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

2011-10-30T17:46:00.000+02:00

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)

2011-10-30T12:05:00.000+02:00

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

2011-01-11T00:00:00.019+02:00

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.

TOM MAHAIRAS - SEEKERS OF THE TRUTH

2011-01-07T17:49:00.007+02:00

From Acid Archives

"Seekers Of The Truth" 1972 (Janco 7256) [insert]
Christian fringe-folk/incredibly strange artefact
featuring amateur organ/guitar folkrock on one side,
and priceless spoken word drug-head salvation stories
on the other. Amazing front cover and funny liner
notes. A must within the genre. [PL]
~~~
One side of beautiful haunting christian psychedelic
folk from former drug user turned preacher. Mahairas'
voice and guitar is backed by chamber orchestration
similar to that used on the Arthur Lee Harper album.
The second side of the LP is spoken word featuring
Tom and his wife giving testimony on how they turned
from drugs to religion; plenty of talk about drug use
and someone who "went insane" on LSD. Might have some
appeal to the fans of incredibly strange music. [MA]

Doreen Kostynuik - I Wish You Rainbows

2010-11-08T15:28:00.005+02:00

Infos from http://waxidermy.com/
Doreen bears it all on this solo journey.
While there are some standard (original) folk and bluegrass songs,
the real interesting parts are on the spoken-word tracks.
On these songs she opens up on a personal level which at first made me feel uncomfortable,
but over time became bearable owing to the poetic nature of its telling.
There is an especially interesting self-revelation recorded over herself singing and playing the guitar. The album was recorded in Ottawa with no indication of the year.

(by request) Bob Kolve - Chase The Clouds Away (1982)

2010-09-12T21:10:00.008+03:00

From the back of cover

It is not accident that Bob Kolve left his Washington State home and traveled over 300 miles to New York to record this album. He was seeking the best sound, musicianship and creative atmosphere to formularize his unique style. Having recorded at Demo-Vox Sound Studio in Brooklyn in 1979, he returned where he could work undisturbed with engineer/producter Frank Grassi. But, unlike their earlier efforts "Dreams" and "Neptune's Sea", a new dimension to Bob's talent evolved when writer Jim Hayden and arranger/writer Tony Kessier joined the creative team with some exciting material.

What emerges on this record is a new blend of simple country rock stirring ballads, and slick, sophisticated jazz-rock. This work then is a fusion of Bob's personal tastes and the "New York Influence". Predictable... NO. Exciting and Entertaining... DEFINITELY!

Now back in the "Evergreen State", Bob is receiving enthusiastic reviews in the many clubs and lounges where he appears.

In an age of inflation, poor record sales due in large part to disappointing music, and pessimism about the future, we invite you to take this album home... it's the kind of album you used to buy... and it's just to "Chase Your Clouds Away".

From Mike Musiclover
"Neptune's Sea" song is Highly recommended for me.
But really I don't like this lp. Maybe you find it more interesting by me .
Anyway as this is very rare , here is your chance to listen before starting to search for this.

DAYLE STANLEY - A CHILD OF HOLLOW TIMES

2010-07-12T19:38:00.005+03:00

Dayle is a Joan Baez type from Boston .
She topped Broadside magazine's best of local list the year this record came out.
She would be merely a typical strident folkie,
except that Dayle decided to insert a freaky cross between a yodel
and a rolled 'r' in half her songs.
This makes her the female answer to Robbie Basho
(who is definitely one of the hottest howlers),
except that she only has two albums (this is the first one from 1963).listen "CROW ON THE CRADLE"

Track List
A1.A CHILD OF HOLLOW TIMES
A2.MOTHERLESS CHILD
A3.THE FOUNDLINGS
A4.NOBODY KNOWS THAT I HAVE A NAME

PENDULUM - S/T

2010-07-04T00:19:00.012+03:00

Formed in 1961 by "Bob".
"Ric" is the second and last remaining member of the original Pendulum.
The others two members are "Gene" and "Mike".
This is the only info that I have from the back cover.
Some consider that the date of released is early 70's (1973).

I'm not sure. I believe the original date of released is after 1975 probably at 1977
(but the recordings maybe exist from early 70's).
This is a rare lp at these days (Baldwin Records Cs-7948).
It's a very good rock lp ...highlights the covers of Uriah Heep's Easy Livin
