Starting out life as Peter and the Silhouttes, these happening cats kicked off their career in 1965 and a year later they unveiled a single called ''Claudette Jones,'' which can be heard on ''Tol-Puddle Martyrs.'' An aggressive rocker sporting a deadly vocal and a hook to slit your wrists for, ''Claudette Jones'' reminds me of a prime Pretty Things pounder, due to its insistently driving beat and hard-edged bluesy approach. When Peter and the Silhouttes changed their name to Tol-Puddle Martyrs, they also altered their style a bit, spicing their material with a groovy paisley fragrance. Released in 1967, ''Time Will Come'' features a round of cynical lyrics addressing the turbulent mood of the day and carries a rather haunting pitch that slashes right through your psyche. The vocal delivery on the tune is strong and convincing, while the taut instrumentation really locks it all together. The flip side of ''Time Will Come'' is just as effective. ''Social Cell'' boasts a catchy melody similar to Johnny Rivers' ''Secret Agent Man,'' and like ''Time Will Come,'' the tune is charted of thoughtful verse that finely captures band leader Peter Rechert's flair for writing top-flight observations. It should also be noted that Tol-Puddle Martyrs were a fantastic pop band. Their music does indeed flash plenty of commercial appeal, making the tracks on this record the kind of stuff you won't soon forget. Forever lodged in your brain these songs will be! The band's pop influence is especially evident on a single they issued in 1968, as the whimsical ''Love Your Life'' flickers with dapper Kinks aspirations. Smart arrangements and a sincere passion for the music, they performed are additional assets to be found in the recordings of Tol-Puddle Martyrs. Totally excellent tunes from yet another totally excellent sixties band from Australia!

The genius creativity of Fabrizio Cecchi embody itself in the Trip Hill project that has reached with ''Takes from oblivion'' its second work. The album has its roots in the american psychedelic music1967/69 and looses itself trough space-temporal expansion, lysergic temptations, acustic distorsions and sounding hallucinations that make ''Takes fom oblivion'' an absolute masterpiece of the italian psychedelic. 180 gr. vinyl, heavy quality sleeves.

Reissue of ultra-rare early 60??s Dome Records classic LP compilation of Teen Garage Bands from the Baltimore, MD area. Ralph Johnson, president of Wedge & Dome Records, was also the sponsor of many ''Battle Of the Bands'' shows throughout Maryland. These shows helped them find the bands that hadn??t already found them, since the grand prize for these shows was to have one of their songs on this album. The second prize at these shows was that they would pay 50% of their expenses to get a track for the album. These bands made up the Baltimore sound of the sixties- Baltimore??s own contribution to the Garage Band Sound. Thanks to Get Hip Records, this material is now available again. The original pressing of 500 copies of this LP went out of print in 1966, and original copies now sell for $200 and up if you??re lucky enough to run across one!

Dove Studio opened it??s doors in St. Louis Park, Mn. in the spring of 1964 and lasted until 1970. During the six year span the studio literally recorded hundreds of groups of all different kinds of music genres. Contained on this album are 27 gems of unissued rock and roll material, beginning with hard-driving Mike Waggoner and the Bops in ??64, and ending with probably the strangest recording session that ever occurred on Dove??s premises- Michael Yonkers in 1969. 15 different bands are represented in this package, each showcasing a different musical style. Starting things off with straight-ahead R&R are the Bops, Magpies and Mercymen, all of which owe a tip of the hat to Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly. R&B was a strong influence in the Twin Cities during the mid-60??s and the Lancers and the Nite Caps do their part to keep the style flowing. Since the Trashmen were out on the road most of ??64, the Underbeats took over as ''top-dog'' combo in their absence. Four unreleased tunes by the group are included here. Two of the top instrumental bands from the state, the F.B.I. Idiots (Gregory Dee & The Avanties in disguise) and the Titans show their wares, along with the female-led Marcia & the Lynchmen. In early 1966, Sir Laurence & The Crescents recorded a powerful, Raiders-like, open throttle rocker which has remained unissued ??til this day. Psychedelia/Punk was no stranger to the state of MN as witnessed by the Fragile Zookeeper, the Calico Wall, and an unknown, unnamed acetate of mammoth proportions included herein. Rounding things out is the Chad & Jeremy-like Longman & Fogel and the truly bizarre Michael Yonkers, who thought he was receiving transmissions through his guitar from aliens! In all cases, the bands contained on this project walked out of their respective sessions with acetates or mastertapes in hand to proceed with as they wished. Thankfully their musical legacy had survived the past three decades to finally see the light of day. Includes huge booklet with extensive liner notes, photos, etc.

