01 Gary Walker & The Rain - Album Number 1 [2009]
https://www7.zippyshare.com/v/oMZPX0lB/file.html

A legitimate release has appeared for this superb album. As unlikely as it may seem, The Walker Bros.' drummer Gary (who actually brought the group together) initiated a solo career that, as the excellent liner notes contained herein state, was every bit as notable as Scott Walker's, even if it was short-lived. Judging from the music here, it is a shame the band only lasted for one album and a pair of singles. The music is on a par with the best psychedelic and pop music of the time period. It was only due to record company indifference in the UK that prevented the band from going further. As The Walker Brothers were huge in Japan, Gary travelled there with his new band and the album was released in that country, but as the two singles the band did (both covers, and rather uninspired compared to the first-rate album tracks) flopped in the UK, the album wasn't released in England. What a shame, as one listen will blow your mind. Only a muddy-sounding bootleg of this album has appeared prior to this, but the sound here is crystal-clear and gorgeous, rendering the boot absolutely unnecessary. For lovers of psych/freakbeat, late 60s UK pop, "Album No. 1" by Gary Walker and The Rain (featuring Paul Crane from The Cryin' Shames of "Please Stay" fame and Joey Molland, future Badfinger guitarist) is a must-have.

02 Afterglow - Afterglow [1968]
https://www7.zippyshare.com/v/d6PRXzDi/file.html

This little known Oregon band recorded one album with Leo Kulka at San Francisco's Golden State Recorders (home of the Beau Brummels and numerous West Coast psych-rock groups), borrowing sounds from all points around the Bay Area. They dipped into San Francisco ballroom psych, sunshine harmony pop, folk rock, and even a Red Krayola-styled studio freakout. Organs, sunshiney guitar, harmonious backup vocals. This record is so good. The sound is often similar to Belle and Sebastian (I suspect they may have covered "Riding Home Again", or written a song that is an exact copy) other times it's Beatle-esque. Beautiful organ stuff going on (Farfisa?) similar to the Piper at The Gates of Dawn at times (much more bubblegummy song content though in comparison but not overall). They get spaced out on "Susie's gone" almost to a No-Wave groove 10 years too soon. It's kind of a short record, but you'll just want to listen to it again after the first time, so who cares. Anyone even looking at this casually should also check out the record label's site (where you can purchase this on vinyl LP). Sundazed Records is an amazing company dedicated to reissuing lost gems like this one. (Amazon)

03 Aerovons - Resurrection [1969]
https://www7.zippyshare.com/v/U3MtwUn6/file.html

The dozen songs that would have been on the Aerovons' album had it come out (though a couple of the songs did come out on a 1969 single) form the core of this release, Resurrection,the U.K. bonus edition also tacks on four bonus tracks. The Aerovons' unusual story -- a band from the American Midwest recording in Abbey Road in 1969, led and produced by their 17-year-old singer-songwriter -- might be the main reason there was interest in excavating these sessions, but this CD is not a mere curio. It's quite respectable late-'60s Beatles-style pop/rock, if a little green around the edges and pretty derivative. In fact, in a couple of spots it's downright imitative, with "Say Georgia" taking licks from "Oh! Darling," and "Resurrection" itself lifting from "Across the Universe." (Neither of those songs had yet been released by the Beatles at the time of the sessions, but the group heard them by virtue of working in Abbey Road.) Fortunately, those are the only blatant cops, though Beatles comparisons abound throughout, particularly in the Paul McCartney-esque piano-playing. Songs like "With Her" and "The Years" recall the acoustic outings of both John Lennon and Paul McCartney on The White Album, while "Bessie Goodheart" uses McCartney's more vaudevillian Sgt. Pepper-era outings as an obvious launching pad, and "Something of Yours" brings to mind "Michelle." To this list you could also add the very Lennon-esque echo on the vocal of "The Children." The Aerovons leaned more toward wistful and sadness-tinged moods than the Beatles did, though. One of the best tracks, "World of You," brings out that quality very well, recalling the better late-'60s orchestrated Bee Gees opuses. The bonus tracks include both sides of a non-LP 1969 single ("The Train," their poppiest number, which echoes both the Hollies and the Bee Gees), the outtake "Here" (very much like McCartney's piano ballads), and a demo of "World of You."

Monty, I second your comment about Gary Walker. You probably downloaded it already when I posted it here months (years?) ago. An excellent album.

Here are the comments added to my post (no mine, probably from some other blog or merchant):

Gary Walker (born Gary Leeds, 9 March 1942, Glendale, California) was the drummer, and vocalist with both The Standells and The Walker Brothers.

