The Merseybeats are a Merseybeat band that emerged from the Liverpool scene in the early 1960s, performing at The Cavern Club along with The Beatles, Gerry & The Pacemakers and other similar artists and remains active until today. The current line-up is: Tony Crane (founder member) lead vocals and lead guitar; Billy Kinsley (founder member) lead vocals and rhythm guitar; Bob Packham (joined 1974) backing vocals and bass guitar; Dave Goldberg keyboards and lead guitar (joined 2000); and Lou Rosenthal (joined 2000) drums. They signed a recording contract with Fontana and had their first hit single in 1963 with "It's Love That Really Counts", followed in 1964 by their million-selling recording "I Think of You" which gained them their first gold disc. The Merseybeats appeared regularly at Liverpool's Cavern Club, and they claim to have appeared there with The Beatles on more occasions than any other band from that era. They were also successful abroad, touring in Germany and the US in 1964, and having their own Merseybeats Show on Italian television.01 - Milkman02 - Hello, Young Lovers03 - He Will Break Your Heart04 - Funny Face05 - Really Mystified06 - The Girl That I Marry07 - Fools Like Me08 - My Heart And I09 - Bring It On Home To Me10 - Lavender Blue11 - Jumping Jonah12 - Don't Turn AroundLINK |
 Rod Piazza is an American blues harmonica player and singer. In the mid 1960s, Piazza formed his first band The House of DBS, which later changed its name to the Dirty Blues Band. The band signed with ABC-Bluesway and released two albums in 1967 and 1968. The band broke up in 1968, and Piazza formed Bacon Fat that year. Piazza's idol and mentor, George "Harmonica" Smith joined the band and they had a "dual harp" sound. Bacon Fat released two albums the following two years. The Los Angeles' blues band Bacon Fat was essentially a vehicle for Rod Piazza and his superb `chromatic' harmonica playing - loud, live and gutsy! The band line-up on this disc includes Buddy Reed and Gregg Schaefer on guitars, J.D. Nicholson on Piano with Jerry Smith on bass and Dick Innes on drums. 01 - Up The Line02 - Boom, Boom (Out Go The Lights)03 - Small's On 53Rd04 - She's A Wrong Woman05 - I Need Your Love06 - Juicy Harmonica07 - Nobody But You08 - Telephone Blues09 - You're So Fine10 - Too LateLINK |

 Hailing from Detroit City, hard rockers Third Power were led by singer/guitarist Drew Abbott (later to become a longtime member of Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band), along with bassist Jem Targal and drummer Jim Craig. Third Power formed in 1969 and quickly emerged as a favorite on the local club circuit thanks to the band's hard rock, bone-rattling sound and their influence from such three-person bands as Cream or the Jimi Hendrix Experience. In 1970 the album Believe was recorded for the Vanguard label but it was deemed too heavy for the label's direction and lacked the support that could have made it more of a hit. This decision by Vanguard to drop the band from their roster almost immediately after the album's release made it an instant collectable.(AV)01 - Gettin' Together02 - Feel So Lonely03 - Passed By04 - Lost In a Daydream05 - Persecution06 - Comin' Home07 - Won't Beg Any More08 - Crystalline Chandelier09 - Like Me Love MeLINK |

