UK three CD assortment that pays homage to American mod music from the 60s. Many of the tracks listed here are drawn from the distinguished again catalogs of Challenge, Scepter/Wand, Etiquette, Swan, Shell, and Select, and numerous these new to CD. Looking Stateside goes again to the roots of the mod scene on Disc One. From the opening bars of Georgia Lynn’s ‘Sugar Shack Queen’, these are the sounds you may need heard down at The Scene Club in London’s Ham Yard (had Guy Stevens or different DJs have owned these tunes on import – for many of them weren’t issued within the UK on the time). Mickey Lee Lane’s ‘Hey Sah Lo Ney’ was famously coated by The Action whereas Curtis Knight was later a fixture on Britain’s rock scene of the early 70s. Disc Two gives an outstanding cross-part of mid-60s soul, from acquainted classics (Chuck Jackson, The Showmen, Don Varner) to extra obscure fare (Timi Yuro, The Kampells, Richard Anthony & The Blue Notes) and an entire lotta high quality in between. Often, we’ve chosen much less acquainted sides. The Newbeats, for instance, are represented by the terrific however typically ignored ‘I’m A Teardrop’. Disc Three is launched with a hail of buzzsaw fuzz guitar and snotty vocals, courtesy of The Brogues’ basic ‘Don’t Shoot Me Down’, and the tempo not often lets up thereafter. Again, the compilers have married bona fide storage punk classics (the Moving Sidewalks, The Sonics, and so forth.) with a clutch of tracks new to CD and others which have eluded compilations of this type.