In 1967, after the Walker Brothers split, he founded Gary Walker And The Rain,

Gary Walker was by far the least prominent of the Walker Brothers; nominally the drummer, he apparently played on few if any of the group's records. When the Walkers split in 1967, he formed his own band, Gary Walker & the Rain, which consisted of Joey Molland (guitar and vocals – later of Badfinger), Charles "Paul" Crane (lead vocals, guitar, John Lawson (bass guitar) and naturally Gary on drums and vocals. The band played a far more guitar-oriented brand of pop/rock than his previous outfit. Also including future Badfinger guitarist Joey Molland, the group managed to release an album in Japan in 1968 before splitting in the late '60s. Leeds surfaced again as part of the mid-'70s Walker Brothers reunion.

The sole LP by Gary Walker And The Rain is a middling slice of late '60s British mod-pop/rock with mild psychedelic influences, like phasing and slight guitar distortion. Not at all similar to the balladeering of the Walker Brothers, Leeds deserved credit for trying to reinvent himself within a straight ahead rock group, although the results weren't that impressive.

Contractual problems prevented Gary from joining John and Scott in the studio during his time with the Walker Brothers. However, as band leader, Gary was the driving force in all of the Rain's recording sessions, contributing as songwriter, vocalist and drummer. Their debut single was a cover of the Classics IV song “Spooky”, released early in 1968. The single release was supported by a lengthy and very successful UK tour with The Kinks, The Herd and The Tremeloes. An extensive tour of Japan followed later that year during which the “Gary Walker And The Rain - Album No 1” was released. The LP was supported by the release of an EP and two singles, all consisting of songs taken from the album. None of the tracks were ever released other than in Japan, consequently the original Japanese LP is now extremely valuable and rare.

Under his sole name, Gary Walker also released a single that was a hit in the U.K., “Twinkie Lee”.

Culpepers Orchard - 1971 - Self Titled

2001 reissue: Progressive Line PL502, Australia, Unofficial Release.
New CD, just purchased from Germany!
@320 or FLAC. Includes art from the LP and the CD. Tagged

I had a crappy mp3 of this for many years, downloaded from a blog that is long gone. I liked this so much that I finally bought the CD. I usually don't employ a lot of hype on shares, but this album deserves all the hype I can muster.

Culpepers Orchard is from Denmark. It's all original, with complex compositions that go through many moods and changes of pace, even within individual songs. But it all fits together and flows. Their sound has been compared to Jethro Tull. That comparison is valid, but instead of a prominent flute, this album emphasizes guitar and uses a harpsichord here and there. This is much more of a head trip.

This walk in the woods takes you down the dark path to an unknown wonderland that is full of surprises. It opens with a short banjo piece that gives no warning of the coming musical storm. The ensuing whirlwind deposits the debris of different musical styles along the path, to be found by the listener. It calms down to softer and melodic pieces, haunting and disconcerting passages, and reassuring vocals before the storm returns at the end and takes everything away. It finishes with another short banjo piece, leaving you exhausted and wondering what happened.

Culpeper's later work took a hard turn towards a generic folk sound and is much different. They must have had some good acid or something when they made this record, and they couldn't get the lightning back in the bottle to use for the subsequent albums.

Would any of you generous TZ-ers have and be willing to share a pretty rare release by THE RAIN PARADE entitled "Perfume River?"


As an FYI to fans of the Paisley Underground movement, this week marks the release of a NEW collection by THE BANGLES, THE THREE O’CLOCK, THE DREAM SYNDICATE & THE RAIN PARADE called "3 x 4," where each of these groups performs one song by each of their musical cohorts (hence 3 x 4). Great idea, wonderful execution and entertaining band-written liner notes. These are 2018 recordings by bands from the 1980’s who mimicked music from the 1960’s. It was a limited Record Store Day release last November but it gets general release Friday in the US. What a cool concept. Highly recommmended.

A quick story about the Gram Parsons tribute show posted by Searnav today.

I was lucky enough to get one of about 75 tickets to the taping of the show (another 75 or so went to industry people). As we all waited in line for about 90 minutes on West 55th Street in NYC to get in, none of us knew that other artists would be appearing on this GP tribute show besides the announced Emmylou Harris. It was kind of thrilling to see the artists show up one-by-one at the 55th St stage entrance. I remember murmurs like "Hey, that's the Mavericks," "Wow, Sheryl Crow, I never knew she was that short," "There's Steve Earle" . . . There must have been a very small dressing room inside since the artists all congregated behind a cordoned off section on the other side of the studio door, hanging out, trading stories, using the masseuse they had, leaving to walk up and down the street. My favorite glimpse into the life of a famous musician came as big, tough Steve Earle paced back and forth by the line of ticket-holders with his phone to his ear absolutely exasperated because his wife (#3 wife, maybe?) would not answer his phonecall and "was going to kill me" because she was supposed to bring the truck in for repairs the next morning and he had accidentally taken the keys. He looked genuinely scared. Emmylou Harris, looking gorgeous without any stage make-up, was checking Chicago Cubs baseball scores on some kind of device, Chris Hillman was getting a massage at the table, and Raul Malo was laughing it up with anyone and everyone.

And, oh yeah, the show was pretty spectacular too.

