V.A.- Where The Action Is! Los Angeles Nuggets 1965-1968

Компиляшка от, широкоизвестного любителям шестидесятины, лейбла Рино(Rhino). 100 песен, и еще одна, из славного города Лос-Анджелеса расфасованы по четырем дискам по такому принципу: 1)Популярные всем известные банды выступавшие в самых крутых клубах города ангелов. 2)Банды чуть менее известные из северных и восточных окраин города. 3)Включает в себя студийные проекты. 4)Кантри, фолк, псих-фолк и всяческие маргиналии зараждающейся психоделической эры.

В целом все четрыре диска содержат довольно таки популярный материал, по крайней мере я для себя глобальных открытий не сделал.. но всё ж встречаются и малоизвестные имена. Оценивать бок сет не буду.. смотрите сами, читайте названия команд.. я думаю они говорят сами за себя :)

Да кстати я решил перейти на шариби потому что рапида внатуре беса гонит, но всё ж в дальнейшем наверное буду дублировать ещё и рапидными ссылками во избежание удаления архивов. Кроме того с нынешнего поста буду давать несколько строк на английском из официальных пресс-релизов для гаражнопсиходеличных товарищей из цивилизованных стран, не понимающих нашего варварского языка.

------------------------------------

WHERE THE ACTION IS! encompasses four discs arranged thematically to cover different aspects of the pop, rock, club and Top 40 sounds of the era. The first covers some of the most notable bands that performed in the clubs of Hollywood's Sunset Strip. Disc two features a sampling of the musicians who began life in South L.A., East L.A. and such far-flung suburbs as Riverside and Bakersfield. The third delves into the artistry of L.A.'s producers, arrangers and Wrecking Crew of studio players. The final disc takes us from the nascent seeds of folk rock to the first blooms of canyon rock, country rock and full-blown psychedelia in the region. It also shows how rock pioneers such as Del Shannon and Rick Nelson took their own stabs at fitting in with “the kids.” (с)
