"Twistin Rumble" Vol 3

16 cuts of SOULSTOMP, TWIST-PARTY LUNACY, GARAGE, R&B and CRAZINESS, 1960-1968!
Rough and raw grooves – way more than you might guess from the "twist" reference in the title! The sound here is more R&B than anything else – lots of heavy drums, honking sax, burning organ, and riffing guitar – but there's also some echoes of Latin rhythms, rockabilly raunch, and some 60s soul elements too – all percolating together wonderfully in a way that sounds like somebody blew the dust off a gritty pile of 45s, then filled them up to blast away in a decades-old jukebox in a tavern on the other side of the tracks! Plenty of rare bits here.