 Blue Cheer were an American psychedelic blues-rock band that initially performed and recorded in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and were sporadically active from that point on until 2009. Based in San Francisco, Blue Cheer played in a psychedelic blues-rock style, and are also credited as being pioneers of heavy metal (their cover of "Summertime Blues" is sometimes cited as the first in the genre), punk rock, stoner rock, doom metal, experimental rock, and grunge. According to Tim Hills in his book, The Many Lives of the Crystal Ballroom,"Blue Cheer was the epitome of San Francisco psychedelia. The band is rumored to have been named after a street brand of LSD and promoted by renowned LSD chemist and former Grateful Dead patron, Owsley Stanley." Jim Morrison of The Doors called the group, "The single most powerful band I've ever seen." Blue Cheer is the fourth album by Blue Cheer, released in 1969 on Philips Records. Gary Lee Yoder contributed songwriting for the opening and closing tracks and would later join the group as guitarist on their next album The Original Human Being (1970). The album is the first Blue Cheer release as a four piece band, as they had always been a power trio prior.01 - Fool02 - You're Gonna Need Someone03 - Hello L.A.,Bye Bye Birmingham04 - Saturday Freedom05 - Ain't That The Way (Love's Supposed To Be)06 - Rock And Roll Queens07 - Better When We Try08 - Natural Man09 - Lovin' You's Easy10 - The Same Old StoryLINK |
 Blackfoot Sue was a British pop rock band, formed in 1970 by the twin brothers Tom and David Farmer, Alan Jones and Eddie Golga. A single released in August 1972, "Standing in the Road", reached number 4 on the UK Singles Chart. Lack of further tangible success left them labelled as one-hit wonders. However, they did have another record enter the UK Singles Chart. "Sing Don't Speak" reached number 36 in December 1972. In November 1972, they appeared on the German television programme, Disco. According to Allmusic, "they were written off as a teen sensation and broke up in 1977". This is the debut album of the band.01 - Messiah02 - Country Home03 - Cry04 - My Oh My05 - Now We're Three06 - The Spring Of '6907 - Glittery Obituary08 - On His Own09 - Too Soon10 - Gypsy Jam11 - Standing In The Road12 - Celestial Plain13 - Sing Don't Speak14 - 2 B Free15 - Summer(From The Seasons Suite)LINK |
 The V.I.P.'s (Art) were a British R&B musical ensemble formed in Carlisle, Cumberland, (North West England) in late 1963, out of an earlier outfit known as The Ramrods, who had formed in Carlisle in 1960. The band members were: Mike Harrison (lead vocals); Greg Ridley (bass guitar); Frank Kenyon (rhythm guitar) (1963-67); Jimmy Henshaw (lead guitar) (1963-67); Keith Emerson (electric organ) (1966 - 1967); Luther Grosvenor (lead guitar) (1967); Walter Johnstone (drummer) (1963-67) and Mike Kellie (drummer) (1967).

 British progressive rock band formed by A.B. Benson - Organ, Vocals, Dave Chriss - Bass, John Cook - Drums and Dave Titley - Guitar, Lead Vocals. "This is a band whose concept album is based on the Ten Commandments. Each track deals with a different commandment. The album, which was produced by Miki Dallon, was dominated by Bob Leaper's orchestral arrangements, but there are also some good melodies, strong vocals and organ work and powerful drumming. The best tracks are those where the orchestral arrangements are more discreet: "He Is My God", on which the melody sounds like King Crimson in places; "Images", which features strong vocals, good drumming and organ work; the mellow and melodic "People" and "False Witness", a good progressive piece with some fine guitar leads and powerful organ."(Vernon Joynson)01 - Prelude - He's My God02 - Images03 - People04 - God's Day05 - Honour Thy Father And Thy Mother06 - Kill07 - Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery08 - Steal09 - False Witness10 - PossessionsLINK |
 The beginnings of the Blossom Toes go as far back as to 1962, when Brian Godding and Brian Belshaw met as apprentices at the Hilger and Watts scientific instrument factory at Highbury, Islington. There they formed a group called The Grave Diggers and eventually played in The Ingoes, a R&B outfit. As The Ingoes, they teamed up with The Yardbirds manager Giorgio Gomelsky and went to Paris where they developed a strong cult following. When back in London for a break, they recruited Jim Cregan, and returned for a second spell in Paris. It was during this time that The Ingoes recorded a single version of Help!, sung in Italian for the Italian market, and an EP on the Riviera label. Right after their London return, drummer Colin Martin, left and was replaced by Kevin Westlake. It was around this time that The Ingoes became Blossom Toes. They were then housed in a flat in Fulham by manager Giorgio Gomelsky and entered the studio to record their debut album. The backing of much of the album was recorded by an orchestra and session men. The album was a 15 track collection of inventive psych pop with it's share of weirdness. Unfortunately, their live act suffered due to the inability to reproduce most of the album on stage. Their second album, If Only For A Moment was released in 1969. It was much less psychedelic than their debut, but still has some fine moments in the epic Love Bomb and the madness of the first track, Peace Loving Man. Brian Belshaw: Bass Guitar, Brian Godding: Guitar, Vocals, Jim Cregan: Guitar, Vocals, Kevin Westlake: Drums (1967-68), Poli Palmer: Drums, Flute, Vibes, Harp, Vocals (1968), Barry Reeves: Drums (1968-69).

