"Trash Box" Vol 2 of 5 - VA

"Here is the links to the five volumes of the trash box compilation. This is a mid nineties reissue of the fabulous early Pebbles compilation releases minus the Pebbles Surf LP. Enjoy!!" - Red Neckerson (link in the sitebar)The Trash Box is a 5-CD box set of mid-1960s garage rock and psychedelic rock recordings, primarily by American bands. This box set is similar to the earlier Pebbles Box (a 5-LP box set) and includes almost all of the same recordings in that box set (and in the same order), along with numerous bonus tracks at the end of each disc. Supposedly, the Trash Box collects the first five volumes of the CDs in the Pebbles series (i.e., those released by AIP Records, not to be confused with the 4 earlier CDs that were issued by ESD Records). However, as is generally true of the CD reissues of these five volumes (though not nearly to the same extent), the tracks differ significantly on all five discs as compared to both the original Pebbles LPs and the later Pebbles CDs in the corresponding volumes; and the surf rock rarities on Pebbles, Volume 4 have been eschewed entirely. Overall, there are 109 tracks in the box set (excluding the introduction and ending cuts) as compared to 101 songs on the individual CDs and 72 tracks in the Pebbles Box. Although most of the recordings on the Trash Box were released at some point on one of the individual Pebbles albums, several of the songs have not appeared elsewhere in the Pebbles series. Inexplicably, one of these songs is the well-known hit "I Fought the Law (but the Law Won)" by the Bobby Fuller Four (on Disc Four) – which is also included in the Pebbles Box – in place of the much rarer "Wine Wine Wine" by Bobby Fuller that appears on Pebbles, Volume 2. - from wikitrax Vol 2:
1. The Split Ends – "Rich with Nothin'" 2. The Sons of Adam – "Feathered Fish" 3. The Road – "You Rub Me the Wrong Way" 4. The Buddahs – "Lost Innocence" 5. The Regiment – "My Soap Won't Float" 6. The Inmates – "More Than I Have" 7. The Inmates – "Fakirs and Thieves" 8. The Little Boy Blues – "I Can Only Give You Everything" 9. Phil & the Frantics – "I Must Run" 10. The Choir – "It's Cold Outside" 11. The Journeymen – "She's Sorry" 12. The Wee Four – "Weird" 13. William Penn Fyve – "Blow My Mind" 14. Randy Alvey & Green Fuz – "Green Fuz" 15. The Bees – "Voices Green and Purple" 16. Nobody's Children – "Good Times" 17. The Sparkles – "Ain't No Friend of Mine" 18. The Barbarians – "Hey Little Bird" 19. The Spades – "You're Gonna Miss Me" 20. The Ground Floor – "It's Alright Now" 21. The Brogues – "I Ain't No Miracle Worker"

Thanx for this.
I had the original Pebbles vinyl at one time - Volume 2 was and is
still the best garage comp ever,
especially in terms of pacing and programming.
