"LE BEAT BESPOKE" Vol. 5

CD 5, featuring rare underground dancefloor fillers from the New Untouchables club scene, brought to the market in conjunction with Circle Records. With bespoke artwork from Pip Pip! , it highlights DJ Rob Bailey's inspired selection of obscure, hard to find, yet none the less must have tracks that display the ability to move seamlessly from one musical style to the next. All, naturally, done with restraint and good taste, but at the same time, compelling the listener to groove along with it all. This is number 5 of the series. (Shindig)Twenty-five tracks by never-heard-of super-obscure bands of the psychedelic, garage rock and pop genres. I mean - most (if not all) bands and artists featured on this 'Beat Bespoke' CD are unknown to even collectors of rare '60's psych and garage. Tunes that did the most for me include Gerrard with "Sexologie", Daisy Clan, Flash & The Dynamic's catchy "Glory Be", the Three Dog Night-like song "Hip Hip Hooray" by Anderson And Shot, Ola & The Janglers with their two cuts on this title, the awesome Lionceaux giving us "Nowhere To Run" and Fardon & Kieswetter's inspiring "I'm Alive" (didn't Tommy James & The Shondells record this song on an lp of theirs?). Yes, a nice collection of the better tunes you've NEVER before heard. Also like the Strangers cover of the Monkees hit "Mary Mary". Highly recommended. (Ugly Things)trax:
