VARIOUS ARTISTS - Look At The Sun - Precious Seconds Thought Gone From The British Underground 1967-1970 + T2 EP - UK Top Sounds Limited Press - OSTATNIE SZTUKI

Under this somewhat complicated title ("Look at the sun - precious seconds thought to be irretrievable...") hides another fantastic compilation from the collectors' label Top Sounds - hitherto known for the three parts of the psychedelic series "Shapes & Sounds" (containing fantastic recordings from the BBC archives) and the compilation "Alphabeat" (containing very rare British bands ripped from super rare vinyls/acetates). The fifth title contains both BBC recordings (T2 x 2 - both unknown, including one from the same session as the three bonus tracks on the "Boomland" CD; Kaleidoscope x 2 - one unknown and one in better quality than on the BBC CD; Elastic Band with Paul McCartney's brother on vocals - unknown; Elmer Gantry's Velvet Opera x 2 - both unknown and The Fleur De Lys - unknown) and great tracks by little-known or completely forgotten groups, including the great, psychedelic, Floyd-like formation Louise (two tracks), in which played the future guitarist of the group Fuchsia and... drummer Chris Cutler - later a member of Henry Cow and owner of the label Recommended Records. Either way, for relatively little money (compared with the originals worth many thousands...) you can have a chunk of fantastic playing (67 minutes) - and what is more, wonderfully packaged (32-page booklet). Both T2 tracks are placed on a 7-inch single (at 45 RPM). It is worth knowing, though, that the CD contains two more tracks by the unknown group The Glass Opening. A MUST! THE VINYL IS OUT OF PRINT - WE HAVE THE LAST COPIES!
