NEW ARRIVALS
BEAU BIENS-TIMES PASSED/A MAN WHO'S LOST-Label:MALIBU The Beau Biens started out as a Yardbirds-inspired teen band in the Detroit suburb of Grosse Pointe. In the fall of 1966 the members moved to the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where the single 'Times Passed' b/w 'A Man Who's Lost' was issued. The two songs were recorded at WCBN college radio with producer Joe Doll, known for his pioneering psychedelic radio programs. Through the years the band's 1967 single has earned acclaim with collectors worldwide. This long awaited reissue comes with sound from the original tape and was pressed -like the original- at Detroit's Archer Records, 50 years later. 45 RPM $8 SKU:18508

HOLIDAY, JIMMY -SPREAD YOUR LOVE - The Complete Minit Singles 1966-1970 Label:KENT SOUL A soul singer whose success as a recording artist never matched his success as a songwriter, Jimmy Holiday is best-known for penning "Put a Little Love in Your Heart" along with Jackie DeShannon and Randy Myers. By the time that song appeared in 1969, Holiday had been grinding away at the soul circuit for over a decade, a trek that culminated in a hit in 1963 with "How Can I Forget" and then a contract with the New Orleans-based R&B label Minit in 1966. Despite strong work, Holiday never became a star and faded away in the '70s.CD $10 SKU:18539

Buried Alive!! is the first definitive collection devoted to Australasian 1960s beat, punk, and psych.
The world down under produced some of the most ferocious and provocative sounds to have emerged from planet earth in the 1960s. Crammed full of fuzz, distortion, feedback, phasing and wild dementia, this menacing and uncompromising sound was the precursor to punk rock as we know it. 'Buried Alive!!' conjures up a superb collection of rampant amphetamine fury, jammed tight with the most venomous, vile and repulsive '60s delinquency ever put together. Definitely not for the faint-hearted!! This landmark, limited edition 6-DISC ANTHOLOGY culls together 150 long lost sounds of toxic, teenage rebellion from Australasia.

DISCOUNTS AND RESTOCKS
ALLEY CATS-Nothing Means Nothing Anymore/Gimme A Little Pain-Label:MUNSTER RECORDS (SPAIN) The Alleycats were from Lomita in South Bay. Michigan emigre Randy Stodola was the songwriter/guitarist and driving force, with a penchant for surreal narrative in his lyrics. His wife, Dianne Chai, on bass, and John McCarthy on drums made for one of the tightest outfits around. Musically they probably most resembled meat 'n' potatoes more than any other Dangerhouse punk act." --David Brown 45 RPM $10 SKU:17603

BLACK RANDY & METROSQUAD-I Slept In An Arcade/Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose-Label:MUNSTER RECORDS (SPAIN) What is the name of the guy who produced the Mamas and the Papas? Lou Adler. He had us flown up to Vancouver and pretend to be punk rock musicians and lipsync to 'I Slept In An Arcade' in this movie he was making about punk rock. Randy actually got this very nifty role where he became the bad guy in the movie, which was totally appropriate because he wanted to be the bad guy." --David Brown 45 RPM $10 SKU:17609
BLACK RANDY & METROSQUAD- Trouble At The Cup--Label:MUNSTER RECORDS (SPAIN) 'Trouble At The Cup' was recorded at what used to be a motel but got turned into sort a recording studio. . . . I don't think anyone could really later believe what came out of those sessions, and while the army of teenage hustlers never materialized to fight the LAPD, 'Trouble At The Cup' still makes for a spunky number." --David Brown 45 RPM $10 SKU:17611
BLUE ASH - ABRACADABRA -70s POWER POP-Label:YOU ARE THE COSMOS BW (HAVE YOU SEEN HER?) / HIPPY HIPPY SHAKE`` In 1972, Blue Ash signed a production deal with Peppermint Records of Youngstown, Ohio. This was the classic Blue Ash line-up of Frank Secich, Jim Kendzor, Bill “Cupid” Bartolin, and David Evans. We made our first demos in June of 1972, which included “Abracadabra (Have You Seen Her?),” and Peppermint sent them out to all the major labels, resulting in Mercury signing us in late 1972. Our deal with Peppermint gave us two free days of recording every month for five years. So every month we would lay down demos of our new songs for copyright purposes, demo references, and to hear what they sounded like on tape. Over the five year period of 1972-76, we had recorded some 219 songs in various degrees of quality. Some were “live” in the studio and others multi-tracked. 45 RPM $8 SKU:18174

