30 more Dixie recordings mostly done in a boppin' hillbilly vein. There's enough here to recommend it to the hardcore hillbilly fans. Connie Dycus (a guy) is pretty good on the honky tonker Lying All The Time and the witty I Could Shoot Myself (If I Wasn't Afraid Of A Gun) isn't bad either. Bill & Paul and the Bluegrass Travelers are back for an encore with Change Of Heart and a breakneck instrumental Cumberland Valley Special . Wrangler is a good guitar-led instrumental by Eddie Reynolds. Bill Goodwin & the Western Ramblers sound alright on the jaunty Your Lying Ways . Jimmy Blakley probably comes up with the best one here on Holiday For Love . Mel Price's Until is A-OK and Tommy Nelson contributes a very catchy country pop tune, Like Let's Get Out . Most of the rest are pretty good as well. (AE, Roots & Rhythm)

Lend Us A Quid; The Tanked-Up, Dressed Down, Dirty-Ass R&B Side Of Pub Rock (WAX CD 004)
The concept here is the “Dirty R&B” side of the idiom. That means no Brinsleys, no Ace, and no Bees Make Honey. Nothing against these bands of course, Brinsleys in fact are one of my favorite combos of the era but this shit here’s about raw uncompromised energy! I wanted the punk forefathers, the ones that teach the Pistols and their generation who Music Machine was and where this evil force called rock & roll was born or/and by whom?! (Mihaleez)

The Masonics - Obermann Rides Again (2017)
A new album of muscular British rock 'n' roll from the celebrated beat power trio. 'Obermann Rides Again' comes trampling merrily over a swathe of garage rock pretenders, with the group's vintage instruments and their vintage owners pushed well past breaking-point to bring you 14 slices of raw and tender songsmithery.
Led by the gruffly charming Mickey Hampshire, whose long songwriting career stretches back to Medway trash legends The Milkshakes, and ably assisted by fellow ex-Milkshake and renowned drum wizard Bruce Brand and top Scotch bass thumper John Gibbs, the Masonics have built their reputation on live shows across Europe and the UK that delight teen twisters and pop purists alike. (Shindig)
Masters of the Medway Beat, The Masonics, are back with another foot-stomping, fist pounding record to delight the garage heads among us. Nathan Whittle checks it out.
On their new record, Obermann Rides Again, underground garage legends The Masonics power through 14 tracks of pure stripped back rock & roll bliss with an exuberant energy that would put bands half their age to shame. They stir up an aural riot right from the start with opening couplet I Ain’t Hurting For You and Don’t Torment Me, which kick off the shake and roll vibe that fits and starts throughout and sets out a lyrical stall for the rest of the record. Long have they been with us and long may they continue to thrive, shake, rattle and jive.(Louder Than War)
1. I Ain't Hurting For You 02:46
2. Don't Torment Me 03:12

United Travel Service - Wind and Stone (1966-1970, 2010)
Dateline 1966 – the Pacific North West of the USA – a hotbed for numerous local and regional bands following the tradition of the
renowned North West Fratrock of the Kingsmen or the uncompromising Rock & Roll of The Sonics and Wailers. Not so the United Travel Service. They were sadly overlooked at the time but are now revered for their two brilliant, killer folkadelic 45 releases “Wind And Stone” b/w “Drummer Of Your Mind” and “Gypsy Eyes” b/w “Echo Of You”. The UTS were mainly influenced by the San Francisco scene, Garage Rock and the Byrds. Their high quality repertoire written by guitarist Ben Hoff and produced by New Tweedy Brothers producer Rick Keefer would have made a classic local psychedelic album if released back then. But it was not to be. Break-A-Way presents for the first time, a collection of the band’s rare 45s, along with four unreleased studio recordings, five home demos and an additional excellent 2009 re-recording of an old track capturing again the old magic and authenticity of the group. The CD comes with a 12 page booklet including a detailed history of the band with photos from the member’s scrapbooks. At last, here is the long overdue legacy of one of the Northwest’s finest psychedelic bands. (Ugly Things)
To my ears the United Travel Service compilation (they never had a proper album release back in the day), is the greatest psychedelic music recorded in the City of Roses (Portland, Oregon) during that era. The songs are great. A folk-rock type of sound, but still very trippy. (Portland Weekly)

