Australia's & New Zealand's GaragePopModBeatRock Of The '60s: Various - Sixties Downunder 1988-2000 Vol1 (1988 Raven Records) Flac & mp3@320


Hola Folks, like i said earlier today i want to post a small four disc series with great bands and singers from the wonderful Australia/New Zealand. The compilation by Raven Records is full with different styles of downunder pop music from the sixties and i think you will like it. I post everyday one volume.


Raven Records' ambitious four-volume Sixties Downunder series, which collects singles released between 1964 and 1970 by Australian and New Zealand pop bands, is a Nuggets for the Fosters crowd, and illustrates once again how pervasive the Beatles and the other British Invasion groups were in a post-1963 world.

Nothing here puts a revelatory new spin on the jangling garage band sound of the times, but as this first volume shows, it certainly doesn't diminish it either. There are a couple of familiar names here, most notably the Easybeats and the Bee Gees, but they're represented by relatively obscure sides, including the wonderful "Sorry" by the Easybeats and "Spicks & Specks," an odd bit of early cosmic philosophy from the Bee Gees. All and all, this first installment is a very nice start to an interesting series. (allmusic.com)


Here we go
Enjoy

  1. I grew up in Australia/NZ during those times and it's always a joy to hear the sounds of then. It takes me back to a time i will always treasure, where the summers were hotter and longer (I live in UK now) and life was easy. Thanks for all your posts.
