long tall shorty

LTS were formed in 1978 as one of the earliest and best Mod Revival band, split up in 1982 and reformed in 2000.
Now they are back with 15 new songs incl. a Re-working of their old live classic ANTI CND which has never been previously recorded by LTS. And the music is more or less the same as in the early stages - Mod Punk with powerpop and 60..s influences.
So once again they epitomized the pure Mod Revival sound with incorporate the agression of Punk and call it today Giffer!
Sleeve notes by Garry Bushell.

The Jaybirds - Take Your Chance

Austria´s finest and most authentic '60s style Psychedelic R&B band is back after 10 Years! Having reached legendary status with their records and live shows, e.g. with THE SONICS in 2008 and THE ROLLING STONES in 1998 they are back now with two new songs. The A side track Take Your Chance is a totally '60s style pop song in the vein of the Byrds, with fine backround choirs, a great guitar riff and a piano contributing. With Boy Meets Girl Story Line on the flipside you got a pure ..67 style song with a psychedelic arrangement.

THE Q – ISSUES 10“ EP 9€
- lim 100 copies are handnumbered and on crystal clear vinyl - SOLD OUT!
- regular black vinyl AVAILABLE!

The Q

'Issues' is the long awaited debut from this UK Mods from outta Gloucestershire.
This limited 10' vinyl EP features 4 songs that have a pure 79 mod revival sound inspired by bands like 'The Jam' and 'Secret Affair'.
Produced with Vic Coppersmith-Heaven ( legendary former producer of 'The Jam',  the 'Turning Japanese' single by 'The Vapours', etc )
And these guys provide much more than catchy Power Pop and Mod tunes. The Q leads by example in the song writing stakes, capturing that working class edge and displaying a keen social conscience, reminiscent of early Townsend or Weller.
The first track 'Through Your Eyes' is a stomping call for empathy in the modern wold. In a cold slap of reality, 'Interlude' is the prefect example of trials of surviving in a messed up society. 'She' shows more of the band influences and after hearing the last song 'Big Issue' you..ll never look at people you pass in the street the same way again.
Including a double-sided full color inlay sheet.
First 100 copies are handnumbered and on crystal clear vinyl!

MOVING SOUNDS - GROUND SHAKER LP - SOLD OUT!

the moving sounds 01

The lp comes in laminated 135g cardbored sleeve + inlay sheet and special LP version of "about you". The LP was pressed on 140g vinyl. sleeve has another color(blue) than the cd.

The band went to famous Toe Rag Studios in London to record their 2nd album and track down another string of fantastic songs - a totally mind blowing mix of 60s garage and Scandinavian 80s garage - all flavored with groovy soul r'n'b sounds and a swirling organ!!!! After a short period of being a trio, The Moving Sounds recruited Fredrik Forsman as he is well know for his organ skills playing with bands like "Baby Snakes" and "Jim Jams" (some of his former fellows later founded the well known band "Caesars"). With Jonas Lindholm, a swedish part-time post-clerk and passionate world-traveller they found the perfect singer and a vibrant entertainer. The intention from the beginning was to play music inspired by the 60s, but not raw garage-punk as a lot of other bands influenced by that great decade. Instead, the idea was to play music with more of a mod flavour and lot of style and still kick ass with their hammond fuelled fuzzed up garage-soul. 12 tracks.