FINCHLEY BOYS- Everlasting Tributes DELUXE DOUBLE CD (70s heavy psych )Label:REACTION Parasol Label Group's reissues imprint, Reaction Recordings, is thrilled to announce the long-overdue deluxe 2xCD and digital reissue of The Finchley Boys' 1972 album, "Everlasting Tributes." For those who don't know, it's a great wasted heavy psych record, featuring cuts like their hard-rocking reinterpretation of the Kinks song ‘I'm Not Like Everybody Else’, the superb ‘It All Ends’, and the best cut for me, the anti-establishment anthem ‘Restrictions’. This is the only album ever released—and it’s a good one—by this band from Champaign, Illinois. Known for their great live shows and theatrical antics, including some stage work with a live boa constrictor five years before Alice Cooper made it famous, the Finchley Boys were ahead of their time. They started recording in the fall of 1968 and throughout 1969, but those songs would not be heard until the release of "Everlasting Tributes." Although the original album has been bootlegged many times over the decades these pirated releases delivered poor sound quality. This, the first official, definitive, band-authorized CD/digital release for the Finchley's material, was carefully restored from the original master tapes. Considerable time was then spent remastering the tracks to bring them up to modern day standards. The deluxe 2xCD package features a second disc of bonus tracks, entitled "Neverending Tributes," which includes a recently rediscovered trove of recordings from 1968-1969. Also includes a 24-page booklet featuring liner notes by Ugly Things Zine scribe Scott Wilkerson as well as a slew of rare/never-before-seen photos. CD $18 SKU:18035

SLOW GRIND FEVER - #3 Yet More (Adventures in the sleazy world of POPCORN NOIR 53-63 )Label:STAG-O-LEE (GERMANY) Stag-O-Lee presents the third volume of Slow Grind Fever, compiled by Richie1250 and subtitled YET MORE... Adventures in the sleazy world of POPCORN NOIR... The decade between 1953 and 1963 offers an endless supply of danceable, up-tempo tunes. We're talking rhythm 'n' blues, and the phase in the early '60s when it morphed into soul (now called new breed), as well as popcorn -- Belgian music with a mid-tempo style and a high groove-factor. The Slow Grind Fever series highlights the slower side of this period, and takes its title and inspiration from an Australian club night billed as "Melbourne's only slow dance party." These events would include only the "slowest, spookiest, sweetest records" the DJs could find, with folks dancing "real slow in a haze of smoke and dim red light." Stag-O-Lee was convinced that this was a great concept for a compilation series, and have collaborated with those behind the Melbourne club night to present Slow Grind Fever, the third volume of which includes tracks by The Notes, The El Torros, Eddie Cooley & The Dimples, Isley Brothers With Ray Ellis & Orch., Donna Dee, Charlie Williams, Henry Thome, Bob Lee, Little Willie John, Elizabeth Waldo, Bobby Rebel, Jessie Hill, The Flamingos, and Jimmy Scott.

SONGS THE CRAMPS TAUGHT US- VARIOUS VOL.4Label:CATO "For many of us with a penchant for raw 50s and 60s garage and rock n roll, the Cramps were our doorway to a whole new world of sleazy guitar music. It didn't matter that they hadn't actually written most of the songs, to paraphrase the band themselves "they had good taste". They'd tracked down these amazing old records, reworked some of them, merged others and stamped them boldly as their own.Many different comps have appeared over the years that have gathered the original source of the Cramps trash genius. This brilliant series gathers much of what's previously appeared but adds a few more gems too.
Imagine the songs of the Cramps, dripping sleaze and spoof horror and then strip back some of the campness and modern production techniques and you'll get an idea of the raw sound of most of the material on these LPS. COMP LP $16 SKU:18111

