It may be possible that, until this release, these three names no longer sound familiar to lovers of South American underground music, but for any fan of good Venezuelan hard psych rock of the '60s and '70s, Bacro, Tsee Mud, and LSD are really special, well-known bands. Besides the other great album from Venezuela, Ladies WC, this release is as good and as important. The band only released a couple of singles and played a lot of great live concerts. These bands, with José Romero on guitar, changed names from LSD to Tsee Mud and to Bacro. In-between those bands, José lived in the USA and was part of The Del-Vikings, who played a concert at Madison Square Garden. José went back to Venezuela and continued playing with Bacro. All the tracks presented on this album here are extra-strong and heavy psychedelic with amazing fuzz guitar, vocals and lots of acid moves. A really wild album, all the way.

Get Dreamy is perhaps the most fantastic and unique underground album from Scandinavia. Recorded in 1967, it was the LP with legendary guitarist Terje Rypdal after the two albums he made with The Vanguards. A year later Terje recorded his first solo album also for Polydor. Get Dreamy has great original songs full of wild fuzz guitar, swirling Hammond organ, sound effects, and strong vocals. The musical influences could be Cream and Jimi Hendrix, with the lyrical touch of Procol Harum. All songs very well-produced and recorded in Stockholm. Dream started straight away with a full album, which was not common in the musical world in 1967 -- most bands produced singles first. With a lot of enthusiastic help from Norway, including Terje Rypdal, plus the cooperation of many photographers, we are happy to put this album out with a big poster insert including a great band story and many, many unseen photos. The album was mastered 24-bit direct from the original master tapes. So the sound is really good and you can hear it in full stereo.

There are not many underground folk albums Shadoks are keen on putting out. Steve Atkinson's Small Boats was one the label loved immediately. Steve was just not easy to find. So, with some help from a student (Steve was a teacher) Shadoks were able to locate him. If you think the early Mick Stevens albums are cool, Tony Caro And John is a killer group, and you love the tradition of British underground folk music, you will really like this album. Very well composed electric and acoustic songs with beautiful vocals, guitar, violin, recorder, cello, bass, chimes, and clarinet, this album is a little masterpiece. Recorded between 1980 and 1981. Steve said: "My musical education came from the folk clubs of Bedfordshire, Fairport Convention, John Peel, West Coast bands like Love, Jefferson Airplane, and The Doors, punk, The Beach Boys, and of course The Beatles." A very beautiful album which deserves a good spot as a shiny star in the folk music universe.

500 numbered copies on 180 gram vinyl. Comes with a two page insert. "Rain, Norway's most well kept secret. But not anymore. After the first release of the Rain album Norsk Suite we all know how good this band sounds. Very much like Frank Zappa and The Mothers, Rain's complex compositions are based on the skills of modern classic composers such as Varèse and Strawinsky. As a strong influence they've mentioned Vanilla Fudge. Rain was Carl Jørgen Kiønig on drums, percussuion , Knut Heljar Hagen on organ, synthesizers, and vocals, and Åsmund Feidje on guitar and vocals. This album Make the Day Break was recorded live in a studio in 1974. After Norsk Suite, the music of this album takes you a step further. Four more years developing musical skills, great composition sense, and strong instrumental abilities. The title song of the album is just superb, the whole album simply stunning. We wish we had more recordings of this great band. But that is all there is. A big surprise they have never been released before. We love it and the music scene in Norway can be proud of this recording."

400 numbered copies on 180 gram vinyl. Comes in a heavy red-velvet sleeve with engraved artwork and insert. "Local New Jersey demo release (200 made), beyond rare fantastic concept psych beauty, maybe five or six known copies; three girls, one guy. They tried to get attention from big labels but this never happened. They wanted him to sound like Blood Sweat & Tears. But this was not Greg's idea of music. The music has everything you need, like a wild version of early Moby Grape combined with New Dawn and C.A. Quintet, sometimes dreamy sometimes totally wild underground-psych, with female vocals and splattering leads, Titanic horns and distorted guitars. Sweet tunes turn into dark psych power. Totally stoned. A previous Little Indian release, but this time with insert, three bonus tracks, and many pictures."