and Jethro Tull's Locomotive Breath.
"Give me Good Lovin" in totally other dimention, excellent the original "Journey To Nowhere"

2010-05-23T22:58:00.007+03:00

Sotiris Komatsioulis is one of the best kept secrets of the early 70s Greek psychedelic era. He made an ultra rare single in 1971, enjoyed some media exposure at the time and came close to a successful career. In 1973 he moved to England, where he has been living until recently.

This compilation contains the 2 tracks of his impossible to find single (b1 , b2) , and presents, for the first time ever, 6 unreleased tracks (side a) recorded in 1972-73, when he was trying to secure a contract with Columbia records in Greece and 3 tracks with English lyrics, that have been recorded in the UK in 1974 (b3-b5).

Some of the best early 70s Greek psychedelic tracks ever recorded with great fuzz guitars, hammond organ and hunting vocals.Trck list

a2.Kita File (Look Friend)

There is one 45' on "Inside" records from 1974 .
So probably the record realised at the same era .
This single has the songs "Moonbeams " and "Liten to me" both from the lp.

Mid 70's duo from Kentucky, private late nite lounge rock , plesant but not highly recomended by me ... at least one killer track "Only You" on side B.

(by request) JULES BLATTNER GROUP - CALL ME MAN

2010-03-09T23:06:00.005+02:00

DESCRIPTION TAKEN BY
http://www.rocky-52.net/chanteursb/blattner_jules.htm

Jules Blattner is a rock & roll original, from a town that spawned one of the great founding rock & roll originals, Chuck Berry. Born in St. Louis, MO, in 1941, he was a young teenager when the music caught on, and was already making plans to do something with it when the music began roaring up the chart in 1955. At age 15, in 1956, he organized his first group, Jules Blattner & the Teen Tones. Evidently, they were the first rock & roll band (or, at least, the first white rock & roll band) ever seen in the area, made of kids from around there (and so young that Blattner's mother drove them to their gigs in the early days), and they had the field to themselves. And for quite a while, on that lower end of the rock & roll business, they cleaned up, playing hundreds of local shows over the next few years. In 1959, they also got noticed by Bob Lyons, who owned a small local label, Bobbin Records, and decided to record them. The resulting single, "Rock & Roll Blues" b/w "Gambling Man," cut at Lyons' garage studio, is regarded as a classic of late-era rockabilly, and even got good reviews in Billboard and Cashbox. It hit number eight locally in St. Louis, which was enough to generate a second single, "Teen Town" b/w "Green Stuff." And thanks to their local standing, they got to share stages with such national luminaries as Jesse Belvin, Brenda Lee, the Isley Brothers, and Little Richard when they played St. Louis.For all of their success on-stage, Blattner's records never reached a national audience, and not even a switch to the larger K-Ark label, based in Nashville, in 1960, solved the problem. He shifted a bit with the times, rechristening the Teen Tones as the Twist Tones in the early '60s, and later switching to the more all-purpose Jules Blattner Group. He also cut his first LP, A Musical Tour of Gaslight Square, named for the center of the St. Louis music scene and issued on the Norman label in 1964. The latter company was owned by Norman Weinstrorer, a producer and businessman who'd been involved with Buddy Holly early in the latter's career on Coral Records. By late 1964, he was on Coral himself and made his debut for the label with a searing cover of Chuck Berry's "No Money Down," which got a great review but did little business. And Blattner made much closer contact with the St. Louis-born legend the following year when he and his band ended up backing him (without credit) on an album titled — incongruously enough — In London, which included Blattner's "Butterscotch Twist," rewritten as "Butterscotch."
