And don't forget our awesome 5 cd for $10 bundles, a chance to sample some great music on the labels for a fantastic price. More bundles listed on our site.

King Mud continues to rake in the 4 star reviews, Maximum Volume says:

“The key to King Mud’s fabulousness is as downright primal as the music they make. The band is a two piece featuring Left Lane Cruiser man Freddy J and Van from Black Diamond Heavies. The former released an album last year charmingly entitled “Dirty Spliff Blues” and the latter are about the only band who can outdo them from grime soaked blues. So put em together and something wonderful might just happen.”

Thanks for all,

RINGS - I Wanna Be Free ( 70s psych) w TWINK ltd ed -Label:PARAMECIUM Another Chiswick release in Paramecium Records, their fourth release is the amazing single of The Rings, I wanna be free / Automobile. The Rings were an unusual band so they were a young band fronted by an older underground musician (Twink, real name John Alder, veteran of many psychedelic bands including Tomorrow and The Pink Fairies). I wanna be free is a minimalist punk anthem, in which the song title and not much else by way of lyrics is chanted over and over again above a killer riff. This single was released in May of 1977 and was repressed two times more, one of these with a different sleeve, this Delga Press Limited edition has been used in our release. Now you can get it 35 years after for a few euros. OFFICIAL REISSUE LICENSED FROM ACE RECORDS (500 copies). 45 RPM $12 SKU:16035

SEE SEE / BY THE SEA - SPLIT 7" 500 copies SALE - Label:GREAT POP SUPPL One of 2 new 45s on The GPS for June, this ones a split featuring a spanking new tune from The See See backed by a gorgeous debut from new Wirral band By The Sea. "Automobile" once again displays The See See's penchant for hazy, sun baked West Coast psych / power pop. Hooks a plenty, killer backing vocals, and a tidy follow up to the mighty "Late Morning Light" full length that came and went in a week on wax for the GPS, with a CD amassing salivating reviews throughout. The Wirrals "By The Sea" are steadily creating quite a buzz for themselves both on Merseyside and down here in London after a number of stunning live shows, where their (so far), small cannon of beautiful 60s flavoured tunes leave audiences eagerly tipping the band for future greatness. Sublime songwriting recalling The Left Banke, Gene Clark, The WCPAEB, with subtle nods to that first euphoric moment you heard the Stone Roses for the first time. This single could almost only come out late Spring, early Summer- 2 gorgeous tunes in tastily packaged vinyl only. Just a perfect pop record and one which sees its release celebrated with a launch show at the perfect setting of the Williamson Tunnels in Liverpool on Sat. June 11th. 500 only so be quick. 45 RPM $10 SKU:12942

SEMI TRUTH - You Call (Barracudas related ) pic slv. -Label:NDN Semi-Truth came to life when Jeremy Gluck, singer used 2 b of fabulous legendary legendary surf punkz The Barracudas (they had their folk rock phase but Gluck got over it and smashed the band), asked his friend Richard Angel from the band Alcohol (incl. latter day Saints' Michael Baylis) to give some new tunes a good kicking in the teeth. With its own triple fresh sound, marred and married with a collision driven between the Pixies and Atari Teenage Riot, this Semi-Truth single is the first new recording by ex-Barracuda heart and mind, Jeremy Gluck, in some 10 years. Gluck, whose Barracudas are now recognized as the thyroid Flamin' Groovies of their (inter-)generation, is doing Semi-Truth fueled by healthy doses of boredom and repellence. NDN Records is proud to give ya a taste of these first new beliefs in a decade, recorded too fast in souf lon/din over one weekend and countless eons (What kind of idiot mixes every verse wrong?).