500 numbered copies on 180 gram vinyl. Comes with a four page insert. "The time is anytime for this love story. A ship is dipping trough the sparkling blue sea, sitting on deck are Tristan and Ysolde. We have never seen or heard an album like this before. The music is stunning, the original package was outstanding, the whole presentation just beautiful. I am sure this album Tristan was not produced to sell. It came in a hand-laminated 10" tape box, a booklet with all the lyrics, and two 10 inch hand-cut acetates. The concept of the rock opera Tristan reminds me a lot of the two 12" acetates of Shuttah - The Image Maker Part 1+2. I am sure both albums were produced in an excellent studio with pro-musicians to help seal the deal for a release on a big label. So some promo guys out there should have some original copies. The music is electric folk with a progressive touch, much better than most albums we have heard from Britain. Male and female vocals, a wide range of instruments, great percussion and first class guitar, plus organ parts. Some songs are more acoustic, some electric. A well balanced mixture of an underground concept album which beats most other UK albums of the same kind. This album is a pure surprise. We just love it."

Numbered limited edition of 500; 180 gram pressing housed in a heavy gatefold sleeve with insert. "This rare and sophisticated heavy rock album was released in a limited run of 500 copies by Sonet in Denmark. Heavy organ and guitars, with rough English vocals, great songs, very well composed and performed with a bluesy feel and influenced by the 'Vertigo' UK sound with a great mix of heavy guitar and hammond organ. Only a very few albums from Scandinavia are produced that well, recorded at Rosenberg Studios, Copenhagen. One of the best underground albums from Scandinavia and among Moses, Culpeper's Orchard and Terje, Jesper & Joachim the top wanted album from Denmark. We are releasing this album with 2 long bonus tracks."

Numbered edition of 500 copies; 180 gram pressing housed in a heavy sleeve with insert "Farm recorded this wonderful album in 1971 in Southern Illinois, USA and the band is: Del Herbert - guitars, Gary Gordon - guitars & vocals, Jim Elwyn - bass & vocals, Steve Evanchik - percussion & harp, Roger Greenwalt - organ & piano, Mike Young - drums. Of cause there are many good albums from that time who need to be released again, but this album really stands out. We would vote this album by FARM as one of the best US releases on our label right next to jewels like BRIGADE (also from 1971). Killer dual fuzz guitar in every track, fantastic underground rock songs with an Allman Brothers vibe and Canned Heat boogie, speed driven rhythm, with music roots in west coast & blues rock and guitar-propelled numbers ála Santana."

Limited edition of 500; 180 gram vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with 12-page insert. "Before Los Speakers from Columbia recorded this album in 1968 they have already released 4 other albums for a major label. This final album (In The Wonderful World Of Ingeson which was the name of the recording studio) was recorded and produced entirely by the band with no restrictions from major label producers. What they have produced in 1968 was a musical statement and a piece of art...going in the same direction as early Mothers Of Invention but with a sweeter musical touch of band like Kissing Spell / Embrujo to it. This masterpiece is loaded with psychedelic ideas, stoned effects, backwards loops, fuzz guitar, Latin beat's, great vocals and amazing lyrics. Perhaps the first Os Mutantes album might suit this direction a bit as well. We have never heard an album like this before. Here we have the rare stereo version with 12 page LP size book and gatefold sleeve. A psychedelic masterpiece and one of the best albums from Latin Americana. If you want to have your album perfect as the original pressing, attach a tiny piece of chewing gum inside the gatefold top left corner (looked like an acid trip on the original cover) and spray it with rose perfume, which they did as well."

Shadoks has tried for a long time to release this album, since their releases from Chile (Embrujo, Kissing Spell, Blobs, Sacros, and others) are incomplete without this beauty from 1968. This is the last of four albums Beat 4 recorded (plus a later soundtrack) and it's their most sophisticated LP. On it, they could create their own sounds and ideas for the first time without RCA telling them what to do. Beat 4 was one of the most popular bands in Chile, who created strong albums as good and as successful as The Beatles. Habi Una Vez... (trans. "Once Upon a Time") was influenced by member Willy Benitez' theater experience after a long trip to the south of Chile (Patagonia). The album has a strong emotional touch and it is very well-composed and played (as most other releases from Chile). If you prefer the sound of Blops, Embrujo and Kissing Spell over hard psych from Mexico, you will love this one very much. Transparent, fluid, wide open spaces, emotionally composed, with poetic lyrics and lots of humor.