Wollte man die Originale der auf "Love Peace And Poetry" versammelten Aufnahmen kaufen, man müsste wohl ein Vermögen auf den Tisch legen. Alle Songs der beiden Compilations stammen aus den späten 60er und frühen 70er Jahren. Inspiriert von Jefferson Airplane, Cream, Hendrix, Beatles und Zappa gründeten sich damals in den USA (und nicht nur dort) unzählige Bands. "Feed Your Head" hieß die Devise, und die Musik, die dabei in Kellern und Garagen entstand, war im wahrsten Sinne psychedelisch. 25 Jahre später sind diese Aufnahmen heißbegehrte Sammlerstücke. Mit "Love, Peace & Poetry ­ American Psychedelic Music" werden einige der besten Bands dieses verloren geglaubten Kapitels der Rock­Geschichte erstmals einem breiten Publikum zugänglich. Das gilt auch für die Bands, die auf "Love Peace & Poetry ­ Latin American Psychedelic Music" vertreten sind. Wer hätte gedacht, dass zum Ende der 60er Jahre auch in vielen Ländern Südamerikas das psychedelische Rock­Fieber grassierte. Erst in den frühen 80er Jahren stießen Sammler auf Platten von Almendra (Argentinien), Los Macs (Chile), Dud Dugs (Mexico) und Ladies W.C. (Venezuela). Gruppen, die ihren nordamerikanischen Kollegen in punkto Einfallsreichtum in nichts nachstanden.

Asiatische Bands und ihre bewusstseinserweiternden Eigenkompostionen. "Asian Psychedelic Music", dies ist das Motto des dritten Teils der außergewöhnlichen Samplerreihe "Love Peace & Poetry". Konzentrierten sich die Vorgänger auf die Nord- und Lateinamerikanische Szene, schaut man jetzt auf die andere Seite des Globus. Wieder wurden, nach langen Recherchen, zum Teil verschollen geglaubte Aufnahmen von Bands aus Korea, Singapur, Kambodscha, Hong Kong, Indien, Japan und der Türkei zusammengestellt. Viele der Gruppen spielen vorwiegend Coverversionen von großen Bands wie Jefferson Airplane oder Hendrix. "Love Peace & Poetry - Asian Psychedelic Music" präsentiert die eigenen Kompositionen der Bands. Dass sich diese Songs keineswegs vor den bekannten Größen des Genres aus Amerika oder Europa verstecken brauchen, hört man sofort. Diese Bands kreierten eine ganz eigene Variante von bewusstseinserweiternder Musik. Künstler wie Teddy Robin oder Erkin Kory, die sich beide in ihrer Heimat den Traum der großen Karriere erfüllen konnten, wagten den Kultur-Clash, was sich in der verblüffenden Kombination von orientalischen, asiatischen und anglo-amerikanischen Klängen niederschlug.

Psychedelic Rock, Acid Rock, Space Folk - Mitte der 60er Jahre begann in den USA und in England der drogenerprobte Siegeszug psychedelischer Musik. Was sich zunächst in Klassikern wie "Sgt. Pepper", "Their Satanic Majesties Request" oder "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" einer breiten Masse offenbarte, entwickelte sich bis Anfang der 70er Jahre zu einem weltumspannenden Phänomen. Auf der Compilation-Serie "Love Peace & Poetry" stehen nicht die großen Namen im Mittelpunkt, sondern Geheimtipps, deren Aufnahmen heute hochgehandelte Sammlerstücke sind, schillernde Perlen von obskuren Psychedelic-LPs aus allen Teilen der Welt. Japan machte da keine Ausnahme. In den Jahren 1968 bis 1972 schufen hier Bands wie The Happenings Four, Foodbrain, Blues Creation und The Beavers einen härteren Sound als die meisten ihrer westlichen Kollegen. Blues-gefärbter Heavy-Rock mit extrem verzerrten Wah-Wah-Gitarren, schwer rollenden Orgeln und extravaganten Soundexperimenten. Nicht zu schweigen von den Bands, die sich nicht auf englischsprachige Songs beschränkten, sondern auf japanisch ihre bewusstseinserweiternde Botschaften verbreiteten. Wie alle "Love, Peace & Poetry"-Compilations enthält auch "Japanese Psychedelic Music" umfangreiche Liner-Notes und hilfreiche Verweise auf Re-Issues.