Talk To The Rain (Mainstream Soul Survey 2007)
A veteran of Savoy, Mercury and EmArcy, producer Bob Shad founded his own independent imprint Mainstream Records in late 1963. Though largely known for a series of cult-classic jazz fusion sessions issued during the early half of the '70s, the label also released its share of lush, mellow soul, with occasional forays into harder-edged, funkier material. Talk to the Rain, one of several Mainstream retrospectives compiled by Japan's P-Vine imprint, spotlights the label's harmony soul groups, emphasizing the mid-tempo, sumptuously romantic sound that was a Mainstream hallmark. The majority of these performances were confined exclusively to scarce singles, and many make their CD debut. Highlights include the Dramatics' "I Feel It," Spectrum's "Let's Fall in Love" and Spring's title cut. (Jason Ankeny, Allmusic)

Pink Floyd - The Shape of Questions To Heaven (1968, Reimagined 2017)
Pink Floyd – The Shape of Questions to Heaven
(a soniclovenoize re-imagining)
March 2017 UPGRADE
Side A:
1. Vegetable Man
2. Apples and Oranges
3. Remember A Day
4. a) Golden Hair
b) Set The Controls For The Heart of The Sun
5. In The Beechwoods
Side B:
6. John Latham
7. Paintbox
8. Scream Thy Last Scream
9. Jugband Blues
Although I said I wouldn’t, the material spontaneously struck me one day recently and I was motivated to upgrade this original re-imagining from four years ago, which postulates “What if Syd Barrett hadn’t been fired from Pink Floyd?” The Shape of Questions to Heaven is the theoretical 1968 follow up to 1967’s The Piper At The Gates of Dawn, and culls material from Pink Floyd’s A Saucerful of Secrets sessions and Syd Barrett’s The Madcap Laughs sessions to create a second album of Syd Barrett-led Pink Floyd, an album that most certainly never was.
The updates to this March 2017 edition are:
• Revised tracklist that focuses more on actual Syd-led Pink Floyd sessions and less reliant on Syd’s solo work without the rest of the band—a true 2nd Pink Floyd album with Syd Barrett
• “Late Night”, “Lanky Part One” and “Clowns and Jugglers” are dropped from the tracklist and replaced by “In The Beechwoods” and “John Latham” sourced from The Early Years boxset.
• More recent (and in my opinion) superior sources are used, including the 2011 remaster of A Saucerful of Secrets and the 2015 remaster of The Madcap Laughs

gyro1966,
thanks a lot for The Masonics - Obermann Rides Again. This makes my day, great!
@ gyro1966
thanks for the new Masonics
RYP - Always happy to make your day! Enjoy!
The blogger known as Buzz Baby Jesus did something similar to Soniclovenoize by reimagining what "A Saucerful Of Secrets" might have sounded like if Syd Barrett hadn't left the band during the recording sessions. There is some overlap between the two comps. This one was posted on Buzz Baby Jesus' excellent blog nowthatswhaticallbullshit.com. Gyro1966 might have retagged and reposted this, as tagging isn't B.B. Jesus' forte.

Wow what a fantastic selection Gyro, thanks for all of these!
Obermann!!
Thanks for the Syd-Floyd
I can't think of a better "what-if" than imagining Syd Barrett's 2nd album with Pink Floyd. Although I love the group, I never got over Barrett's departure from the band. It isn't every day an album like "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" enters your life. and commandeers your consciousness. No wonder "Jugband Blues" concluded "A Saucerful of Secret." It was a farewell. By the way, was a mono of this album ever released? Having mono and stereo versions of the first album doubles the pleasure, triples the fun. In any case, thanks for dissolving the line between reality and fantasy so deliciously.
Thanx Gyro For Collector & Also Lend Us A Quid

Thanks for "Talk To The Rain " Gyro.

Hi, Gyro! I thought I remembered you had retagged a couple of the Buzz Baby Jesus comps. Thanks for reposting it. Lend Us A Quid was also a great share today!
Lend Us A Quid has had close to 1000 DL in a couple days - yet only one comment! It's obviously very popular in this bonus section.
