLES BADGEPEBBLES STICKER(RE the packaging … Better than a cardboard box, if you ask us !

WHITE SUMMER - ST ( 76 PSYCH HARD ROCK )-Label:OUT-SIDER (Spain) White Summer's self-titled LP, a private pressing from 1976, reissued with original artwork for the first time. Progressive hard rock with psychedelic touches, melodic vocals, top-level musicianship, and stunning lead guitar. Originally from Benton Harbor, Michigan, White Summer was formed in 1973 by a trio of 18-year-olds who shared a mutual love for Hendrix, Cream, and Grand Funk, among others. They were Jim Watkins (drums and vocals), Rick Lowe (guitar and vocals), and David Wheeler (bass). White Summer played many shows at high school dances, outdoor festivals, and nightclubs, becoming one of the top rock acts not only in Michigan but also in Florida, where they relocated at the end of the '70s. White Summer's first album, known as the "White Album" due to its simple design, was recorded at Uncle Dirty's Sound Machine Studio in Kalamazoo, Michigan, by Bryce Roberson, who had formerly been an engineer at Chess Records. Self-financed by the band, 1000 copies were pressed and sold in the Michigan area. Sought-after by collectors worldwide, this is the first-ever reissue to feature original artwork. 24-bit domain professional remaster from a mint original vinyl copy (master tapes were lost).

WOOLLY BANDITS- Say Hello to My Little Friend- (60s garage style) ) Label:DIONYSUS UNSEALED Drilled bar code Say Hello to My Little Friend by The Woolly Bandits Former Disney Star Turns Woman of Mass Destruction! The Woolly Bandits we're born in 2004 from the resurrection of 1960's garage rock legends The Seeds as the new back-up band. Los Angeles Veteran Rock N' Roll Crusader, Rik Collins, rescued acid-guru, and way-out Seeds front man Sky Saxon from virtual obscurity in 2002. Rik Collins (vocals, bass) and Mark Bellgraph (guitar) formed the new back-up band for Sky Saxon and toured Europe three times and helped to bring Sky back to prominence before his passing last year. The audiences, press and promoters wanted to know who this new young band was. It was at this point the bands European booking agent suggested they start their own band, and The Woolly Bandits were born. The band named themselves after a nickname one of Sky's girlfriends had given him and released, in 2006, their debut album "Say Hello To My Little Friend" on Dionysus Records as a three piece. In 2005, The Woolly Bandits made an important addition to the group, Christa Collins (formerly Christa Larson. When Christa Collins joined the Woolly Bandits, she had not performed since a guest appearance on Michael Jackson's "Heal the World" in 1991. As Disney's first recording artist and the prototype for the child music star (Christa Larson - Minnie and Me), her career was on a trajectory for stardom. And then tragedy struck. While on tour in Australia supporting her new CD, Christa's mother, Denice, was tragically killed by a hit-and-run driver. Christa was no longer the same girl after losing her mother, manager, and guiding force. Disney released Christa from her recording contract shortly after, at age 12. It would be years and many transformations before Christa returned to the stage. CD $3 SKU:17579

YARD APES, THE- Shoulld’ve Stayed Home - GARAGE ROCK -Label:OFF THE HIP With cranked up tube amps, a gutsy rhythm section, sneering vocals and noisy tape hiss, “Should’ve Stayed Home” keeps the album’s momentum steaming ahead at all times. On this release, The Yard Apes have nailed the art of mixing their “tongue in cheek” attitude with unrelentingly energetic garage rock. There are songs of varying paces and influences, with mordant themes such as triumphantly quitting your job since your boss is such a jerk, to losing everything the night your wife went home with your best friend. With many other troubling misadventures throughout the record, the songs serve to illustrate more than enough reasons why you should probably just stay indoors."As a garage rock artefact goes this album’s world class and The Yard Apes should be packing their bags and taking it to the world."- The Barman, www.i94bar.com CD $14 SKU:17852
YAYS & NAYS- ST- ( 60s garage 6 stars in Pokora book!) MINI LP SLV - Label:GROOVIE SPAIN "Monster rare USA private pressing from 1968, rated with 6 stars in the Hans Pokora 3001 book. The Yays & Nays were a groovy, hip group comprised of three guys and three girls. This is a truly unique sounding album, full of creative songwriting and vocal arrangements and a style that defies any categorization. There's some fab garage folk-rock on it (the opening track 'Gotta Keep Travelling' is really astounding!), and also some tracks in a bizarre crooner-lounge 'Incredible Strange Music' vein. Reissued for the first time, in collaboration with band members, and with original artwork." CD $8 SKU:14713
YELLOW PAYGES- VOL 1 (great 60s garage psych ) SAALE - Label:WALHALLA Great '60's garage psych album reissued at last ! Very much in the Nazz mould (but with a heavier edge) the band are prime 68 US Anglophile psych garage pop but despite a three year long association with UNI Records, Russ Regan never seemed to know quite what to do with this band. Most likely due to an almost constantly fluctuating lineup, an album wasn't released until 1969, and as good as it was, it was a case of right place wrong time. "Two Of Us" and "Devil Woman" are hard psych gems drenched in guitar. "Friends" and "Never Put Away My Love For You" are engaging ballads. "Moonfire" is vaudevillian, "I'm A Man / Here 'Tis" is blues, and "Boogie Woogie Baby" is updated fifties rock. Overall worth investigating and in many ways a minor classic long over looked.

PSYCHEDELIC UNDERGROUND- VOL 14 ( 70s psych prog )SAALE -Label:Garden of Delights Still plenty of greatness to unearth in the Psychedelic Underground -- just the sort of tripped-out grooves we've really come to love from this well-priced series! Some of the work here is as heavy on jazzy elements as it is psychedelic ones -- making for a great blend that's a bit more organic at times than you might expect -- a world-ranging approach to the styles that really keeps things interesting, and which nicely breaks past simple cliches of psychedelia. Plus, many of the tracks are of European origin, and from the 70s -- and they've got key proggish elements as well, especially on some of the jazzier numbers. Titles include "Summer 79" by Gravestone, "Arctic Ocean" by Pancake, "Back On My Hill" by Faithful Breath, "Ala Dalona" by Emma Myldenberger, "Question" by Joy Unlimited, "Bolero" by Aqua, and "Where Is Your Home Town COMP CD $7 SKU:8718

So how come it wasn't new wave, anyway? Simply put, to a lot of people, it was. And here, in one place, you can hear some of the early (and a few later) tracks that defined the genre. "Early" often translates as crap ideas and execution, and of the 26 tracks on this compilation, there are more than a few that fit that category--The Romantics, for example. But there are some tidy little things on this release--The Plimsouls (possibly the best power pop band ever), 20/20, and the eternal Shoes. Cheap guitars, three chords, and enough enthusiasm to run a nuclear power plant; funny how the basics of rock & roll never change--only the tunes and the tie widths. --Chris NicksonThis compilation chronicles the style that happened right after punk rock, when some of the bands learned how to play their instruments a little better and started borrowing melodies and harmonies from old '60s pop records. This marriage of melody and energy spawned a couple years' worth of exciting music and a lot of it happened on Bomp during the years 1979-1981. Every one of these 25 songs is a bona-fide classic, including bands like The Romantics, The Real Kids, The Flamin' Groovies, Shoes, 20/20, The Nerves, Pointed Sticks, The Zeros, The Last, and The Plimsouls. These are mostly tracks not otherwise available on CD, and a couple never never been released before in this country. Includes lots of photos and info. (Greg Shaw) COMP CD $10 SKU:2102
