MR. AIRPLANE MAN - MR. AIRPLANE MAN
Mr. Airplane Man was a Boston duo, Margaret Garrett (guitar, vocals) and Tara McManus (drums, keyboards), who have been playing since 1996. They named themselves after a Howlin' Wolf song. Friends since grade school, their obsession with rock and roll and blues music inspired the band. They began playing on the street and by 1999 they were voted Best New Local Act by readers of the Boston Phoenix. Margaret and Tara have created a unique niche for themselves, a raw and real hypnotic, mesmerizing sound that borrows equally from blues icons like Howlin' Wolf and proto-garage bands like Boston's The Lyres. They quickly won a whole string of heavyweight admirers, from Morphine's late Mark Sandman, who taught Margaret how to play guitar to Greg Cartwright of the Oblivians and the Reigning Sound. They released during first mid-2000s three full-length album on Sympathy for the Record Industry and played with bands like the White Stripes and the Strokes. John Peel discovered them and had them do several sessions. They toured all around America and Europe. Mr Airplane Man's story ended up in 2006. This album is a witness of their early days as a band. It captures their very first studio experience and the very deep and true essence of what Mr Airplane Man became later on. Partly produced and recorded by Mark Sandman. Originally self-released in 1998 on CD by the band, it had to wait 15 years to finally be released on a proper vinyl. One time 1000 copies pressing. Silk-screened cover on tobacco cardboard.

FARRAR, BRAT - BURN EVERYTHING DOWN
Farrar comes rumbling out of a Melbourne bedroom with tunes that move from new wave garage through to noisy grunge and industrial tinged punk. Leaving behind his previous life as frontman of well-respected Down Under garage-punk acts such as DIGGER AND THE PUSSYCATS and KAMIKAZE TRIO, Farrar has been reborn and has become a one-man all singing all dancing, new wave machine. This 7-incher is limited to 300 copies.
LA LUZ - BRAINWASH
Featuring ex-members of K Records' psych rockers the Curious Mystery, La Luz conjures images of beehived ladies singing sweetly on grainy black-&-white television. The immaculate four-part harmonies, the luscious layers of reverb, the occasional choreographed dance move, even the band's penchant for oldies-style artwork, La Luz have got it all!
LAME DRIVERS/WOOLEN MEN - SPLIT 7"
A split of garage-tinged and warped power pop, inspired by free form radio, psychedelia, classic punk and Guided By Voices. LAME DRIVERS spent much of the past decade in the basement while also playing in other bands like HOME BLITZ and GET HIM EAT HIM. Their side of the EP features two songs that are very different from each other. THE WOOLEN MEN are two Oregon natives and a Washingtonian. They play punk influenced DIY music in the Pacific North-West tradition of Dead Moon and Wipers. They also recorded a cover of the Terminals' 'Frozen Car'.

TRASHIES - TEENAGE RATTLESNAKES
A lot goes into the rattle of Teenage Rattlesnakes. In wading through the gunk, you'll hear psychedelic garage moderne, far enough removed from their domestic contemporaries to be mistaken for Euro gang-chanters conducting a tribal punk seance. Moments of severe stomp and circus tomfoolery recall the frenzied Avant Garde Rock'n'Roll of The Monks, with further irritants injected to make it all the more jarring. Limited to 500 copies on trash coloured vinyl.

JAY-JAYS - JAY-JAYS
At the end of 1965, four members of The Hagues popular Jumping Jewels dumped their manager and struck out on their own as the Jay-Jays. With the name change came a new musical direction, a pent-up beat music sound inspired by the Beatles, the Who and, especially, the Kinks. Their first single, Bald Headed Woman, was a Top 10 smash. The Jay-Jays most impressive recordings were all released within the span of one tumultuous, action-packed year: 1966. Their self-titled album included such Dutch beat gems as Come Back If You Dare, I Keep Tryin, Today Im Gay and the fuzz-packed instrumental Cruncher. Every one of those jumping 66 jewels can be heard on this twelve-inch platter, remastered in dynamic mono sound, each sounding louder, more vibrant, and more crunch-filled than ever before. The album is supplemented by three non-LP single sides, and a previously unreleased instrumental demo version of Are You A Woman. The package includes full liner notes by Mike Stax of Ugly Things magazine. Music Style: Beat, Mod. Exclusively restored dynamic 24 bit remastering from the original master tapes.

OUTSIDERS - MONKEY ON YOUR BACK: THE 45'S (2LP)
The Netherlands boasted a fertile beat scene in the 1960s, but few bands could match the greatness of the Outsiders from Amsterdam. Led by the uniquely gifted songwriting team of singer Wally Tax and guitarist Ronnie Splinter, The Outsiders left behind a prolific catalog of original music that easily matches up to the best the UK or the USA had to offer during the same period. The evidence is all here on Monkey On Your Back: Their 45s, a two-disc 180gm vinyl collection featuring the original mono A- and B-sides of all of their singles from the crazed punk R&B of 1965s You Mistreat Me to 1969s infectious Do You Feel Allright (once described by Wally Tax as "like cowboys sitting on space rockets"). Their biggest hits are all here, including Lying All The Time, Touch, Monkey On Your Back and Summer Is Here, alongside favorites like Suns Going Down, I Love Her Still, I Always Will, That's Your Problem and You Remind Me. A handful of rarities and unreleased tracks round out the set, including Talk To Me, a demo of Monkey On Your Back, and stereo versions of Touch and Bird In A Cage. The eye-popping gatefold cover lays out all of the original picture sleeve artwork along with other rare shots. Original single versions! 2LP black 180 gram vinyl, 350 gram carton gatefold sleeve. Inside the gatefold sleeve, all single covers artwork and rare pressings! Japanse plastic bag REMASTERED IN THE 24-BIT DOMAIN FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES Tracks: Chapter 1 1.

VARIOUS - SEDAYEH DEL (2LP)
Khosh Amadid, friends, to this 4th volume in a series of compilations highlighting fiercely rare 45s from Tehran's pre-revolutionary golden age. Vivacious ladies with sassy Dorothy Hamill haircuts and skin-bearing pantsuits were once plastered across Tehran's newsstands. Those gorgeous sirens and their hunky male counterparts made all the teens sway to hand drums that boinked in 6/8 time. Plush brass & string arrangements took their cues from Latin grooves, psychedelic guitars, ritzy soundtracks, and sugary pop from the West. Within months of the 1979 Islamic revolution, pop music was labeled a symbol of the previous regime and became illegal overnight. In those same months, it also became illegal for women to be in public without conforming to the hijab dress code. By hook and crook, these little round records survived, and they attest to a time when Tehran's homegrown and exiled populations would have been united in an easygoing love for funk bass & buzzing synthesizers. Hear the tunes that rivaled the hits of Googoosh & Kourosh by singers who only recorded a few precious singles, but dont think for a minute that Tehran's nightingales have run out of surprises for your ears. The discoveries are just beginning. Tracks: 01 ZIA - Helelyos 02 FARROKHZAD - Avazekhan Na Avaz 03 SHOHREH - Del 04 SHAMAIZADEH - Agar Bekhai Mitooni 05 NOOSHAFARIN - Gole Aftabgardoon 06 ZIA - Kermani 07 AZITA - Yaare Chaghalo 08 SHAHROKH - Koolehbaar 09 SHAMAIZADEH - Be Man Tekyeh Kon 10 BETI - Hele Dan Dan 11 AZITA - Baba Heydar 12 SATTAR - Sedayeh Del 13 SOLI Feat.