Blattner's brand of rock & roll was out of favor nationally during the second half of the 1960s, but he was always able to make something of a living on-stage. Recording success continued to elude him, though he had a couple of close brushes with serious chart action in the early '70s, while signed to Buddah Records (where one of his three LPs was a somewhat spacy, psychedelic/conceptual release, conceived and recorded very long after its appropriate era, credited to Seluj Renttalb, which was "Jules Blattner" spelled in reverse). He only ever really slowed down during the disco era in the second half of the 1970s, when the work dried up. He was forced to work a regular day job for a time, but by the 1980s he was back playing regularly again, and has never stopped since — even in his sixties, he works at least two nights a week, and is regarded as a musical institution in the St. Louis era. What's more, at the end of the 1990s, the German-based Buffalo Bop label re-released his Bobbin Records sides on two of their CD compilations of classic rockabilly. His version of Berry's "No Money Down" also appeared on Bear Family's That'll Flat Git It!, Vol. 9 rockabilly anthology. And in 2004 the German Hydra Bck label issued an entire Jules Blattner CD compilation covering his early rock & roll and rockabilly sides going into the mid-'60s.track list

You must have musical education to understand , what happen at Keyhole's lp's.
Also , these records hasn't any connection with psych-rockish and heavy rock community . More folkish ,artistic with delicate and heavenly voices . The voice of Mimi Armstrong came directly from Edem !
"Glory" lp is by far the best record at Keyhole's discography . Tracks like "Peace" , "Glory" ,"Sing, Sing Alleluia" are fallen stars.
The second one that must listen is the "Sweet Jesus".Go here to do this

REAL EYES - S/T

2010-02-24T23:21:00.008+02:00

From Acid Archives
One of the best 80s discoveries, this is pretty wild stuff, has a crude garage edge, especially when it gets heavy. The songwriting is pretty interesting and thoughtful, and as 80s private press LPs go, this is distinctive and memorable enough to explain why psych dealers jumped on its bandwagon. A lot of the lyrics are pretty stoned. There is a lot going on here, with enough weird hooks and surprising moments to give any listener a fair amount of kicks. I like side two, especially the closing “Visions of Obscurity V,” better than side one. In the long run, whether this will be a keeper for any individual listener will probably be determined by the insane 12-minute “Madman’s Game,” an elaborate epic that encapsulates everything distinctive about this record. I’m not sure how strongly to recommend this album, but I do recommend it and it’s not boring or predictable. Coming with a 90 pages booklet with drawings and lyrics.

Esperanza Encantada -S/T

2010-01-31T20:04:00.008+02:00

From Acid Archives
"Esperanza Encantada" 1970 (Certron 7016)
Young Hispanic vocal group doing mixed English and Spanish language material, about half covers of the Beatles, Stones, and Tim Hardin. The rest is originals with crystal clear teenage female vocals. Highly rated by some. The trio is backed by a pick-up band who provide some fuzz on "Gimme shelter" among the folkrockers.

BILL NELSON - NORTHERN DREAM

2010-01-28T16:30:00.010+02:00

Excellent guitarist Bill Nelson, was born in Wakefield and at early age playing guitar and organized a variety of bands. Northern Dream is the first solo Lp (1971)
Holyground was a meeting place for Wakefield's beat scene, and Nelson was invited to play on records released by the studio's own label, also called Holyground. He played guitar on a track on the 1971 album, "A-Austr", a titled culled from an encyclopaedia reference. He also performed on three songs on "Astral Navigations", a similar LP assembled by the Holyground collective, together with Preston heavy rock band Thundermother. The albums were sold through the Record Bar, but their tiny pressing runs led to them fetching huge sums on the progressive rock market by the mid-1980'sMore Bill Nelson here

by request: JON & ROBBIN - ELASTIC EVENT

2010-01-19T22:27:00.004+02:00

Jon Abnor put out several records on the Abnak label in 1963 and 1964. Although they got a bit of airplay in Dallas, they didn't chart nationally. Meanwhile, he spent his time running the day-to-day operations of his father's record label. In 1965, after an unsuccessful attempt to go to a national audience by releasing a single on Atco, Jon was paired with female vocalist Javonne Braga as the duo Jon & Robin. (Javonne was called Robin because she was a replacement for the first singer, Robin Beavers, who quit before the duo started recording.) As it turned out, the duet proved to be a better arrangement for Jon's success, with several chart records nationally. Their first hit was "Do It Again A Little Bit Slower" [Abnak 119], which reached the national top-20 in late spring, 1967. This and several followup singles were billed as "Jon & Robin & the In Crowd."

ALLISON - People From Outer Space

2010-01-02T15:57:00.006+02:00

Allison is a exceptional Greek neo-psychedelic band, which was formed in 2003 by HUMAN GRAPE guitarist, 3 ex PURPLE OVERDOSE members and an interesting female singer.