JERUSALEM- ST transparent purple vinyl!Label:LION “Sledgehammer-heavy masterpiece of underground British rock!” —Classic Rock Magazine
“Big fat chords, wailing guitar, punch-drunk bass and straight-ahead solid drums all strutting in your face like some massive guy you just don't want to f**k with.” —Head Heritage"I made the record because they are bloody good and it seems a shame for their sound not to be recorded... right now there's a rawness and excitement..." Ian Gillan, in Disc & Music Echo, January 29th, 1972
Heavy UK hard rock album from 1972, produced by Deep Purple's legendary frontman, Ian Gillan, originally released on the Decca/Deram label. It was Gillan who said of them: “Not many bands really excite me. But this one’s so raw and completely unpretentious. They make the biggest, bloodiest noise you can imagine, tempered with moments of extreme emotion.” And, of course, he’s right—the music is a menacing combination of over-the-top vocals and screaming lead guitars that could easily pass for something from the early British heavy metal scene—or something from the emotional hard core scene of the mid-1990's ('Primitive Man'). A favorite among vinyl collectors, the album is presented here in its ultimate glory, with all tracks direct from the original master tapes, housed in a high quality old-style gatefold cover; insert has liner notes written by bassist Paul Dean + rare photos. Stickered to indicate that this is the purple vinyl edition.

JOHN’s CHILDREN - Orgasm ((unhinged UK 1966 psych)180 gram - Label:RADIATION DELUXE SERIES (SPAIN) 180-gram vinyl. The sole album from unhinged UK psychedelic mod rock outfit John's Children, recorded in 1966, right before Marc Bolan joined the band. Produced by The Yardbirds' manager Simon Napier-Bell, who referred to them as "positively the worst group I'd ever seen," John's Children's debut LP was shelved for three years due to its then-unthinkable title, Orgasm, and released only in 1970, on the US White Whale label. Acclaimed by many as precursors of glam rock for both their theatrics and music, John's Children quickly disbanded in 1968, leaving behind a half-dozen singles ranking among the most collectible British '60s rock artifacts ever. LP $22 SKU:17163
JOKERS WILD-Liquid Giraffe(Heavy underground rock with great composed songs, fuzz guitars, speedy drums and tight bass lines)Label:SHADOKS MUSIC (GERMANY) 2016 repress, originally released in 2013. Jokers Wild recorded three singles between 1967 and 1969 in Minnesota but the complete album, Liquid Giraffe, was never released. Starting as a five man band, most of the material was recorded by the three main members: Lonnie Knight, Denny Johnson and Pete Huber. Lonnie Knight became guitarist of The Litter for a while but he returned to Jokers Wild. Jokers Wild was a powerful band - Huge amp stacks guaranteeing a "wall-of-sound" on stage, double bass drum and cool outfits. They must have been great on stage. Damin Eih, A.L.K. and Brother Clark wrote: "In '67 I saw two local bands that again amped up the juice, The Litter and Jokers Wild. Both bands played original music and had excellent psychedelic-raved guitar players, Zippy Caplan (Litter) and Lonnie Knight. That brought everything to a new level." Heavy underground rock with great composed songs, fuzz guitars, speedy drums and tight bass lines. If you think The Litter is great, you should listen to Jokers Wild. 180 gram vinyl. Comes in a heavy sleeve with a two-page insert. Edition of 500 (numbered). LP $35 SKU:17839

