The Seeds ... singles A's and B's 1965-1970 anthology




The Seeds' definitive anthology of their entire run of singles from 1965 to 1970, a collection that includes some of the band's best-known material including Can't Seem To Make You Mine, Mr.Farmer and their lone Top 40 hit, the garage rock touchstone that is Pushin' Too Hard.

Singles such as Satisfy You, The Wind Blows Your Hair and Bad Part Of Town have become as equally renowned in the years since, and Seeds' B-sides are almost as popular - tracks such as Out of the Question, The Other Place and Wild Blood are all fan favorites.

This exhaustive 24 track collection is drawn from the original singles masters, which in most cases have never been available since their first issue; most cuts feature unique mixes and different edits.

After leaving the GNP Crescendo label in 1969, the Seeds moved to MGM for two swansong 45's, both included here, never before on CD. Bonus tracks are Excuse Excuse with a different vocal, issued on a French EP, and the original, unedited version of Pushin' Too Hard.

Psychedelia At Abbey Road....1965 to 1969...various artists



22 Tracks...The Major and the Minor
A Journey Through the Vaults

This is a phantasmagorical collection of 60's pyschedelic rock and pop. Either a great way to introduce yourself to a fascinating era in music, or an excellent way to get a hold of some hard to find tracks. Of interest also to prog-rock fans (prog-rock's roots lie in psychedelia) for the tracks by Tomorrow (featuring a 17-year old Steve Howe on guitar before he joined up with Yes) and "Kites" by Simon Dupree and the Big Sound, a precursor to the band Gentle Giant.


From Donovan's self-confident "Sunshine Superman", to Syd Barrett's moody, suitably trippy "Golden Hair", this is a fine collection of British psychedelia. Many of the people here would go on to some distinction including the N'betweens, who would become Slade. A really great anthology including a handful of absolute must-haves....especially the amazing "Circus With A Female Clown" by The Fingers and "We Are The Moles, Part 1" by The Moles.

  2. My White Bicycle-Tomorrow
  3. Delighted To See You-The N'Betweens

Chuck Berry Rock & Roll Music - Any Old Way You Choose It - The Complete Studio Recordings Plus...! Deluxe 16-CD boxed set


Deluxe 16-CD boxed set from Bear Family;..with 2 hardcover books (356 total pages) in a cloth bound LP-sized slipcase. 396 tracks, for a total playing time of 21 hours and 11 minutes!

                                                            


''If you tried to give rock and roll another name, you might call it 'Chuck Berry.''' (John Lennon)

Since their launch in 1975, the Bear Family have wanted to honor Chuck Berry. There have been endless Chuck Berry compilations - more than anyone could possibly tabulate, but they wanted to do the ultimate Chuck Berry compilation, containing:
  • Every single and LP track, starting with a rare pre-Chess single with Joe Alexander from 1954!
  • All the celebrated and legendary Chess singles and album cuts from 1955 to 1966 and from 1969 to 1974.
  • All the Mercury recordings, and the Atco album. Every surviving alternate take as well.
  • Classic Live Recordings from 1956 to 1972.
  • Exclusive introduction by Sir Paul McCartney.
But wait,there's more! Expatriate British photographer Bill Greensmith lives in St. Louis and a few years back he found the photo archive of Chuck Berry's uncle, Harry Davis. Included are many previously unseen images of Chuck performing in St. Louis and hanging out with friends and family. In these images, Chuck is unguarded and relaxed. We also see him performing at blues nightspots in and around St. Louis before he was famous. These photos, included with this set in a high quality 104-page hardbound book, will open your eyes to Chuck Berry as you've never seen him.

Plus, there's a second 252-page hardbound book with a definitive essay from Chuck's biographer, Bruce Pegg, additional texts by Mike Snow and Roger Fairhurst, a comprehensive discography by Fred Rothwell, hundreds of published and unpublished photos, including several images made by respected French photographer Jean-Marie Perrier in 1964.

In other words, everything you want by Chuck Berry in one place! The last word on the first name in Rock 'n' Roll.
