| VA: - We're Gonna Change The World ! High-Definition 180 gram GOLD Vinyl LP During the peak years of the ’60s garage band wave, Pete Wright was one of the nation’s top independent record promotion men. His records were not only hits on Chicago’s crucially important WLS but also in small markets throughout the Midwest. Whether in the Windy City or in these smaller outposts, he was tipped off to tons of untapped local talent. So much so that launching a record label was the next logical step. Thus was born Quill Records, a short-lived but supremely cool label heavily indebted to the garage band sound. This definitive overview collects only the most rockin’ sides from the label; from the Malibu’s who manage to outdo their idols the Animals, at least in pure unbridled energy, to the Skunks who on their overdriven, fuzzed-out cover of “Do the Duck” could be mistaken for a UK mod/freakbeat act. And that’s just for starters in a set of teen rave-ups from the likes of the Delights, the Commons, Ltd., Chances R, the Riddles and more. If the appearance of the Don Caron Orchestra in the track listing causes serious head scratching amongst the more discerning of you garage connoisseurs, well, we couldn’t help ourselves. Their “Hot Pastrami” may be the most scorching sax ’n’ reverb instrumental you hear all year. This set also includes rare photos, label scans and extensive liner notes (with interviews from both Pete Wright and many of the bands). |

| VA: - You Heard Them Here First - Rock's Icons Before They Were Fa Everyone has to start somewhere, even famous rock stars. Not many of them achieved stardom with their first record. That’s the theme of “You Heard Them Here First”, a collection of two-dozen cuts by big name acts, all recorded before anyone knew them from Adam. Take Arthur Lee, wigged-out lynchpin of the band Love, who in his early dues-paying days briefly fronted an obscure instrumental combo. The MGs were a big noise in Memphis, but few folk in Los Angeles got to hear the L.A.G.s. Now’s your chance. Or Marty Balin, who, long before Jefferson Airplane took off, tried his hand at teen idol-dom, seemingly unaware the world already had a Gene Pitney, a Ricky Nelson and a Bobby Vee. Who knew? Everyone knows the Righteous Brothers, but not many are familiar with Bill Medley’s previous group the Paramours, blue-eyed Coasters clones extraordinaire. Motown kyboshed the Mynah Byrds’ chances of stardom by cancelling the release of their single; no one knew who Neil Young and Rick James were at the time. Young’s later back-up band Crazy Horse recorded in earlier guises too, amongst them the Rockets, while the Beefeaters osmosed into the Byrds, Ry Cooder and Taj Mahal started out in an unknown group named the Rising Sons and Gram Parsons cut his teeth in the International Submarine Band. Bob Dylan knew a good thing when he heard it and he heard it in Levon & the Hawks, who teamed up with him and changed their name to the Band. The Pigeons found few takers until they slowed things down and re-launched themselves as Vanilla Fudge. Hear all these bands here. Danny Lee, anyone? We know him now as genius songwriter Dan Penn. What about Link Cromwell? Where would Patti Smith be without Lenny Kaye? How does Mark Robinson grab you? Just a quick listen is all it takes to identify the unmistakeable bass voice of Lee Hazlewood. Nilsson’s first chart record dates from 1969, but he’d been scratching around in the music biz for years by then, writing songs for the Ronettes, singing demos for Little Richard and recording singles under pseudonyms like Bo Pete. Collectors will tell you it’s invariably the records made by well-known artists before they were famous that are the hardest to find and the most expensive to buy. Expect to fork out over £500 for an original copy of ‘Liza Jane’ by Davie Jones with the King Bees, the fabled first single released by the lad who grew up to David Bowie, for example. By purchasing this CD, you save yourself a small fortune and get pre-fame recordings by Lou Reed, Joe Cocker, Cher, Mike Nesmith, Peter Frampton, J.J. Cale, Warren Zevon and P.F. Sloan thrown in for good measure. BY MICK PATRICK (ACE RECORDS) |

