This is a superb collection. If you like English-flavoured psych pop which mixes strong tunes and harmonies with wonky organ sounds and cool effects, then def buy this. Yeah, Yeah, No by The Brentwoods is an absolute classic.

Norman Petty is not a name which comes immediately to mind with things psychedelic but its not as much that but a reminder that here was a man who like George Martin in the UK would learn from those he recorded and a willigness to experiment.
He came from a musical area which had nothing much to do with rock'n'roll or country but the more sedate sounds of cocktail jazz like the way George Martin had had little previous experience recording the UKs answer and seeing possibilities with the 1962 Beatles that maybe he could find his own Cliff & the Shadows.
Here's a ton of stuff which only found releasee in the States at the time or was put back in the vaults.Who knows why anything is hidden away for 40 years?If there'd been a studio fire all would have been lost.
Now America can get back the music it missed first time round because they have to import CDs like this from us!!

The description above just about says it all so I'll keep it short and sweet. ACE/BIG BEAT and ALEC PALAO have out done themselves.I own a LOT of Psych/Garage Comps and this is the most enjoyable and best sounding of them all!! Absolutely ALL KILLER AND NO FILLER.Petty was the MAN!!

A Personal Flashback 3 Jan 2009
By J. E. Nelson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Back in the late sixties I was stationed at Cannon AFB near Clovis, NM. Through mutual acquaintances, I met Bill Jones (who is quoted in the CD booklet) and, over a two year period, helped him do light shows for some local Clovis bands, which were mostly managed by Dan Miller. One was the Lodestone Rode, most of whose members became the version of the Apple Glass Cyndrum that has two of the best cuts on this CD. I believe on one occasion we did lights for Group Axis, and also once for the The Tyme of Day at a concert which featured several bands. It certainly was an interesting and edgy time in the evolution of American popular music, and this CD generally captures that atmosphere. Not every cut is successful. The Fireballs, who could be a good band with more conventional rock material, seem woefully unauthentic on "Groovy Motions." The Cyndrum and Group Axis acquit themselves well here, and I had forgotten what a good song the Tyme of Day's "Listen to What is Never Said" was. Though I was aware of several Canadian groups coming to Clovis to record with Norman Petty, many of these bands from there and elsewhere in the US are unknown to me. Of those, I am particularly impressed with The Frantics, The Cords, White Lightin', and The Hooterville Trolley. At that time in the late sixties, Clovis, New Mexico, was probably unique among towns of its size in having such an interesting music scene. Of course so much of that was due to Norman Petty and his studio, made famous by the pioneering rock work he did with Buddy Holly. I'm glad that Big Beat has given me the opportunity to hear these groups and their mostly forgotten takes on psych-pop.

the last two songs are good else keep going try nuggets 2 19 May 2009
By er ic harapat - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
my personal opion is that this does not define a great set of psychedelic music rather a misrepresentatin of bad 50's cut's like stuff buddy holly would have left on the floor however the last two songs are worth there money. perhaps if amazon allows you should download those songs. else keep going if your looking for psychedelic music. my suggestions are nuggets 2, the deep six, the essential pebbles and the yankee dollar or whale feather.
