Unknown but great Swedish progressive pop (a bit like Dungen actually) from 1973. The first, and best, from these guys and on the legendary vanity press label Efel.
GLENRAYS: Egyptian Nightmare (Perry US) Vg+ 260:-
“ The Glenrays remind us that a minor key, a wordless chorus, and a sinuous saxophone line are all you need to turn bluesy instrumental burlesque into Saharan gold. I can’t find mention of this single anywhere. I’d guess it was from ’63 or ’64, though. The Glenrays were a rocking instrumental combo with a few 45s on Minneapolis’s Gaity/Perry family of labels, surveyed brilliantly on theBloodshot! compilations from Norton records. “Egyptian Nightmare” is actually pretty sophisticated fare by the label's standards; this was a label whose output tended to reflect the tastes of the more troglodyte element of Minnesota’s teen populace.” Tex courtesy officenaps

Rare Swedish X-ian folk garage rock EP. “Thank You, Oh Lord” surely has world class charm just like the Click Kids and others.
JOHNNY’S GUITAR: Supannahong EP (Rosana Thailand 65) Ex/M- 450:-
Another killer Thai EP with 4 totally mind bending guitar instrumentals from 1965. The fabulous Johnny’s Guitar who started out in 1963 was the king of the string bands in Thailand. The band was led by the then 29 years old and almost six feet tall organist Noparatana Tipayaosot, who also used to be playing with ”Bangkok Blue Band”. Supannahong was Johnny’s Guitar’s first hit in 1965. A truly great example of how the Thai string bands developed their own style through mixing pop sounds with native Thai music. Supannahong is a traditional tune reserved for a boat procession on the mighty Chao Praya river. In Johnny’s Guitar’s hands the song turns into a bonafide haunting psychedelic west coast Asian dream masterpiece that even pre-dates the coming of the psychedelic era. Others are unique and great instro garage surf rockers. This one is a big big fave which is still almost unknown among garage and psych collectors.

LAST OF THE UNKNOWNS: She’s Gone/1, 2 Many Xs (Thundermen US) M/M
Awesome mega rare US late 1970s total unknown (yeah it’s mnot on Google) that was championed by Paul Major way back. One side is kick ass local hardrock reminding me of Jordan Michals “Armageddon” album with full-on head splitting fuzz guitar lead extravaganza. The flip is something else completely; outlaw garage psych with an amazing guitar break.
THE LAW & THE SANDY: Oh! Oh! Oh! EP (Crown Thailand 6?) swol Vg+++/Ex 650:-

