5.0 out of 5 stars An instant collection of garage psych, 5 April 2001
By Mr. Raymond A. Newman "rayray" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The only real competition for this box set comes from the Pebbles/Trash box (also available from Amazon). This set wins hands down in terms of sound quality and packaging, although the Pebbles set is also superb. All the classic tunes from Lenny Kaye's original compilation are present and correct, along with over a hundred other amazing punky freakouts.

Unlike Pebbles, which is pretty uniformly fuzz guitar and screaming youths, Nuggets has its tender moments. Consider the Nazz's 'Open My Eyes' which sounds like a prettier version of The Who's 'I Can't Explain'. The pop sensibility of this set means that there are plenty of other points of access for those who aren't used to hardcore sixties fuzz, such as Incense and Peppermints (as heard in Austin Powers) and Liar, Liar (Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barells). If you buy this set, you'll have everything you need to start work on a real obsession.

5.0 out of 5 stars The essential garage primer, 21 Jan 2003
Mostly killer, hardly any filler, this collection is beatifully packaged, with an informative booklet that gives the music a context. For those who love music for fun, this collection is a joy, a primer for 60's music that isn't the Beatles, Stones, Byrds, Dylan (but celebrates it), and a good start to a garage collection. Best tracks have to be 'My world fell down' by Sagittarius (feat. Glenn Campbell), 'A Public Execution' by Mouse and the magnificent '7 and 7 is' by Love. But there are scores more gems that will take you a pleasnat time to discover. Really, highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars I could not be without this, 20 Aug 2007
By C. Stancill (The North, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is an expanded version of Lenny Kaye's original Nuggets compilation. The first disc is the original Nuggets album, whereas the other 3 have since accompanied and made this box set. The original album is fantastic and the extra discs here build on it perfectly.

I hadn't heard any of these songs before (Except Louie Louie). I wasn't around in the 60s but I love the music. This set makes a great change from the usual best of 60s albums with the same songs on everytime. It's also a perfect introduction for anyone just getting into garage rock/psych/proto punk.

I listen to this on shuffle on my MP3 player and I do not skip a track (they really are all good).
My favourite tracks are

Talk Talk - The Music Machine
I Had Too Much To Dream - The Electric Prunes
Public Execution - Mouse and the Traps
Liar Liar - The Castaways
Psychotic Reaction - Count Five
Open My Eyes - The Nazz
Nobody But Me - The Human Beinz
Psycho - The Sonics
Beg, Borrow and Steal - Rare Breed
Riot On Sunset Strip - The Standells
Time Won't Let Me - The Outsiders
Spazz - The Elastik Band

Get it! Experience the fierce American backlash to British Invasion!
