4. Uptight, Out Of Sight
Superb garage, surf and (freak-)beat sounds from Australia, 1967! This LP compiles
songs from the soundtrack for the surf movie 'The Hot Generation', plus single versions
and previously unissued recordings. Among the highlights is the 8-minute 'Uptight, Out
Of Sight' that's a genre in itself: genuine progressive garage punk! You can see where
the seeds were formed for THE SUNSETS' transition into TAMAM SHUD. Including liner
notes from film maker Paul Witzig and lots of eye candy from the movie, this release is
totally mindblowing!

Steven and Jeff McDonald who were intermittently joined by a revolving cast of members
including Greg Hetson (Circle Jerks) and Ron Reyes (Black Flag). Full of catchy,
melodic, thrash punk/power pop gems, their major label debut ‘Third Eye’ has been
increasingly hard to come by on vinyl until now.

Rolling Stones, with Brazilian bossa nova, jazz and takes on soundtrack themes. All

RAY BROWN/MOONSTONE'S sole album, 1970's 'Mad House', is an Australian anomaly of the
time. The music comes across as a potpourri of late '60s US West-Coast sounds, feat.
sitar, tampoura, dholak, tabla, banjo, violin, pedal steel guitar, flute, cello, piano
and more! In the mid-'60s Ray Brown fronted the highly rated group The Whispers,
sharing bills with a.o. Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs, Tony Worsley & The Blue Jays, The
Easybeats, Normie Rowe & The Playboys and Max

Originally released in June 1991 as a limited edition release on Insipid Vinyl, this

reached out to request a copy of the record before it was released!)

Recorded for Elektra in 1968, this was meant to be the debut-album by THE STALK-FORREST
GROUP. Though a promotional single (featuring the session's tracks 'What Is Quicksand'
and 'Arthur Comics') was pressed and sent exclusively to radio stations, the LP-release
never happened at the time. One year later the band would re-emerge as the BLUE OYSTER
CULT. fans of that legendary band will go nuts with this vinyl edition of the Stalk
-Forrest Group's 1968 Elektra recordings.

Warner (whose brother, Bruce was in The Thought Criminals).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BRC 029 MIKE TINGLEY ABSTRACT PRINCE LP 02.2019
Finally reissued on vinyl (with reproduced cover artwork) is a delightful, heavily
orchestrated, baroque-tinged pop-psych gem, originally released in 1968 by Decca in
The Netherlands only. Hailing from the south of California, musician Mike Tingley
travelled Europe, but soon found himself stranded in Amsterdam, ofcourse flat broke.
In order to earn some money he started playing small coffee houses and bars.
An influential A&R manager got tipped, which resulted in a superb album, recorded
with some of Holland's top studio musicians and with involvement from producer Tony
Vos (also known from the psychedelic days of a.o. Boudewijn de Groot and Cuby & The
Blizzards).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BRCB 030 THE NUNS THE NUNS 7" 07.2019
01. DECADENT JEW
02. SAVAGE
03. SUICIDE CHILD
Transparent blue or red version. The Nuns were part of the very first wave 1970s
punk rock coming from San Francisco. A three prong vocal attack led by the
charismatic Jennifer Miro, along side Jeff Olener and Richie Detrick, rounded out
by Pat Ryan, Jeff Raphael and future Rank And File member Alejandro Escovedo.
The Nuns would go on to record for Posh Boy and Bomp but this is where it all began
for the band and seminal 415 Records alike. Easily the rawest release they would
release. Subsequent releases were crossing over to be far more polished.
The Nuns legend would be cemented in punk rock history by being on the bill for the
very last Sex Pistols show at Winterland alongside the Avengers. This release has
been completely unavailable since its original 1978 release.
