Technicolour Dreaming

In this internet age, it never fails to surprise me how much music is now available from all over the world, that once wouldn't have been accessible unless you were lucky enough to travel extensively. Bands from Norway, Denmark, New Zealand, Belgium and Spain all appeared on the Technicolour Dreaming playlist this week, along with the usual selections from Australia, France and the USA. But even the most obscure releases from those more familiar countries, especially the ones from the 60's, and once available only to dedicated crate diggers, can now be bought at most on-line shops. So enjoy the fruits of the computer age, complete with a few clips to give you the idea...
