POP PSYCH STRUT

The Left Banke "My Friend Today"
YESSSSSSS! I push this song on everyone - I just put an
MP3 of it on Wax**ermy last week, which was promptly ignored

The LP by "Jameson" entitled Color Me In on Verve is good
stuff, I have MP3's (a bit rough vinyl source) that I have posted
on here before, and could re-post if you want. It was prouced by
Curt Boettcher, a name to look for on pop LP's when seeking out
psychedelic touches...

I would also recommend The Bubble Gum Machine LP on Senate,
although I would have to assume the best track on there, "I Wonder,"
was on a World of Beats tape years before I ever owned the LP...


Like most 60's music, alot of the best stuff is on 45-only. I've
found some good pop-psych stuff on White Whale, B.T. Puppy and Smash...
if I can dig some stuff out, I'll post a few groups/titles.
 
Fargo on RCA
how is this? there's been a sealed copy sitting for $20 nearby forever... it's pretty good. theres one song thats absolutely incredible to me. something that sounds like it could've been on "Forever Changes".
 
the Soft Sounds for Gentle People comps are great. there's 4 volumes and a spinoff all-male edition, Mystic Males. the 4th one just came out so i haven't heard it yet. but 1-3 are

The Match- A New Light (RCA)1969... Nice vocal pop lp a la Free Design.
Has a nice cut of 'Where Do I Go' from Hair and a few other moments of goodness.


The Fireballs- Come On React (Atco). Has a dope cut
of Get Out Of My Life Woman.

If i remember correctly they are both from 1969.
 
Cosign on the Rare Bird & Emitt Rhodes. I have a soft spot for Gabor Szabo & the california dreamers too.

I'm sure this is of no use to Phill, but I just love this track, thought it may be new to somebody.

These are vinyl rips, with the exception of the 13th floor elevators. Peace
 
YEAHHH... glad this thread got resurrected. That NGC "Skipping through the night" is EXACTLY the kind of schitt I love. the Christian song is pretty nice too. Can you fix that Duncan Browne link?
I slept on almost all of the earlier mp3 links too... if anybody can reup any of that stuff too it would be appreciated
 
And while I'm on the subject, on that Smashbredrens porn mix now on sale at the Strut Shop (that mix is
fire.gif
btw), does anyone know what the track is where dude is singing something like "beautiful scarlet, summer's really gonna hurt you" or some schitt? I may even have that record, I just can't think of what it is. I love that kinda schitt. THANKS IN ADVANCE
Rare Bird.
Okay, right... I thought i had that schitt. That's the one with the drumbreak intro, correct? I'm gonna pull it out right now

btw, the version of beautiful Scarlet that i was actually thinking about is by Capability Brown

Aye, sounds like Beautiful Scarlet by Rare Bird off their self titled lp on Charisma (good stuff)
I'm glad this thread brought up that track as I didn't realise I had it and I've been listening to that mix a lot recently. Typically I've just started to pack records for a house move and that LP has ended up in one of the boxes

Just bought the Beast LP recently and Down By The River (not Neil Young) has a real nice summer pop psych sound to it...Summertime rip-off but in a good way.
 
Free Design-Bubble Gum
That whole LP with that track on it is pretty solid, and I generally do not like their stuff, except this one.