SHAKERS, LOS- CONFERENCIA/OTRA VEZ 68/71 Uruguayan Rock/Bossa Nova -Label:CIRCOLO DEL DIS Two lp's on 1 CD. In 1967, "Los Shakers" begin to write what would be considered the "Sergeant Pepper's" by "Los Shakers", "La conferencia secreta del Toto's bar" (Toto's bar secret conference) and in 1968 they finish the arrangements and decide the album concept. The name of the LP is a satire of the American presidents conference that was held in Punta del Este in april 1967, and Toto was the owner of a bar where the Uruguayan musicians met. "La Conferencia" is a complex LP and "Los Shakers" anticipated the fusion of rock with candombe, bossa nova and tango. Subsequently, Hugo and Osvaldo recorded a bossa-jazz LP called "La bossa nova de Hugo y Osvaldo" (Hugo and Osvaldo's bossa-nova), where all of them play the instruments and put an end to the pending contract with the record company, also considered a "must" by bossa-jazz lovers. In 1971, Caio and Peln attempt to take once again the rock style and record an LP called "Otra vez en estudio" (Once again at the studio), inviting for this project three Uruguayan musicians from the "old times" of the 60s, three members of "Los Inocentes" (The Innocents), the twins Hctor and Carlos Capobianco (brothers of Peln) and Rubm Viera (Lorenzo). This LP intends to continue the Shakers' melodic line but without the Fattoruso brothers, and it is a different thing, although it presents some compositions with good harmonies and the album is very well considered by collectors CD $14 SKU:8884

FINCH - Vita Dominica ( 70s Dutch Q65 related ) SAALE - Label:PSEUDONYM RECORDS (NETHERLANDS) Founded in 1974 and derived from the legendary group Q65, Finch is still regarded as one of the most leading Dutch second generation bands.

Their debut album Glory Of The Inner Force was also released in the United States. Especially Finch live reputation is often remembered as legendary. Nuff said for the ones who were eyewitnesses. Others can now enjoy Vita Dominica, an album that not only relaunches their Colossus-7", but also presents three recently unearthed pieces that were recorded by Dutch radio station VPRO. Paradoxical Moods, Pisces and Register Magister capture Finch on stage shortly after the release of their debut, featuring the first definitive line up of Joop van Nimwegen (guitar), Peter Vink (ex-Q65) (bass), Cleem Determeijer (keyboards) and Beer Klaasse (ex-Q65/ex-GROUP 1850) (drums).

FITZGERALD, PATRIK-Safety Pin Stuck in My Heart ( 70s punk rarity ) DOUBLE LP -Label:MUNSTER RECORDS (SPAIN) RSD Black Friday release. Patrik Fitzgerald was one of the oddities that punk rock threw up in 1977. A lone singer with an acoustic guitar, regaling punk audiences with lyrical songs and interspersing them with chats, stories and poems. Is this what people died in the Punk Wars for? The answer is an emphatic yes. There's no better example of the punk DIY attitude than the lone, slight figure of Patrik Fitzgerald making it happen and expressing himself on stage, singing songs of alienation, observation and imagined situations and often braving hostile receptions to communicate with an audience. While bands had the safety net of each other and the bombast of volume and wattage, he stood alone. Patrik had realism, pathos and incisive, sometimes uncomfortable, lyrics. Those early songs like "Safety Pin in My Heart" and "All Sewn Up" have amazingly stood the test of time and sound as relevant today as then. Patrik Fitzgerald was the "Punk Poet." He is the great forgotten songwriter from the Class of '77. Patrik Fitzgerald never became a household name or punk icon like Rotten, Strummer or Weller, but to his loyal followers he is just as important and as inspirational. Same goes for Mark Perry, Vic Godard and Robert Lloyd. Like them, he is one of punk's idiosyncratic, singular voices: artistically successful, but too uncompromising for mainstream and commercial rewards. Fitzgerald's sincere attitude and eccentric appearance -- commonly, a badge-cluttered blazer, red drainpipe trousers and sandals -- set him squarely apart from his new wave brethren. He was always called a poet rather than a singer, as it was all about the words. Words full of tragedy, comedy, cynicism, realism, bitterness, pathos and just occasionally, hope. Tagged the "new Dylan" in '77, he was maybe more the new Leonard Cohen with a touch of social realism, although Bowie was his hero. "The recordings remain true to me, even when I don't. This is what they are; the voice of a small, insecure, somewhat lost person, living in a small, insecure, somewhat lost country." LP $25 SKU:16363

