Lovingly compiled by musicologist and all-around 60's music guru Ben Chaput, these ten comps feature some of the best obscure sides late '60's music has to offer. For the past ten years or so, rare psychedelic rock, garage and freakbeat have occupied the hearts and minds of music collectors everywhere as well as helping to empty their wallets. Scores of labels have popped up in the last decade dedicated to nothing but digging up and re-issuing rare private press releases as well as long-forgotten records put out on major labels. Think about how popular and noteworthy the Nuggets boxsets are and the Pebbles compilations and some of the other boxsets seeking to give listeners the best music of the '60's. Then, think about this great series of sets featuring some of the best music of the '60's all geared towards the collector and music freak, with rare songs never used on any other compilation. Truly, with this set of well-put-together comps, fans of this kind of music have hit the motherlode. (Lost In The Grooves)

P.S. Some real cool artwork on these albums. which I've included and are worth checking out.
BONUS 1 OF 8 (Pt. 1)
BILLY CHILDISH - Archive from 1959; The Billy Childish Story @320
Billy Childish has been releasing records, painting, writing poetry and generally doing his own thing for the past 32 years.
He first took to the stage back in October 1977 with seminal punk garage band The Pop Rivets, they split after two years and from there he joined The Milkshakes along with fellow Pop Riveter Bruce Brand and local lads Micky Hampshire & Russ Wilkins, after that came Thee Mighty Caesars, Thee Headcoats, The Buff Medways and right up to date with his two current ensembles The Musicians Of The British Empire & The Chatham Singers.
This 51 Track compilation is a look back at the more Rock N Roll aspects of his musical career which is why there’s no spoken word or poetry on this album.
In amongst these more well known bands are tracks he recorded solo and with other artistes like The Delmonas, Thee Headcoatees, Singing Loins, Kyra Rubella etc.
Over the years Billy has been championed by lots of great bands and musicians including Beck, Mudhoney and Kurt Cobain and more recently by Eddie Vedder & The White Stripes. Even with that praise Billy has been largely ignored by the music press in this country which is really surprising as he has now released over 120 albums (including 4 on one day!).
Many of the tracks on this compilation have been unavailable for ages and some also have never appeared on CD as well as many unpublished photos on the cover and 12 page booklet.
Lois Wilson (Mojo) has writing the sleeve notes and there will also be a deluxe triple vinyl version as well as a double CD digipak deluxe package.
Now seems to be the perfect time for people to catch up with what he has been doing for the last 32 years. (Damaged Goods)
BONUS 1 OF 8 (Pt. 2)
BILLY CHILDISH - Archive from 1959; The Billy Childish Story @320
In an era when a band is considered unusually prolific if they release an album every 18 months, Billy Childish is a glorious anomaly, a man who believes in the power of music in its raw, pure state and isn't afraid to roll tape and capture the moment when the inspiration strikes. Childish's muse is a frequent enough visitor that he's released nearly 120 albums since his first band, the Pop Rivets, cut their debut LP in 1979, and what's more surprising than the fact he's made so many records is that most of them fall somewhere between pretty good and pretty great. In 1991, Sub Pop took up the daunting task of assembling a Billy Childish career anthology with the two-CD set I Am the Billy Childish, which pulled one track each from the 50 albums Childish had put out to date; since then, the man's body of work has continued to expand at a feverish pace, and Archive from 1959: The Billy Childish Story by necessity takes a different approach. Instead of summarizing the totality of Childish's catalog of recorded work, Archive from 1959 is an introduction to his rock & roll music, ignoring for the time being his dabblings in blues, folk, and spoken word. Archive from 1959 doesn't bother itself with a chronological sequence of Childish's recordings, as this set jumps between decades and the man's various groups (Thee Milkshakes, Thee Mighty Caesars, Thee Headcoats, Thee Buff Medways, the Musicians of the British Empire and still more), but his approach hasn't changed very much with the years -- Childish still bashes away at his cheap guitar like some unholy fusion of the Sonics, Link Wray, and the Who in their early amphetamine overdrive period, he still can throw down a furious rant as easily as a snarky pop culture homage or a fractured observation on the battle of the sexes, and he seems perfectly incapable of not pouring out one hundred percent of his heart and soul when he steps up to the microphone. The 51 songs on these two CDs hardly tell the full story about Childish and his music, but as a summary of what he does best, it's accurate, compelling, and it rocks hard -- this is garage rock that holds up a mirror to every corner of this man's soul, and there are a few dozen remarkable stories to be found on Archive from 1959, along with music powerful enough to awake the dead.

BONUS 2 OF 8
ED BRUCE - Puzzles 1968-1969 (Bear Family) @320
The single-disc, 29-track compilation Puzzles collects all of Ed Bruce's RCA recordings from the late '60s, including "Blue Denim Eyes," "By Route of New Orleans," "Walker's Woods," "Last Train to Clarksville," "Painted Girls and Wine," "Memphis Morning," "Why Can't I Come Home," "Ninety Seven More to Go," "Give Me More Than You Can Take," "Something Else to Mess Your Mind" and no less than three versions of the title track. While this material is not among Bruce's best-known, it is among his best. Though the duplicate versions of some tracks can be tedious -- "Puzzles" is presented in three versions, there are two takes of "I'd Be Best Leaving You," there are both dubbed and undubbed versions of "Painted Girls and Wine" and "Blue Bayou" -- Puzzles nevertheless is an excellent way to become acquainted with a fine, underappreciated talent. (Tom Owens, Allmusic)
29 songs from RCA releases by rockabilly country western singer/songwriter who penned 'Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys' and other hits for Waylon, Willie, Johnny Cash.
By 1966, Ed Bruce had been an unsuccessful Sun rockabilly and had kicked around the Nashville scene for several years without much more success. Then he was signed to RCA and his incredible winning streak began with 'Walker's Woods' and his highly regarded country rock cover version of The Monkees' 'Last Train To Clarksville'. The 29 songs on this collection comprise all of Ed's RCA recordings from 1966 to 1968, including 'Blue Bayou', 'Painted Girls' And 'Wine', as well as a hit he wrote for Charlie Louvin, 'Lonesome Is Me', and 'The Price I Pay To Stay', later a hit for Jeannie C. Riley. (Record Runner)

LONNIE BROOKS - Wound Up Tight '86 @320
More energetic efforts with a decidedly rocked-up edge. Johnny Winter, long an ardent admirer of Brooks back to the Guitar Junior days, drops by with a passel of fiery guitar licks for the title track and "Got Lucky Last Night." (Bill Dahl, Allmusic)
"Wound Up Tight" returns us to the uncooked, hungrier, less expensive amplifier days where Lonnie was established, but not yet a statesman.

BONUS 4 OF 8
NICK LOWE - Pinker And Prouder Than Previous '88 @320
One of his more overlooked albums Pinker is almost as good as Party of One. Nothing earthshaking here, just a likable collection of originals and covers. It's the covers that really standout---"Love Gets Strange" would, in a better world, have been a big radio hit. And it's hard to believe Lowe DIDN'T write the leering "Big Big Love."

2. Crying in My Sleep
3. Big Half
4. Love Gets Strange
5. I Got the Love
6. Black Lincoln Continental
7. Cry It Out
8. Lovers Jamboree
9. Geisha Girl
10. Wishing Well
11. Big Big Love