If you see the video, that's my bald head in the shadows next to Bernie Leadon, bouncing up and down to the music.

Thank you zipper regarding the GBV set, I always wanted a

organized in such a way. Great to see some John Peel comps
shared here by the way. Talk to you soon I'm sure. Cheers!

The links for ALC 80 & 107 worked fine for me, I just couldn't open the files after downloaded...said the files were of unknown format or damaged. I had the same problem with Eltel's Twisted Wheel uploads...thanks anyways.

Can anyone help me with ALC #80 & 107. Thanks!!

Part 2 of
This 14-disc 2014 box of all the A- and B-sides released by Invictus, Hot Wax, and Music Merchant is called
Holland Dozier Holland -- The Complete 45s Collection: a handful of other writers and producers may be responsible
for individual tracks here and there but HDH were the ones with vision. They're the ones who wanted to drape the joyous,
passionate melodies of their Motown hits with fuzz guitars and candied strings

As their contracts with Motown came to a close in 1967 and 1968, the songwriting and production trio of Brian Holland,
Lamont Dozier, and Eddie Holland, Jr. decided to set up shop on their own.
CDs 1, 3, 5 and 7 contain A sides
CDs 2, 4, 6 and 8 contain B sides from the Invictus record label.
CDs 9 and 11 contain A sides and CDs 10 and 12 contain B sides from the Hot Wax (4) record label.
CD 13 tracks 1 to 14 contain A sides and CD 14 tracks 1 to 13 contain B sides from the Music Merchant record label.
CD 13 tracks 17 to 24 and CD 14 tracks 14 to 23 contain Holland-Dozier-Holland acetates, test pressings and remixes.

Audio samples from Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/Good-Uns-King-Biscuit-Boy/dp/B00002DD62#customerReviews
--------------------------
Amazon review:
"It's a great album. The songs are classics, the vocals are powerful, the arrangements are superb, all of the playing is ferocious, the band is tight, the production is wonderful. This is all blues and boogie music, played by white boys, and by the time this album was released it should have sounded like old hat, but somehow the enthusiasm of this crew makes it sound fresh and vital, like it was being played for the first time, by people who were playing for all they were worth. Not to be missed."

Jazzin' It Up! 157.6 MB
https://mega.nz/#!KR8DnCiJ!GVw6JnGiAJVlyYdgPsFzGtddL0OqaWD4acMw_QOanUM
Just for fun I put together this 1 hr & 15 min. collection of jazzed up pop/rock covers from the 60s & 70s. Note these are not my rips but are from my collection downloaded over the years, so various MP3 bit rates, but on the whole pretty acceptable.
Not surprising it contains a few Beatles covers, as those were first choice during those years. However it has 2 vinyl only tracks, including probably one of the first covers of King Crimson’s In The Court Of The Crimson King!
I’ve added a 3 page overview with original album cover art & more.

1. The Buddy Rich Big Band: Norwegian Wood
2. The Burbank Philharmonic: These Boots Are Made For Walking
3. Woody Herman Band: Aja
4. Doc Severinsen and the Now Generation Brass: The Court Of The Crimson King
5. Clarence Wheeler & The Enforcers: Hey Jude
6. Jimmy Smith: Ode To Billy Joe
7. Gerry Mulligan: Can't Buy Me Love
8. Gabor Szabo & Bob Thiele And His New Happy Times Orchestra: Eight Miles High
9. Herbie Mann: Hold On, I'm Coming
10. Eddie Cano & Nino Tempo: A Hard Day's Night
11. Count Basie: Come Together
12. Shirley Bassey: Light My Fire
13. Mongo Santamaria: Cold Sweat
14. Stanley Turrentine: Sunny
15. Ella Fitzgerald: Sunshine Of Your Love

Bernard Sumner - Chapter and Verse

Epub

BSCV.rar

https://www17.zippyshare.com/v/2yEhNpqV/file.html

Founding member and guitarist of Joy Division, lead singer of New Order and an integral part of the Manchester music scene since the late 1970s, Bernard Sumner has over the years been famously reluctant to speak out. Until now... In Chapter and Verse, Bernard tells the definitive story behind two of the most influential bands of all time.
The book includes a vivid and illuminating account of Bernard’s Salford childhood, the inception and demise of Joy Division, the band’s enormous critical and popular success, and the subsequent tragic death of Ian Curtis. Bernard describes the formation of New Order, and takes us behind the scenes at the birth of classics from both bands such as ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’, ‘Atmosphere’, ‘Blue Monday’ and ‘World In Motion’. And he gives his first-hand account of the ecstasy and the agony of the Haçienda days.
Sometimes moving, often hilarious and occasionally out of control, this is a tale populated by some of the most colourful and creative characters in music history, such as Ian Curtis, Tony Wilson, Rob Gretton and Martin Hannett. Some of these events have appeared before in film and book form. But now, for the first time, Bernard Sumner tells the whole story – the Haçienda, Joy Division and New Order – in one book, Chapter and Verse.
