Technicolour Dreaming

Another assortment of the varied soundscape of psychedelia and associated oddities brought to you once again by the Cat and the Brat on Adelaide’s eclectic 3D Radio 93.7 “fmmmmm” [as we like to say!] There were new songs from Crystal Jacqueline & the Honey Pot and Bronco Bullfrog (courtesy of Keith at the wonderfully idiosyncratic Fruits de Mer label), as well as Temples, Charlie Boyer & the Voyeurs, Graham Day & the Forefathers (thank you Mole from State Records!), Toy and les Limiñanas from their respective recent releases, plus a smattering of tracks taken from various compilations by the likes of Melbourne’s Dead Parties, Billy Nichols, the Tuneful Trolley and My Bloody Valentine and a whole bunch of others from various locales and eras – all in all, yet another episode of Technicolour Dreaming to enjoy, so until next week.....