LEGENDARY STARDUST COWBOY: Paralyzed/Who’s Knocking At My Door (Mercury US 68) ch M- 350:-
A true rock & roll primitive, the Legendary Stardust Cowboy played a crude brand of rockabilly obsessed with the Wild West and science fiction, and filled with vocal effects ranging from rebel yells and war whoops to a startling array of animal noises. In 1968, inspired by Tiny Tim's appearance on The Tonight Show, Odam decided to drive to New York to do the same thing. He stopped in Fort Worth, where he caught the attention of two vacuum cleaner salesmen who knew a local club owner. Impressed by the amateurish abandon of his performance, the salesmen took him to a recording studio the next morning, where the Legendary Stardust Cowboy recorded his debut single, "Paralyzed," with engineer T-Bone Burnette. Local promoter Major Bill Smith somehow sold the single to Mercury for national distribution.
LEGENDARY STARDUST COWBOY: Paralyzed/Who’s Knocking At My Door (Mercury US 6?) ch M- 800:-
Rare US Promo 45" released in 1968 on Mercury Records. Cat.72862. B-side is "Who's knocking at my door". A true rock & roll primitive even wilder than cult legend Hasil Adkins, the Legendary Stardust Cowboy played a crude brand of rockabilly obsessed with the Wild West and science fiction, and filled with vocal effects ranging from rebel yells and war whoops to a startling array of animal noises. In 1968, inspired by Tiny Tim's appearance on The Tonight Show, Odam decided to drive to New York to do the same thing. He stopped in Fort Worth, where he caught the attention of two vacuum cleaner salesmen who knew a local club owner. Impressed by the amateurish abandon of his performance, the salesmen took him to a recording studio the next morning, where the Legendary Stardust Cowboy recorded his debut single, "Paralyzed," with engineer T-Bone Burnette. Local promoter Major Bill Smith somehow sold the single to Mercury for national distribution.
MICHEL LEGRAND: UN HOMME ET MORT O.S.T. (v RE) NEW 145:-
When composing the original soundtrack to Jacques Deray's nervous and stylised polar "Un Homme est Mort" in 1972, Michel Legrand no doubt had no idea that the 7 inch emblazoned with the film's 2 themes would later become one of the most sought after records on the rare groove planet. A masterpiece of funk and warped film music that figures on every self-respecting wish list. To understand the powers of attraction of this little gem of a vinyl, we need only lower the needle onto side 1 and feverishly wait forthe beats of its opener which take the form of a strange hypnotic mantra, solidly mixing 2 repetitive lines played by a static bass and a killer wah-wah guitar. After 20 seconds that seem to go on forever, the track explodes, setting itself free against a simultaneous assault from drums, a second guitar and a majestic Hammond organ. We assist powerlessly, yet consentingly in this magnificent debauched groove which transforms its A-side into a dazzlingly powerful orgy of psychedelic funk.
LIFE ON EARTH! /(LIV PA JORDEN!)!: Blomkraftens Frukt (Subliminal Sounds 2010) NEW 85:-Deluxe limited edition 499 copies only worldwide. LIFE ON EARTH! BECOME PROVINCIAL! By public demand Life on Earth! releases the live favorite Blomkraftens Frukt (Flower Powers Fruit) as a single on February 13, 2010! 2009 was an eventful year for Life on Earth! with the release of A Space Water Loop and two trips to the U.S. and fine gigs in cities like Portland, New York and Brooklyn, and odd places like the cowboy/artist town of Marfa, Texas and under the red wood-trees at the classic Henry Miller Library in Big Sur, California.

Perfect both at the late winters party starters as well as the club's dance floor, but also as a comfort for the hung-over afternoons endless brooding or if the week seems too long and boring. Do not miss this unique offer to be happy and feel good for the rest of your life!
MICHAEL LIGGINS AND THE SUPER SOULDS: Loaded tO The Gills (NowAgain US re) M-/M- 100:-12” single It simply doesn’t get heavier than Phoenix, Arizona’s Michael Liggins and The Super Souls. While Dyke and the Blazers were recording some of funk music’s premier sides in this dusty desert city, Liggins and company set up shop in a cheap studio to record two dirty, downright psychedelic, peyote-ingesting funk tunes that would go on to languish locally for nearly thirty years.“Loaded to the Gills” and “Loaded Back” are two fine examples of Black American rock littered with breakbeats and possessing the off-kilter grooves that immediately appeal to the funky soul of hip hop generation. Remastered and now re-released, this twelve inch also includes “Loaded to the Gills” bonus beats and a recently discovered side by Michael Liggins side-project We The People.

Thai Boxing and what a song it is:funky rhythms with the sounds of elbow punching! Includes both the Thai and the English version, which are equally great. Pretty much impossibly rare.
BOBBY JOE OTT: Flint River Inn (Metromedia US) M- 70:-
So who‚s Bobby? It is in fact Darius under parts of his real name. After the LP and 45 on Chartmaker he recorded this radio station promo only bar rocker for Metromedia. Probably to make some money. It‚s not very good at all I‚m afraid but it‚s still recorded by and related to the man who made one thee best 60s psych lp.
PAINTED SHIP: And She Said Yeah (London/Garage Greats re) NEW 110:-
From Vancouver, B.C. In 1966 this band cut 2 of the best garage-punk singles to come out of Canada. This is the 2nd and by far rarer of the 2.

Totally unknown great garagy outlaw west coast style winner with ripping gnarly guitars all thru. Trippy sound on the vocals which are sort of mystic. The band sound like they're off in their own world for the time…well they must have been as this 45 was released in 1978 and not in 1969. Both sides are really strong and unusual & obscure. Labels are autographed by the band.