The band has opened for groups such as the Fuzztones, the Electric Prunes, Radio Birdman, the Walkabout etc. during their recent Athens performances.
With People from Outer Space, their first album, ALLISON may well look straight into the eyes of the best contemporary neo-psychedelic/ progressive, spacerock groups worldwide.

THE SUN OF GREECE - S/T

2010-01-02T13:51:00.002+02:00

SUN OF GREECE is one of the best kept secrets of the early 70s Greek psychedelic era. Their music is perfectly comparable with SOCRATES and FOUR LEVELS OF EXISTENCE with excellent hard psychedelic progressive sound, great fuzz guitars and hammond organ.
The band was formed in Germany by three Greek expatriates and one German in 1972. Original Greek lyrics were written during military service under dictatorship in the early 70s.
After the fall of the military junta, the band returned to Greece and released privately one of the rarest Greek singles ever, the holy grail for collectors of 70s Greek psychedelic progressive music. At the same time, they recorded several other songs, which were supposed to become their first album, but remained totally unreleased until today.
This compilation presents for the first time ever these songs and their rare single, i.e. everything that has been recorded by SUN OF GREECE between 1972 and 1975, 9 tracks in total

YAYS & NAYS - S/T

2009-11-27T13:12:00.006+02:00

From Acid Archives
An extraordinary excercise in turned-on 1960s cool from an odd band with 3 guys and 3 gals, performing a tongue-in-cheek Men vs Women thematic dual on most of the 12 tracks. Obviously inspired by the Lee & Nancy and Sonny & Cher duets, with a tough garage folkrock edge added. The Yays & Nays bend their gents vs ladies concept at precisely the right places to create a unique, clever and funny experience. The women come out on top, at least the way I heard it. The gals sing ensemble, while the guys (or the main guy) is typically solo and often moves into a "manly" Elvis/Lee H crooning that's just right for the trip. Excellent, varied songwriting. Hard to describe accurately, and it needs to be heard by any 1960s fan. Cool cover shows the band clad in vintage gear in a swamp, probably some sort of subliminal message.

JOHN TERLAZZO - HONOR AMONG THIEVES

2009-11-19T18:44:00.006+02:00

A melody dark folk-rock lp form 1983 USA private pressing. More Terlazzo here
http://www.johnterlazzo.com/

From Acid Archives
"Incredibly dark loner poet folk/rock. Very heavy Leonard Cohen influence, but makes LC seem cheerful by comparison. Even the one song that is upbeat, almost good-timey, has a dark undertone. Terlazzo is accompanied on many tracks by a beautiful haunting female backing vocal which is often wordless. Several tracks have fine electric guitar leads and solos. The poetic nature of his writing rather stark and often “esoteric” lyric images, brought out well by his rather limited baritone voice. I rate this at the top of the loner folkie heap" "Enjoyable modern-sounding dark folk and singer/songwriter with a vibe similar to Bruce Janaway or Bob Theil. There is indeed a notable Leonard Cohen influence but Terlazzo needn't be embarrassed, as this is simply the genre he belongs too, and he does it well, with a personal voice and inventive arrangements including spooky female harmonies and sparse folkrock arrangements. I counted three excellent tracks with "Seven stars over Sicily" a favorite, several more good ones, and only one dud."

Robert Corff
The Gormet's Delight(Joy of Cooking) and

According to COUNTRY JOE McDONALD (as written by him on his web site) this album contains possibly the rarest FISH stuff not only because of “Barry’s Caviar Jam” (here entitled “Gas Man”).

GAS-S-s! is a hilarious hippie movie where people above 30 are all killed by a gas...
The LP contains songs by JOY OF COOKING under the name of GOURMET’S DELIGHT, and the FISH without Joe (but he contributes compositions) under the name JOHNNY & THE TORNADOS. Most of them feature the main actor from the movie as lead singer, a certain ROBERT CORFF (formerly a member of THE PURPLE GANG). Some of the tunes are instrumentals .

01.Robert Corff - I'm Looking For A World
02.Gourmet's Delight - First Time , Last Time

----------------------------------------------------

The Movie
