Making their debut on Wick Records, New York's own Steady Sun deliver two sublime sides of ethereal psych. We're not talking about your run-of-the-mill fuzz fodder here, folks - Steady Sun delivers some of the most refreshingly satisfying psychedelia in decades! Truth is the Needle floats out of the speakers like lysergic vapor, engulfing the listener in layers of delicate guitar, spaced-out vocals, and pulsating bass that swirl around the heavy, grounded groove - generating an intoxicating juxtaposition. On the flip is Lash Around, whose insistent beat and hook-heavy melody will send you through a sonic wormhole that marries the experimentation of Barrett era Floyd with the hypnotic bounce of 1990s Manchester.

Another great R’n’B dancer from the Dolemite!

Ace’s 45th anniversary 7-inch selection continues this month by taking us back to our roots, and bringing you incredible previously unreleased alternate takes of two all-time classics of rockin’ 1950s rhythm & blues.

R&B lovers will need no introduction to either Roy Brown’s ‘Boogie At Midnight’ or Lloyd Price’s ‘Lawdy Miss Clawdy’, but these recently discovered ‘Take One’s put whole new perspectives on two proven classics. The fast and furious ‘Boogie’ makes the issued 1951 master sound like a lullaby in comparison, while ‘Clawdy’ has an alternate opening line that would have guaranteed no airplay would have been forthcoming back in 1952.

Both tracks are taken from new transfers of the original acetate and tape sources, and both play loud and proud. Each side of the 45 offers a representation of the original label design that would have been used, had they been issued at the time of recording.

No self-respecting R&B singles collector will want to be without a copy of this essential commemorative single, featuring two of the greatest names in 1950s black American music.

One would be hard pressed to find a better example of the hormone-enriched, attitude-laden 1960s garage rock opus than ‘So What!!’ by San Diego’s Lyrics. Chris Gaylord's incredible rant over a pounding, almost blueswailing accompaniment on this late 1965 nugget never fails to hit the spot.

Coupled with its equally snotty flip ‘They Can't Hurt Me’, this double-whammy firebomb is an exasperatingly expensive item in its original incarnation, but we have made this great sound facsimile available at a fraction of the cost to accompany the new Big Beat garage psych collection “Blow My Mind!”. Grab ‘em while stocks last!

Despite a scant recorded legacy, the Royal Chessmen were one of the more popular 60s bands of the Mid-Ohio area.

Originally named for their hometown, 25 miles south of Canton, the Dover Chessmen, or simply the Chessmen, were assembled in 1965 by 15 year-old guitarist David Bird along with Dover High classmates Ken Weigand on bass, Keith Whiddon on guitar and Jeff Gintz on drums.

By 1967 Rich Bellanco of rival band the Pendletones had replaced Gintz, and Dave’s older brother Rodney Bird, a junior at Ohio State, was recruited on organ.

As they began to pick up local gigs they added equipment manager Edward Hardesty. They also MOD-ified their moniker to the more regal Royal Chessmen.

Two previously unreleased tracks have been rescued from the vaults by B-W label owner Matt Baker and are presented in this handsome gatefold sleeve.

The Black Chillies are the spiciest cocktail of rock'n'roll, latin surf and R&B. From Salamanca (Spain) they return with the wildest saxophonic fantasies to make you lose control with this sip of hi-energy instrumental. ''Suavesito!'' Enter soft and hit hard. The Black Chillies present their first single in advance of their forthcoming album.

This release is handmade and numbered silk screen cover. Reprint of Radio Martiko’s 2nd single from 2015.

"Louie Louie" by Belgian schlager legend Joske Harry's (aka Joe Harris) blows The Kingsmen's original version away. Absolute dancefloor-filler.
There must be about 11,283 versions of "Tabou." This ultra-rare gem by Burt Blanca just might be the ultimate version... or maybe not. Anyway, this is a must-have for your collection.