KISSING SPELL - Los Pajaros ( S. American West Coast style 70s psych ) Label:ACME Reissue of one of the best and most sought after South American psych albums (1970), remastered from the original stereo master tapes. So it's not the guitar rave-up record many expect from South American psych. Instead, it's West-coast styled introspection from Chile, more akin to We All Together (if you need another South American reference point) at times than anything else. Well-crafted songs with an attractive dreamy quality enhanced by spacey effects, occasional bursts of well-handled fuzz guitar, and strong harmonies; sticker text likens it to the Zombies “Odyssey & Oracle”… not sure I hear that, but it’s an excellent album to be sure. Includes Kissing Spell’s up-tempo track 'Yellow Moon', which was on Latin American "Love Peace and Poetry" compilation; most tracks in English, with a couple of exceptions. LP $22 SKU:16428
KLEPTOMANIA Elephant Lost (70s rarity Hendrix style )DBL LP gatefold w liners, rare photos -180 gramLabel:PSEUDONYM Double vinyl reissue (plus three unissued versions as killer bonus tracks) of this famous Belgian heavy psych/prog album. 'Elephant Lost' was recorded in 1971, but remained shelved for a number of years before it saw an actual small scale release, in '79. Inspired by Hendrix, blues, jazz and early '70s heavy rock, the band delivered a fistful of blooz fuzz on 'Moonchild', utilized a potent riff-and-vocal combination on 'Stop', blended melody with a heavy sound on 'Visit From Above', and showed off their chops on some spacey jams. This definitely is one of Europe's finest heavy rock rarities from the era! This double-LP (with remastered sound from the original tapes) is pressed on 180-gram vinyl and comes packaged in a deluxe heavy gatefold sleeve. Included are rare archival photos and liner notes by Ugly Things' Doug Sheppard. LP $30 SKU:15969
KNICKERBOCKERS- Jerk and Twine Time 180 gram mono ltd edition SAALE - Label:SUNDAZED Although the Knickerbockers hailed from Bergenfield, New Jersey, anyone listening to the radio in early 1966 would have sworn that they were from Liverpool. That’s when the band’s overpoweringly infectious signature tune “Lies” stormed the AM airwaves, convincing many stateside listeners that they were hearing a fab new Beatles single. Jerk and Twine Time emphasizes the raw immediacy of the Knickerbockers’ origins as a live band. Beyond the dance-craze anthem “Jerk Town” and the venerable R&B instrumental “Twine Time,” the set offers a memorable mix of the British Invasion, R&B and Motown covers that dominated the band’s live repertoire at the time, with memorable renditions of the Zombies’ “She’s Not There” and the Kinks anthems “You Really Got Me” and “All Day and All of the Night.” They also tear into the Kingsmen’s garage novelty “The Jolly Green Giant,” the Motown standard “Money (That’s What I Want)” and the R&B classics “Land of 1000 Dances” and “The ‘In’ Crowd.” LP $16 SKU:11881
KNICKERBOCKERS- Lies mono edition Beatlesque jangle, garage grit and frat-rock adrenaline)SAALE - Label:SUNDAZED Out of print in its original LP format for nearly half a century, this vintage ’60s gem has been sourced from the original mono tapes and pressed on 180 gram vinyl, with complete original cover art. Although they ironically rode the faux-English sound of “Lies” to chart success, the Knickerbockers were actually seasoned live performers who were adept at whipping Garden State crowds into a frenzy long before the British Invasion hit U.S. shores. A distinctive blend of Beatlesque jangle, garage grit and frat-rock adrenaline. LP $16 SKU:14433
KROKODIL-The First Recordings 60s Krautrock legends 180 gram vinyl—also includes bonus region free DVD! -Label:KROKODIL First official reissue of the second Krokodil album, "Swamp". The infectious album, originally issued by Liberty in 1970, shows a band in flux between the scorching boogie-blues workouts of their eponymous debut and the massive stoned psych action of their third album masterpiece ("An Invisible World Revealed,"). Many German and Swiss groups attempted to sing in English to broaden their audience and virtually all failed to do so. Yet "Swamp" reveals itself to be one of the best examples of this phenomena, venturing into Van Morrison, Fairport Convention, and even Wailers territory at times, even as the rest of the band experimented with sitars, flutes and avant percussion. A great artistic development for the band without ever drifting into pop clichés. Recorded at Bavaria-Tonstudios, München. Comes on 180-gram vinyl, presented in a gatefold sleeve with an embossed crocodile leather front cover. The printed inner sleeve offers many previously unpublished photographs. LP $25 SKU:17007
