Search - Various :: 60's Beat Italiano

Great collection of ?60s Garage-Punk and Beat from Italy! 26 total tracks that include 8 bonus tracks not on the original LP, issued as a limited pressing in the late 80?s. In the mid 1960?s, Italy like many other countries throughout the world, had a music scene that seemed to spring up overnight with the advent of the Beatles. Unlike scenes in Holland and Scandinavia, the Italian bands rarely had hits outside their own country due mainly to the fact that most of the bands sang solely in Italian. What a shame too, because as you?ll discover with this album, they were every bit as good as bands from England, Holland and the United States. Through this series we hope to expose bands, that for one reason or another, never got the recognition they really deserved. Very informative liner notes and photos make this your manditory text book for Italian Garage Rock 101. So flip on this disc and enjoy! Ciao baby!
