VARIOUS ARTISTS - Think I’m Going Weird - Original Artefacts From The British Psychedelic Scene 1966-68 (5CD BOX) - UK Grapefruit Edition

The hundredth release from the Grapefruit label, and in it an overview of the British psychedelic scene! A set of five CDs containing over 50 minutes of previously unreleased music from 1966-68, including demo recordings by Tintern Abbey, Soft Machine, Mabel Greer's Toyshop, Genesis, Mandrake Paddle Steamer and Dantalian's Chariot. The artists also include such stars as The Who, Traffic, Small Faces, The Move, Procol Harum, Incredible String Band, Family, Crazy World Of Arthur Brown and Bee Gees. But perhaps the most interesting are the recordings by bands that are only now coming to light, including Eyes Of Blond, Tinsel Arcade, Crystal Ship (with lyrics by Pete Brown) and 117. Everything in a hardback, book-style cover with a 60-page, attractive booklet inside. (MU)
