Recognized as one of the truly great comps of all time, this 1979 selection of '60s U.S. hard guitar-psych, compiled by the owner of a record shop in Berlin, has often been reissued on CD with the wrong tracklisting and non-existent liner notes. Originally released on LP, only 77 copies were pressed and apart from a few that were given to friends and family, the remaining records were only sold through the compiler's shop or shamelessly bootlegged. The Past & Present label is pleased to make this important compilation available again as a deluxe 180 gram vinyl limited edition. Acid Dreams proved that punk rock was not a new thing; kids had adopted the same snotty attitude in the mid-to-late '60s. The opening track, White Light's "William," sets the standard for what's to come: a compulsive, classic, hard guitar-psych 45 rocker and 17 more psych diamonds follow in its wake. A true gem mined and polished by Past & Present. Hand-numbered limited edition, containing a full-color insert with the original CD liner notes. Digitally-remastered. Artists include: White Light, Caretakers Of Deception, Outcasts, Music Machine, Mystic Tide, Stereo Shoestrings, Velvet Illusions, Unrelated Segments, Beautiful Daze, Painted Faces, Teddy & His Patches, Vejtables, Faine Jade, Balloon Farm, Minds Eye, Zakary Thaks, and Remaining Few.
