SHAW ALLEN SHAW - This Side That Side & South Fork Crow Rive

from ACID ARCHIVES

A dorky-looking early 1970s trio with acoustic guitars ,
electric bass, and drums.
The band (using an expanded setting) played local ballrooms and lounges which explains the odd cover selection, ranging from acoustic folk to  things like "Long Tall Texan" and "Games People Play".
There are also Dylan And Beatles covers, along with two band originals. The albums rarity may be more noteworthy than any overt musical qualities.
The band was known as The defiants During the teenbeat era, and in 1972 recorded a second album , "South Fork Crow River".

from MIKE MUSICLOVER
The  "This Side , That Side " lp hasn't something special exept the
"High Flyin Bird " and 2-3 more songs
Mike Shaw - Bass and Vocals
Terry Shaw - Drums and Vocals
JIm Allen -     Guitar and Vocals

"South Fork Crow River" lp for me it's much better .
Same line-up plus Dewey Larson on keyboards, harmonica and vocals.
"Love is Gone" was written by Dennis Shaw, yet another Shaw brother.

EUGENE CARNAN - S/T (1972)

Here is a great surprise for us. An unknown UK album with such a great musical potential. Musically it is a very powerful guitar dominated underground rock such as Black Sabbath, Blue Cheer, Dark or Grannie. The rarety factor is way above all those other rare UK album, which stay in low pressings of 99 copies and 15-20 such as Dark. This one has been pressed only 4 times ever. In September 1971 Eugene Carnan entered a UK-wide competition for “Best New Band” run by the famous Melody Maker magazine, they recorded the album in 1972 and took it to London to Eden Studios for a demo pressing and cut 4 acetates. Eugene Carnan a 3 piece band are from The Rhondda Valley, in South Wales, UK with guitar & vocals, bass and drums. All own composition. A killer album from beginning to end.

Greek Collectors Shakes and Rockin' tunes from 60's and 70's


I had a conversation with a good friend for the greek rock scene of 60's and 70's.
There are so many collections with 45's from 60's and 70's but some diamonds are still missing.
Rare, a few collectors have the opportunity to own them as 45's.

A few years ago, released some cd's (with lots of tracks that appears for the first time at any kind of collection) .
I found them at a local super market !!!
There are many people that believe the existence of these cd's are a myth.

This post is just a gift for those that searching and love the greek shake & rock scene.

As you understand some songs are very rare at any kind of format, even in mp3. Against all odds, served in pure 320kbps sound.
(Sotiris X...thanx in advance)
