Heatwave-Ruby Rats

Not sure where this cover of Heatwave is from (Germany or France is my guess) or who Ruby Rats were but I love the vocals and reedy organ blasting through it.

Optical Sound+Love At Psychedelic Velocity-The Human Expression

Couple of great tracks from 'The Human Expression'. I think these can be found on the various nuggets compilations which you all should have,pretty essential if you like this kind of stuff.

Particularly love 'Optical Sound', could listen to that all day...

Fallin'+Can't Seem To Make You Mine-The Seeds

A couple of tracks from the inimitable 60's LA band The Seeds. Fallin' is a classic repetitive hypnotic blast from their album 'Future' whilst 'Can't Seem To Make you Mine' is a classic repetitive hypnotic blast fresh from use in a deodorant commercial. Both full of Seedy goodness.

Much has been said of The Seeds influence on The Doors sounds and I think that comes through here...enjoy!

The Trip-Kim Fowley

Moving on/off from Halloween and into a world of psych/garage,.some of my favourites alongside oddities and rarities as well as some classics I suppose...So, we're starting here, appropriately enough with Mr Kim Fowley, his second post on here ...and it's time to take 'The Trip'.

The Witch-The Sonics

Second post on here from The Sonics. This time with the rather more seasonal 'The Witch'.

Spooky or misogynistic. You decide? The line 'she's going to make you itch', suggest's the latter...

Evil Hoodoo-The Seeds

Legendary Seeds vocalist Sky Sunlight Saxon died aged 71(maybe?) on 25th june,2009...I think he best summed up this 'happening' himself:

“Well, I think you could retire when you die. I don't, however, believe in death, so I guess I will retire when I leave my body. But I plan to continue writing and performing in heaven” Sky Sunlight Saxon March 2009

Go Go Gorilla-The Shondells

Going to be putting up a few 'monkey' related tracks over the coming days, so to get in the swing (see what I did there?) here's 'Go Go Gorilla' by the Shondells (what no Tommy James?)...and no, I don't really want all the Gorilla's to 'go'...I want them to 'GO!'...
