I love my new The Feeling of Love album.  What did you get for Christmas?

I got two of my favourite albums of the year.

Nursing home by Let's Wrestle

and Veronica Falls by Veronica Falls

Also I got a shangri-las album which im still not sure about.

The Sevens were a great band from Switzerland!!! Enjoy it.

The Nuggets box is pretty bitchin', I must say.  Why did I wait so long to buy this?  There's a number of familiar tunes plus a bunch of great songs I'm hearing for the first time. You're right, it's certainly convenient to have them all collected in one place, although perhaps that takes away some of the fun of hunting down records.   I have no doubt I'll be picking up the other Nuggets box in the future.  Not to mention all the other 60's garage comps I want to get my hands on...

You scored. I don't have that Atlantic Box set , but , let's face it , "Omlette" Ertregun could have found a kickass Soul shouter at a RAVE.  GOES W/O SAYING , THEY DID A REALLY SWEET JOB ON BOTH "NUGGETS" SETS. I MIGHT HAVE ADDED OR TAKEN AWAY TWO OR THREE SONGS , BUT , WHO CARES? It was my sincere hope that this'd turn more younger people on to 60's Garage and Psych , when a College student asked me if I recommended the first one. I could have said , "If you have to ask...." , but , instead , I told him , you guys are so lucky you can get a collection like this , today. When I was his age , you could find a lot of those songs , but , only song by song and album by album , often with crappy sound and more filler than we'd prefer. But , I'm not meeting many people that are into this music at all , except  here at The Hideout. It's funny , when "Kicks" was in full swing , and The Cramps came thru ever few years , and we had Wax Trax Records here in Chicago (The store , not the label.), I met people like some of you , all the time.

I got not one, but two Rhino Records boxed sets:  NUGGETS (amazing!) and the eight-volume Atlantic R&B 1947-74 boxed set (haven't listened yet, but with Otis Redding, Laverne Baker, Solomon Burke et al. you can't really go wrong).

Slow Xmas for vinyl this year!

Seriously?  I have only seen that record in one store and it was super expensive.  I am so jealous.