 Formed by Jim Mandell - Organ, Flute, Piano, Vocals, David Ryan - Bass, Vocals, Vin Campisi - Guitar and Robert H. Henderson - Drums, Vocals,Puff was the 1969 extension-group of the Rockin Ramrods with songs written by founding Ramrods leader Ron Campisi and featured guitarist-vocalist David Allen Ryan (later of Sha Na Na) and jazz flutist/keyboardist Jim Mandell. The sound of the group was a marked departure from the Rockin' Ramrods. It was softer, more experimental, and for the first time introduced jazz, blues and classical themes into their music. Although the lyrics Ronn Campisi wrote in the early, middle and late stages of his groups were set against different musical idioms, there was always one thematic-constant of kid's dreams, adolescent desires & growing up.01 - Dead Thoughts Of Alfred02 - Rainy Day03 - Vacuum04 - Walk Upon The Water05 - Who Do You Think You Are06 - Of Not Being Able To Go To Sleep07 - When I Wake Up In The Morning08 - Trees09 - It's My Way10 - I Sure Need You11 - Go With You12 - ChangesLINK |

 Brainchild was a jazz rock/fusion band that recorded their sole album Healing Of The Lunatic Owl in western London in 1970 on the A&M label. The album contains sizzling brass rock, which must rank among the best of the genre (early Chicago and If), but also with the much more obscure and even more brilliant Warm Dust and Galliard.

Harvey Coles / bass, vocals, Bill Edwrds / lead guitar, vocals, Dave Muller / drums, Chris Jennings / organ, piano, Brian Wilshaw / saxophone, flute and Lloyd Williams / trumpet.01 - Autobiography02 - Healing Of The Lunatic Owl03 - Hide From The Dawn04 - She's Learning05 - A Time A Place06 - Two Bad Days07 - Sadness Of A Moment08 - To BLINK |
 The Brain Police were an early psychedelic garage band who, in the late '60s, opened for many national acts, including the Who, the Byrds, Cream, Jefferson Airplane, Strawberry Alarm Clock, Steppenwolf, and Buffalo Springfield. They essentially spun off from the group the Man-Dells, with guitarists Rick Randle and Larry Grant and bassist Norman Lombardo, who were all still in junior high when that group released its first single in 1965, "Bonnie" (with "Oh No" on the flipside). The trio had also played with the Other Four. They became the Brain Police in 1968, with Rick's younger brother David Randle joining on guitar, and earned a large local following.

The Box Tops were a Memphis rock group of the second half of the 1960s. They are best known for the hits "The Letter," "Neon Rainbow," "Soul Deep," "I Met Her in Church," and "Cry Like A Baby," and are considered a major blue-eyed soul group of the period. They performed a mixture of current soul music songs by artists such as James and Bobby Purify and Clifford Curry, pop tunes such as "A Whiter Shade of Pale" by Keith Reid, Gary Brooker and Matthew Fisher of Procol Harum, and songs written by their producers, Dan Penn, Spooner Oldham, and Chips Moman. Vocalist Alex Chilton went on to front the powerpop band Big Star and to launch a career as a solo artist, during which he occasionally performed songs he had sung with the Box Tops. The original Box Tops line-up was Bill Cunningham, Danny Smythe, Alex Chilton, Gary Talley and John Evans. Cry Like A Baby, from 1968 is the band'second album. Most members of the band returned to school and the group disbanded in 1970. However, the Bell record label kept releasing new Box Tops singles through early 1971, using material that had already been recorded by Chilton and company. February 1970's "You Keep Tightening Up On Me" scraped into the US Hot 100, and was a slightly bigger hit in Canada. Two further Box Tops singles failed to chart nationally in either the US or Canada, although the original band's final single "King's Highway" was a regional hit in Dallas in the spring of 1971.01 - Cry Like A Baby02 - Deep In Kentucky03 - I'm The One For You04 - Weeping Analeah05 - Every Time06 - Fields Of Clover07 - Trouble With Sam08 - Lost09 - Good Morning Dear10 - 72711 - You Keep Me Hanging On12 - Cry Like A Baby (Single A Side)13 - The Door You Closed To Me (Single B Side)LINK |
 Caldera was an American-based, short-lived project by Robert Margouleff and Malcolm Cecil (both on keyboards), who would form Tonto's Expanding Head Band later the same year. This project also includes Toby Saks on cello and John Atkins on harpsichord and other keyboards. Their released only one album, from 1970, fully titled 'Stabat Mater: A Moog Mass'. As it name suggests it's a conceptual album with sacral thematic - it's a mixture of Christian Contemporary Music and Progressive Electronic - with emphasis on 'classical' passages and Vocoder - in which the carrier is often a synth line, modulated with vocals singing Biblical renderings, often in Latin. The album was released in 1970. There are two different releases, the other one with band's name misspelled CALDARA and different cover, spinning on 45 rpm. Caldera is historical curiosity worth checking both because of an unusual blend of electronic music and contemporary Christian, as well as early Vocoder example combined with classical passages.01 - The Mother Stood02 - Who Is The Man03 - Share With Me The Pain04 - Virgin Of Virgin's05 - Make Me Carry The Death Of Christ06 - In Flames May I Not Be Burned07 - Christ, When I Leave This LifeLINK |
