Search - Various Artists :: Looking Back: 80 Mod Freakbeat & Swinging

Excellent three CD set housed in a Clambox with a 48-page booklet. This release, which contains the best in '60s Mod and Freakbeat tunes, boasts a smattering of previously unissued gems from the likes of A Wild Uncertainty, Tony Rivers & The Castaways, The Thoughts, The Trekkas and The Knave. Many tracks are new to CD, including nuggets from the Lloyd Alexander Real Estate (who later became Audience), and soul obscurities from Maynell Wilson, Hoagy Benson and Watson T. Brown & Explosive. Many of the rarities here are drawn from cult British labels such as Planet, Ember and Chapter One. RPM.