FLESH EATERS- A Minute to Pray A Second to Die- ( liner notes by Byron Coley ) 60s garage-rock style -Label:SUPERIOR VIADUCT The Flesh Eaters is the name behind one Chris Desjardins a.k.a. Chris D. Taking his stage name from a 1964 cult film, Chris D. wrote for legendary fanzine Slash in the late '70s and assembled the first of many Flesh Eaters lineups from heavyweights in the burgeoning L.A. punk scene. After releasing a ravenous EP and heart-ripping debut album, The Flesh Eaters unleashed their era-defining statement, A Minute to Pray A Second to Die. Originally released in 1981, A Minute to Pray brings together the greatest band in American rock history: Dave Alvin (Blasters) on guitar, John Doe (X) on bass, Steve Berlin (Los Lobos) on sax, along with Bill Batemen (Blasters) and DJ Bonebrake (X) providing the album's trademark percussive backbone. Chris D. leads the group like a man possessed. Through a series of grotesque vignettes, his lyrical prowess and indelible growl stand toe-to-toe with the music's powerful shifts. From opener 'Digging My Grave' (resembling a diesel-charged Magic Band) to the gothic groove of 'Divine Horsemen,' each song is its own hairy beast. Inspired by African tribal music, '60s garage-rock churn and Funhouse-era Stooges swing, A Minute to Pray remains (according to author / archivist Byron Coley) 'the best rock record ever recorded.' This first-time vinyl reissue has been carefully remastered and features liner notes by Coley. Without a doubt, The Flesh Eaters will hypnotize a new flock of listeners in this millennium." LP $22 SKU:16178

FLOWER TRAVELLIN' BAND- Satori 2013 repress. Deluxe LP format; 180 gram pressing. ( 70’s psych rock ) - Label: Reissue of the second Flower Travellin' Band album, originally issued by Atlantic Records in Japan in 1971. Satori is a conceptual hard rock/psych album driven by Hideki Ishima's furious guitar licks which erupt and explode over the harmonic heart beat of the drums and bass. Yamanaka's banshee-like vocal style turned him into an occidental Iggy Pop or Robert Plant while the band itself was rapidly becoming Japan's answer to Led Zeppelin. Satori is a huge album in every way. From power chords to Eastern-tinged North African six-string freak-outs and crashing tom-toms, the band flexes its collective muscle from start to finish. In short, this is a real rock classic of the type they simply don't make any more. LP $22 SKU:15598

FOREST- Concert ( 72 acid hippies! ) SAALE -Label:KLIMT Recorded in May and October 1972 for BBC Radio 1 by DJ Bob Harris, these sessions may be all that remain of this seminal acid folk bands elusive third album! Featuring songs not heard on either one of their LPs-1969s self-titled debut and 1970s Full Circle, both on Harvest-it is speculated that many of these songs would have appeared on their imminent third album had they not been suddenly dropped from their label (due to low sales and rapidly changing musical tastes). By 1972 Dez Allenby had left the band, leaving brothers Adrian & Martin Welham as the only remaining members, although Dave Panton (viola, sax) and Dave Stubbs (bass) were brought in for their live performances. By this time, particularly on tracks like "Everyday Laugh", the Welham brothers were moving more into avant-rock territory and one can only speculate on where they could have gone from here. All songs by Welham & Welham except a version of Ray Charles 1958 hit "Leave My Woman Alone". Track list - SIDE A: 1. You Could Have Been A Gypsy 2. Leftover Wright 3. Everyday Laugh SIDE B: 1. What Happened To You? 2. Leave My Woman Alone 3. Regarding 4. Love's Memory Gone 5. Turning Of The Day LP $15 SKU:15349

FOWLEY, KIM - Im Bad - 1972 with Mars Bonfire (Steppenwolf) on guitar and Pete Sears (Jefferson Starship, Hot Tuna) on bass.Label:VINILISSSIMO I'm Bad was the first American album by Kim Fowley after 1968's Outrageous (with the Swedish LP The Day the Earth Stood Still in between). Released in 1972, it finds Fowley perfecting his wild, crazed, rock 'n' roll outlaw persona, at times invaded by the spirit of Captain Beefheart. He gathered a mighty fine set of musicians for the band, including Mars Bonfire (Steppenwolf) on guitar, and Pete Sears (Jefferson Starship, Hot Tuna) on bass. LP $22 SKU:15782