| Wailers - At The Castle / & Co These two classic albums were rock'n'roll 101 for the musicians of the Pacific Northwest in the 1960s. Hear the band and the songs that inspired a legion of kids to pick up a guitar and get down and dirty. Our Etiquette Records series continues with two early 1960s vintage albums, loaded with bonus tracks, in-depth liner notes and rare pix, that showcase the Fabulous Wailers and their rockin' Northwest revue: we can now all vicariously share in a taste of that Spanish Castle magic. BUCK ORMSBY writes Bobby "Blue" Bland, James Brown, Freddy King: the Wailers all had that roots music imbedded in us, we played black music but white people thought it was ours. It was our interpretation of it. When we leaned into that stuff, it was probably after Rich Dangel had been in the service and picked up on it. Rich was the driver there, he was a real music person and he absorbed and he learned. He was the guy who every time I saw him he'd have his guitar in his hand. And Rockin' Robin Roberts and Gail Harris, the singers, they would choose their material too, bringing it back to the group to learn. Man, that was a great time for us, because everyone was contributing. We just did what we felt was real good and had the best feeling to it. The Wailers was a good foundation for all of the local musicians in the Pacific Northwest, because we got into it with a bit more depth, as to where we took our music and our ideas from. We were really listening a lot, and going and seeing these great R&B performers who had these shows together that were so tight. But any time we recorded anybody else's tunes, the idea was to make it your own. And the kids would come up at the dances and go wow, these are your songs. This was before anybody had focused on their writing skills. We were in another situation, where we had to create our own music. The creativity was starting to happen with our instrumentals, it was starting to gel-.-you could do that, you didn't need somebody else's song to go into a recording studio, and that was kinda what prompted us to record. We knew we had to follow up our Louie Louie hit with something, we knew we had to do another project - everybody at the time said we couldn't do our own album, like they had said, you can't have your own label. We just went ahead and did it anyway! These Etiquette reissues are shaping up to be one of the most dynamic, well-thought out presentations of the history of the Etiquette Records label to date. It's a continuing story, with in-depth liner notes, interviews, and the details behind the first artist-owned independent rock'n'roll label to promote Northwest music. Now, who would have thought that our musical efforts and recordings, made forty plus years ago, would stand the test of time enough to warrant this meticulous and special attention that Alec Palao and the Ace people in London have given the material? The Wailers, Sonics, Galaxies, and the several other artists who were part of the Etiquette family would be proud. |

| Wailers - Fabulous Wailers THE TALL COOL ONES by David Burke of Pipeline Magazine Although their musical career extended right through until the late 60s, the Wailers were originally very much a product of the 50s. Formed in the north-west corner of America in 1958, they spent 18 hectic months learning the basics of their trade, scrambled a recording contract with New York label Golden Crest, and by May 1959 had scored a Top 40 hit with Tall Cool One. The sad fact is though, mention the name the Wailers to most mainstream musical types and the chances are that the name of reggae king Bob Marley will come back to you. For rock'n'roll folk, however, the real Wailers will always be the boys from Tacoma, who stirred it up real good many years before Bob had even arrived. Think about the crop of top rock instrumentalists of 1959 and your mind automatically goes to people like Duane Eddy, Johnny & the Hurricanes and the Champs. The Wailers had a rather different character to their more sound-of-the-moment rivals. The sound they seemed to be striving for was that which had regularly featured on the Specialty label circa 1956-58, and their big idol was Little Richard. The absence of a pukka electric bass on their Golden Crest recordings and the inclusion of pumping piano and raucous sax also serves to strengthen the comparison. Listen to Dirty Robber, the sole vocal track from their debut album, and the influence of the Georgia Peach is immediately obvious. Lyrically the track provides an interesting contrast too. Whilst songwriters in the encroaching world of pop were dreaming up female fantasy figures in the shape of teenage princesses, vocalist Kent Morrill was referring to his female companion as a dirty robber - who even stole my guitar! Fabian would have no doubt choked on the words. The Wailers were not a one trick band either. Their other major source of inspiration, which greatly served to increase their unique-ness, was modern jazz. In fact the band's leader, Johnny Greek, was a trained trumpeter and had then only recently switched to guitar. Listen to Driftwood from their album and you are suddenly transported to a smoky Greenwich Village jazz club as Greek does his best to out-cool stylists such as Miles Davis and Chet Baker with his own low-down haunting trumpet blues. Their talent did not stop there, as not only did they compose Tall Cool One themselves, but they also wrote their entire first album! This was extremely unusual at the time, especially from a band still in their teens. It was high quality material too, good enough to attract the attention of the Ventures who recorded no less than three of their compositions. Their #68 follow-up Mau-Mau was also an original composition and features John Greek on flugelhorn, surely a rare chart appearance by the instrument in a lead role. The band's final chart placing came in April 1964 when, with the second bite of the cherry, they re-ascended to an almost identical #38 position with the re-release of Tall Cool One. Down the intervening years the Wailers have been appallingly treated by the bootleggers. The real sound of genuine Golden Crest masters is magic, but you would never know that by listening to the distorted, shrill junk that they have provided. Now, thanks to Ace's legendary care, we can all enjoy the true magnificence of the Wailers' sound as it was meant to be heard. Not only have Ace succeeded in locating the original master tapes, but there are also a further four never-before-issued tracks to enjoy! This high-class release deservedly puts the name of the Wailers back in the hands of its true originators. |
