"Ripples" - Vol 3 - Autumn Almanac (The British Soft Rock Sound)

From Massachusetts to Muswell Hill. The 60s Soft Rock and Folk Baroque sounds of the UK. 30 British Autumn Pop gems remastered.
This series by Castle Music and Sequel Records presents 8 volumes of 60's West Coast Harmony Sound as heard in the UK. The series never runs out of steam offering up some true UK gems, some well know artists and many generally obscure/rare British tracks. A fabulous mixture of Psychedelic Rock, Folk Rock, Sunshine Pop, Pop Rock, Vocal, Ballad, Beat, Freakbeat, Soul, Soft Rock, Surf, and Psychedelic Pop and Folk Baroque sounds. The first 6 CD's have 30 tracks each of generally obscure 60's British pop in a clean, bright, often cloying style with lots of cheerful vocal harmonies. Lots of gems here, a very solid listen all the way through. Excellent collection if you like 60's pop with an edge then this is for you. The last two discs follow the same pattern but only have 29 tracks each. - Butterboy