ROOSTERS: Love Machine (Philips US 6?) 200:-
Cool and obscure US 60s pop psych from LA. First off, this is not the Roosters which included the pre-Yardbirds Eric Clapton. However, the L.A.-based group that put out "One of These Days" in 1966 on the Progressive Sounds of America label may have been the ancestor of these Roosters; "One of These Days" was written by Timothy Ward, who with perhaps one or two others was part of the "Love Machine" sessions, backed by a gaggle of studio pros under the guiding hand of producer Snuff Garrett. "Love Machine" was written by James A. Griffin and Michael Z. Gordon, both fair-sized names in L.A. pop; Gordon penned "Out of Limits", the Marketts hit which incorporated bits of Marius Constant's Twilight Zone theme, and Griffin is the chap who would later keep David Gates from turning Bread into something completely white and fluffy. "Love Machine" itself is a strange little bop, one of the few pop tunes I can recall with both vibes andwah-wah guitar; the vocalist sounds like Gary Puckett on Dexedrine. "Love Machine" never quite got into the Hot 100, but it was a fair-sized hit in the Southeast, and reportedly made #2 in Miami. Last I heard, Ward was living in Santa Barbara. Somehow, this song, in a recording by a studio group under the name "Pastoral Symphony," wound up being a medim size hit in Australia at about the same time.
The Sea-ders: Undecidedly/Thanks A Lot (Acme re) NEW 105:-
Impossible to find 1966 single of eastern-raga freakbeat by Israeli band who hit London the same year. A truly fantastic single that collectors kill for, get it while you can!

White label promo copy. Fantastic mid70s psychy cosmic funk trip.
SODSAI: Shake Baby Shake/San Francisco (Metro Thailand) tofc Vg+++/Vg+++ 800:-
The cute Sodsai Chaengkij had a prolific record output during the 60s and was the most popular singer in Bangkok, where she frequently appeared at the famous Lolita Night Club on Rajdamnoen Avenue. You can hear why on her performance of Shake Baby Shake. This is an ultra rare Thai 60s single and it has a weird format. The disc is a 6 inch? Never saw any others like this before. Fantastic song, amazing sleeve and disc and never up for grabs.

VIGON: POPCORN POPCORN (V F re) NEW 166:-
When Barclay launched the Egg label in 1969, sub-division dedicated to soul, funk and psychedelic music, it would make a monumental impression with its first release, the fantastic album "Original Popcorn", which, over the years, has come to be recognised as a moment of rare groove Made in France. Steering this musical UFO we find the mad musicians from the group Cruciferius (pre-Magma line up) along with the fabulous Franco- Moroccan rhythmnblues singer Vignon, a unique personality, brimming over with energy and with the voice of a soulman, capable of making the Americans, though undisputed leaders in the style, green with envy. On the A side of this brave 7" we find "Popcorn Popcorn", a great moment in repetitive and hypnotic funk, similar to the trance to be found on the album, while on the B side lies a unique track, no doubt from the same high voltage recording sessions. The super groovy "Frozen steak Popcorn" retains momentum, taking on the allure of psychedelic blues on speed, stuffed with reverberating guitars, intrepid bass, and an army of percussion come to swell the already mammoth drum beat. In short, full marks for this fantastic little record which has become an essential addition to its cult album of origin. From original master tapes. Limited edition, Numbered. Original artwork.
CLIFF WAGNER: HER NAME WAS SUE (V F re) NEW 166:-
You may have never heard of Cliff Wagner, but listening to the two tracks on this obscure single will quickly earn this American artist a top ranking place in your playlists. Released at the dawn of the 70s on Egg, the excellent French pop/progressive label, both songs evolve within an excellent soul and rock register, tinted with wonderful shades of psychedelia. If the poignant "Her name was Sue" plays the sober and reverent card, the sublime "Red Spot" blatantly brims over with energy with surprising flexibility. Right from the bass/drum break intro which holds its ground effortlessly against the sonic attacks of a dazzling fuzz guitar, shivers of pleasure arise, and feet begin to mechanically tap out the rhythm. And then a radiant Hammond organ comes in, followed by a mischievous wah-wah guitar and a discrete, but altogether essential bell. This magical orchestration, product of Herv Roys expertise as crafty arranger, disruptive with the work of the producer, offers Wagners gravely voice a sparkling box of soul. Here we have a great, very great track, pop attuned to the max. A real gem! From original master tapes. Limited edition, Numbered. Original artwork.