Los Saicos Created A Raw, Wild And Visceral Sound, The Southern Hemisphere Equivalent Of The Garage Rock That Was Coming Out Of The Us And Their Anthem 'Demolición' Is One Of The Most Insane '60s Punk Songs Of All Time. Unavailable On A 45 For Over A Decade, Here It Is Again! The Archaeology Of Rock'n'roll Is Much Like Any Other Form Of Digging. Significant Finds Demand The Re-Addressing Of Previously Considered Certainty. You Can Hear Direct Links To Both The Stooges And The Cramps Here And Several More Equally Enthralling Combos. The Latter Spawned Several Generations Of Individuals Who Would Dig Deep To Previously (Mostly) Unheard Seams Of Music And Other Forms Of Culture That Have Since Become Part Of The Mainstream Fabric. When Los Saicos' Front Man Erwin Flores Was Asked How Aware He And His Friends Were Of What Was Happening In Britain And The Us At The Time, Here's What He Had To Say: "We Knew The Beatles, They Were Our Idols. We Heard The Rolling Stones After Recording 'Demolición' And Also Bob Dylan And Others. The Primitive Nature Of Our Songs Is Something That Came Spontaneously Out Of My Head. The Band Had No Problem With Assimilating And Arranging It. We Thought Of Ourselves As Bad Boys And That Must Have Been A Driving Force." "Primitive To The Point Of Primordial, Los Saicos Are An Important Benchmark. Not Were. Who Ever Thought There Could Be A Combo Out There In Peru That Would Make The Sonics Sound Like Simon And Bloody Garfunkel? There Is Quite Possibly Some Other Music Out There, Someplace, That Could Well Make Us Re-Address This Consideration, But Until Then, Cherish This Short Course Of Saicotherapy."

The second release from the popular South-European surf-combo offers six cool tracks, presented on 10-inch wax!

Peanut Rubble was a power trio from Buckinhamshire, a rural area a few miles northwest of London. This Radio Luxembourg Studios recordings were made back in 1968, being an early sample of british heavy music one year before Led Zeppelin released their first album. They used to play in college/university circuit, airbases and youth clubs with 100w Marshall stacks, being too loud for some of those clubs. They supported bands such as Status Quo, The Pretty Things, Arthur Brown or Pink Floyd. The single contains three remastered songs of pure loud heavy blues, with a smooth drum playing and a thick fuzzy sound, being now released for the first time. It includes an insert with the story of the band.

An extract from the novel “Bovver Birds Rool”: Dawn pushed Sue’s head as hard as she could against the stone wall of the school. The connection registered with a gruesome “thud”. “That’s for getting off with Steve”, she snarled. A second girl cracked Sue sharply around the face with an open palm and then kicked her as she slumped to the ground.. “Do not mess…” shrieked Jane. “Do you understand, Bitch!” A descending bike chain left a bloody trail across Sue’s now fractured skull. “Have you learned your lesson, Bitch, or do you want some knuckle too? Well… do you?” Dawn smiled approvingly at Jane and the two girls linked arms and walked away. “What are you staring at?” , snapped Dawn at their first passer-by, Dave, a pale and sullen lad from school. “I’m not quite sure,” he quickly replied. “It walks like a bloke and talks like a bloke, but it’s got girly bits… Or, at least, I think it has.” Jane quickly broke away from Dawn and started to run towards Dave who immediately quickened his pace. “And you’ll never find out you piece of chicken shit,” she screamed. (to be continued…) Bovver Birds & Knuckle Girls... a rare burst of etiquette. So what would you get on a date with a Bovver Bird or a Knuckle Girl? A few harsh words and a cheap thrill- or a competitively-priced thrill, at least. Up against the wall. Nothing fancy, just a bit of “hanky panky” with your tougher-than-average Knuckle Sandwich Nancy. “Girls used only to resort to psychological bullying… Now they’re moving in gangs and using bicycle chains, knives and clubs. In fact they’re beginning to behave in a way once only associated with the roughest of boys.”

This album was the last for one of the founders of The Cavestompers! Ivan "Cosmos".His final contribution was the authorship of several songs.Do not look for him on the cover photo-he is Kosmos and invisibly present in our ranks like a phantom.His place at the moment occupied by Paul Petrov ,who together with llya"Crusher" Sterzhanov in the 90s founded the first Russian garage punk band the Crushers.
This is the ultimate russian garage punk!!! fuzz all over...listen it...