FRESH AIR - A Breath Of (obscure 70s hard psych ) -Label:SWEET DANDELION (UK) Never reissued on vinyl until now, Fresh Air's rare and only album has always been considered as the best and rarest reference in MGM's subsidiary Amaret Records, mostly known for having released some fantastic garage-psych singles. Released in 1970, the album delivers a really strong organ-led hard psychedelic sound that reaches unexpected quality from such an obscure release. Recorded in the same Studio as the famous Lyd album, Sunwest Studios in Hollywood, the band drop ten tracks full of heavy psychedelic guitars, swirling organ and dual guitar work, and reaches at points a strong resemblance to the Doors' best moments LP $14 SKU:14781

FRONT PAGE REVIEW- Mystic Soldiers 180 gram fuzzed-out 1968 psychedelic gem, insert with liner notes -Label:GUERRSEN Here's the definitive vinyl edition of this lost album from the late '60s Bosstown scene. Front Page Review rubbed shoulders with bands like Eden's Children, Beacon Street Union and Strawberry Alarm Clock. With legendary producer Alan Lorber behind the controls, they recorded a whole album for MGM which wasn't released at the time. 'Mystic Soldiers' is a prime example of late '60s US psychedelic rock, featuring a young Steve Cataldo (Saint Steven, Nervous Eaters) on vocals and as the main songwriter. All the right ingredients are featured here, like wah-fuzz guitars, organ, phasing and other psychedelic effects. The sound is taken from the master tapes and you get two bonus tracks, a new cover design featuring an unseen band photo, and an insert with detailed liner notes by Jeremy Cargill (Got Kinda Lost/Ugly Things), telling the band's story for the first time.

GABBARD, ANDY - Fluff - LTD ed of 150 PINK VINYL (BUFFALO KILLERS- Modern Grunge Fuzz Pop with 60’s aura ) -Label:ALIVE Brimming with creativity, Fluff by Andy Gabbard, his debut release as a solo artist on Alive Naturalsound, isn't moving beyond what Andy has done, or will continue to do with Buffalo Killers. Sometimes, ultimately, you find yourself with extra moments and more ideas than one band can develop. So naturally, it made perfect sense to give that inward creative need an outlet. Fluff is the end result.

Cut in one 12-hour studio session, Andy took on the full responsibility of doing a solo album literally. He played every instrument and wrote everything you hear. Reviving an established relationship with Alive Records, on Fluff you can hear the deeply-solid effects of the grunge genre and mid-'90s 'alternative music' in a sonic gestalt. Exhibiting characteristics of fairly recent genres, as well as some classics that surrounded him during his youth, Fluff breaks barriers of seemingly comfortable, unthreatening music cultivating a physical embodiment of Nirvana, The Smashing Pumpkins, latter Beatles and even Brian Wilson!

Fluff defines Andy's environment, a creative environment... an environment of ultra-dimensional levels. The days of solo albums being released due to further 'artistic development' past a bands catalog of hits, are over. Buffalo Killers continue their successful run and now, it's not running alone. Fluff is the start of something great and fathers the true sonic beauty and the relative nature of one single person and their soundtrack of nearly unending smiles in a sea of tumultuous frowns. - Shawn Abnoxious LP $15 SKU:16540

GERMS - Germicide- Live at the Whiskey 1977 180 gram -Label:BOMP Records Live at The Whiskey 77 We are seldom lucky enough to hear one of our favorite bands at the earliest state of development. In the case of the Germs, LA's most radical punk band, someone was fortunately on hand with a remote 8-track studio to record their very first gig. Part of Kim Fowley's 1977 "Punk Rock Weekend" at the Whiskey a Go Go, it's a rough, honest, eye-opening set, showing the Germs as they really were. Originally released in a limited vinyl edition in 1980, Germicide quickly went out of print, then was issued cassette-only by ROIR. Now on 180 gram vinyl for the first time in more than 15 years.

While their follow-up album drifts away from their psychedelic roots, the band managed to record in this debut album one of the best records in the UNI catalogue.
