Amongst the songs we played for
our first show of 2015 were still more of our picks for “Best of 2014” which we couldn’t fit in or had
missed on the final few shows last year,
such as Sacred Shrines, Kikagaku Moyo, Sudden
Death of Stars, and Southern Boutique,
plus anthologies by Balduin and the Luck of Eden Hall. We also wish to acknowledge
a bunch of very cool, small independent record companies who help make it
possible for these bands to get their music pressed on vinyl or CD or cassette,
as often the bands can’t afford to pay all the costs, as I personally well know
[thank you Smashed
Records!]. Amongst our
favourites are the prolific Fruits de Mer , Beyond Beyond is Beyond, MegaDodo,
State Records, Trouble
In Mind, Captcha, Sunny Day Records, the
Active Listener label, Sonic Cathedral,
Off The Hip, Anti-Fade
and many more. Without them, we wouldn’t be able to play most of the new music
that we do, so thank you all [and to the
others that we’ve forgotten, as no doubt we have, our
apologies!] Lastly, played our final “Band
of the Week” [we’re making way for a new weekly feature, due to start next week... ] but it
was a good one – Polska Radio One from Yekaterinburg
in Russia, who’ve been making great psychedelic music for some years now, but
with the release of their excellent debut album “Cosmos
Inside” on an American label, they have moved to a new level and
hopefully will gain worldwide recognition... as I think we’ve mentioned before,
this new wave of psychedelia is a global movement and there are new bands
everywhere. So until
next week.....
...... here is the
playlist, with some visuals….. plus a very cool German TV show from 1968
