Sacred Miracle Cave - Liquid In Me

I feel like i'm the only person in the world who likes this band....? Heavy, doomy, dark noisy and psychedelic. What's NOT to like?

I wish i could have seen them live back in the day, i bet they ruled live.

Orange Alabaster Mushroom - The Slug / Ethel Tripped A Mean Gloss

I never heard of the "Orange Alabaster Mushroom" before last week. I stumbled upon it in my endless search for music via the interwebs. I liked what i heard, found a copy of this 7 inch and jumped on it. Here is what the inter webs say about the "group":

Ontario's answer to the Bevis Frond, the Orange Alabaster Mushroom is bedroom D.I.Y. auteur Greg Watson, whose one-man band reproductions of classic circa-1967 psych-pop are so dead-on perfect in every detail that one could play this collection of 1991-1998 recordings for any fan of Nuggets-era obscurities and they'd think it was authentic circa 1967 psych-pop.

D.F.X. - No Frills

Anybody know anything about this band D.F.X.? From Netcong N.J.? Sounds pretty good. A little glamish / party metal, a little early Motley Crue-ish. So i suspect they are a bit poser-ish, but since this never came with a picture sleeve? and i can't see what they look like, i'm trying not to pass too much judgement! I like the EP but "She Likes To Rock" sounds like lame ass Poison or some other 80's pussy LA Hair bullshit. The Guitar player has some good moves and the singer sounds good sans a few Vince Neil squeals here and there.

Snow - Song Of The Sirens

A few weeks ago I posted a 45 by Snow here: This is an album cut from the self titled album on E pic records from 1968. This is a pretty heavy, dare i say doom-ish track for 1968. Maybe proto-doom? I mean Black Sabbath is a few years away and I can't think go too many bands that were playing this slow and doom like. Maybe Iron Butterfly or Blue Cheer, but at any rate this is a cool heavy track on an otherwise fairly light affair, that only hints at psych rock here and there, mostly playing the pop angle.

Snow - Song Of The Sirens

Hush - Magic Touch

Hmmmmm... Not sure what to make of this one. It wants to rock but falls a bit short. They should have turned up that fuzz track in the background and mixed down that clean guitar that is way up front. There is a certain ineptitude that i admire and the guitar player really tries hard for that solo section and the breakdown where it's just the guitar noodle. Even the drum solo section sounds like Fred Flintstone falling down a flight of stairs, yet i still like it somehow....

Hush - Magic Touch

The Waters - Mother Samwell

Dueling fuzz guitars start out this jam and pretty much the fuzz just keeps coming throughout. Throw in some washed out phaser over the whole vibe and you got a killer heavy garage psych rock jam. Released in January 1969 on the Delcrest label, the group was from Louisville, KY. Looks like this was the bands only release.?

The Waters - Mother Samwell

Bungi - Numbers

We came here to turn you one, so we're gonna sing our song!

Total bone head rocker with no real redeeming value but to make you shake your ass and chug your tall boys.

Party the fuck on!

Bungi - Numberi

SRC - My Fortune's Coming True

A non album cut by SRC (The Scot Richard Case) out of Detroit. This is from 1970. This may not be a top SRC cut but not being on any of the albums makes the 45 the only place you can hear it. A Bluesy rock tune with some semi fuzzy guitars. Meh.... I'd rather hear "Black Sheep" or "No Secret Destination" but the weirdo collector in me had to have it for the "collection".... Enjoy, or not....

SRC - My Fortune's Coming True

The Guided Tour - 50 BC Man

Another little known garage psych tune by "The Guided Tour". Info is scant. Not a ripper but a good tune with some psych vibes and organ. A little guitar break in the middle. Looks like this was from 1970 and out of Minnesota, other than that i just don't know....

Jiri Schelinger - Metro, Dobry Den (A National Acrobat) - Podj (Heart Of Gold)

Pretty wild Czechoslovakian cover songs from Black Sabbath & Neil Young from 1975 by Jiri Schelinger.

Snow - Caterpillar

A little pop psych nugget from 1968 by Snow. Sounds like these guys must have heard "Sgt. Peppers" and "Pipers At The Gates Of Dawn" smoked some weed and took it from there. There's a cool little fuzzy guitar riff sort of hidden in the back that i wish was blazing instead of hiding, but i hear it.

Snow - Caterillar

The Werks - I Got The Feeling

Another little known heavy rock 45. Sort of like a heavy Bloodrock or Vanilla Fudge. Great fuzzy guitar riff and a killer wha wha solo and organ spiced throughout. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

The Werks - I Got The Feeling

Flying - Evil

Here is another little known (Unknown?) private press 45 that is "Flying" under the radar. (see what i did there?) Most likely from the 80's but info is scant. Heavy, Buzzy, Fuzzy guitar with a slightly "Evil" sound (see what i did there?!?) Anyone with any 411 please drop it. Until the next time, enjoy.

Flying - Evil

Trix - Official Business

I bought this 45 being told it was from the 70's but I don't think that is correct? This has a early 80's party metal vibe to me but I could me mistaken? Anyone have any info on the group or 45?
I really dig the really fuzzy guitars and solos...

Trix - Official Business

The What - The Devils Game

Well, here is something i rarely ever do... Pay too much for a record. See, this 45 has been on my want list for a long while and when one came up on eBay a little while ago i sort of went crazy. I had numerous bids on several other 45's and when i pretty much lost them all i went a little overboard on this one because i was pissed and swore i wasn't going to let this get away. So here it is, a record i payed way to much for.... Some serious proto metal thud rock that sort of sounds a bit like Poobah. Heavy riff & fuzzy phased out solo... Enjoy, I'm gonna go cry...

The What - The Devils Game

Christian Lee - Magic Wand / Why Can't We All Be Free

Weird little records. A soft folky psych tune on the A side that sorta sounds like Donovan or Nick Drake and a weird play on some old pre-war blues on the flip, that sounds like something Patrick Sky would do...

The Beautiful Daze - Part 1 & Part 2

Comped a million times. As blown out and fuzzy as it gets. It never gets old.

The Kynd - Mr. America / Clouds

Fuzzy guitar riff rock ala Blue Cheer and a light trippy dippy B side. Produced by Sid Kleiner's House Of Guitars Califon NJ...

Spider Kelly - Infatuation

I had a complete and total computer failure after 10 years of filling it up with music and pictures and pretty much lost everything. Fresh start i guess. Still way bummed out but the wife bought me an early 50th birthday present. Yeah, I will be fucking 50 this year. Fuck me.... I NEVER thought i'd live this long but i am glad i did. So here is the 1st post on the new computer. A 45 i just picked up online. I knew nothing about this and had never seen it, but how can you go wrong with a dude named "Spider Kelly" and a song called "Infatuation" on "Criminal Records"? Don't know the year and anything else really. It's a good thud / bone head rocker, which is where my head is at these daze.... Enjoy!

Spider Kelly - Infatuation

Clockwork - Cybernaut / Mean Lady

A great heavy prog instrumental on the A side which for my money ends to soon and abrupt. Seems like they start start really cooking and then they were like "shit that's all that is going to fit on the 45!" and end the jam suddenly. Too bad really, because like most proggy goodness i could listen to these stoners ramble semi aimlessly for hours. Side B is more of a crunchy rocker with a great fuzzed out solo. Reminds me of maybe Stepson or Kin Ping Meh a bit. Ace 45.

Dynamite Butch - Freedom Song

I'm back!

Hitting you with a heavy riff rocker with a killer guitar solo and some weird/wild synth action from Dynamite Butch circa 1974.

Thanks to the wife for fixing my broken shit!