They used to say "don't trust anyone over 30," but there's no one over 30 left to distrust in this loosely plotted satirical comedy directed by Roger Corman. During the opening ceremonies for a chemical and biological weapons facility in Alaska, an experimental gas is accidentally released which has an unusual effect — it rapidly advances the aging process of those over 25, while those under 25 are left untouched. Soon, the world's elders are dead, with the planet left to the youth. Wisecracking hippy Coel (Robert Corff) and his girlfriend, Cilla (Elaine Giftos), discover that rookie cops and conservative frat rats have taken over their hometown of Dallas, TX, so they hit the road in his vintage Ford Edsel in search of a friendly commune in New Mexico. Along the way, they pair up with music-obsessed Marissa and her radical boyfriend, Carlos (Ben Vereen), and as they look for their new home, they encounter Hell's Angels-turned-country club members, a neo-fascist football team, a pack of painfully shy would-be sexual predators, rock star and self-proclaimed "godhead" A.M. Radio (Country Joe McDonald), and Edgar Allen Poe (Bruce Karcher), who roams the highways on his motorcycle. Gas-S-S-S! (aka Gas-s-s-s...or, It May Become Necessary to Destroy the World in Order to Save It) proved to be the last of Roger Corman's many projects for American International Pictures; according to Corman, AIP subjected the film to severe prerelease cutting without his consent, and the interference was one of the factors that inspired him to start his own company, New World Pictures.

2009-11-04T21:03:00.008+02:00

Rare. Very Rare.From 1978 USA.
There are too many wishlists, include this lp (called also "the woman with the chopper")and this is the first time that appears in the net . In my oppinion, NOT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED RECORD, but very intresting and plesant. Acid Archives is very poor on informations .

The only informations I have, is from back cover. No insert included (at least at my copie). So, the line up is....

Rogene ??, vocals
Peter Morin, lead Guitar vocals
John Bushnell , rhythm Guitar vocals
Greg Daniel , bass vocals
Isaac Becerra , drums

Track List
1 Get Down Biker Music
2 Turn Me Over, Don't Turn Me Out
3 Joe Henry's Bar
4 If I've Ever Seen A Biker He Is 1
5 On The Water Front
6 Is That A Crime
7 Cheezy Rider
8 Running Away From Yesterday
9 Shovel Man
10 Harley Song
11 Jerk Me Off
12 Get Down Fade Out

8 tracks are written & sung by Rogene .Who's this girl ,maybe the woman on cover??
I can't find anything about Rogene and the other members.

Musicaly it's like Charles Daniel Band (without Charle Daniel but with Rogene).
I rate it 3stars at 5.
I Like 3 songs
" If I've Ever Seen A Biker He Is 1",
"Shovel Man"
& "On The Water Front".
I like also the girl & the chopper.
If I may, choose the chopper.
I can find another girl ,I can't find the chopper!

Oh! Just a moment....I just saw chopper has 2
positions!! Ok, I choose the chopper WITH the girl...yeahh!!

A little known one-off single from this obscure band. There was a band, featuring guitarist Mark Griffiths (Harsh Reality, Matthews Southern Comfort) called Axe operating Northampton around this time, who made an acetate-only album.

UNIVERSE - S/T

2009-11-02T17:54:00.006+02:00

From Acid Archives
"Universe" 1977 (PBR International 7002)

The opening “Rock In The Sky” starts with a little acoustic guitar, then, wham! Synthesizers come in double barreled, with a loud bass-y one anchoring the song and a higher more unpredictable one soloing over it. THIS is a synthesizer song! It would only be a couple of years before digital synths would rule the world and the instrument would ruin a lot of otherwise good music, so it’s hard to remember how cool the early analogue synths could be. Here it’s as powerful and as mind expanding as any guitars. There’s no way anything else on this album could come close to the first song, and the subsequent songwriting is only OK, though the synth playing remains creative and surprising. Unfortunately the wooden singing really drags this music down, and the rest of the album as a whole is kind of a disappointment despite some cool moments scattered throughout. The mix of space-rock and Christian themes is unique, making this fall into the “I didn’t know Christians made music like that” category. This is the kind of record that makes you wish that certain musicians would take a secondary role with a better artist rather than choose to lead their own band. It’s tantalizing to think how cool this synth player would have been in another context. [AM]
From Mike Musiclover
I love this lp, but this is my oppinion ! Some love it, some not ! So, you have the oportunity to listen this , as never realased at CD .
