Various Artists - Brown Acid - The Nineteenth Trip (Various Artists) - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2 CD set in an elegant, book-like package. Sacred and secular music from one of Britain's greatest historic and artistic periods. This collection of music features some of the greatest English composers of the age, including the royal composers Henry VI and Henry VIII, along with their court and chapel musicians. Choral tracks are sung by Magdala, Oxford's leading mixed-voice choir, directed by Dr David Skinner, or by the Oxford Girls' Choir.

The forthcoming ninth edition of the popular compilation series featuring long-lost vintage '60s-'70s proto-metal and stoner rock singles, Brown Acid - The Ninth Trip is set for ! Some of the best thrills of the Internet music revolution are the ability to find extremely rare music with great ease. But even with such vast archives to draw from, quite a lot of great songs have gone undiscovered for nearly half a century-particularly in genres that lacked hifalutin arty pretense. Previously, only the most extremely dedicated and passionate record collectors had the stamina and prowess to hunt down long forgotten wonders in dusty record bins-often hoarding them in private collections, or selling at ridiculous collector's prices. Legendary compilations like Nuggets, Pebbles, ad nauseum, have exhausted the mines of early garage rock and proto-punk, keeping alive a large cross-section of underground ephemera. However, few have delved into and expertly archived the wealth of proto-metal, pre-stoner rock tracks collected on Brown Acid.InchWill do for hard rock, proto-metal and heavy psych what Nuggets did for garage rock, and bring it to a wider audience of collectors and music fans.Inch -The Guardian InchSo rare that diehard fuzz junkies say you'd have a better chance of winning the lottery than finding a physical 45 RPM single by one of the bands featured on their latest installment.Inch -Dangerous Minds

That's right, Riding Easy has reached a toker's dozen editions of brilliant long-lost, rare, and unreleased hard rock, heavy psych, and proto-metal tracks from the '60s - '70s. Clearly this has become a bonafide archaeological movement as each new installment leads the listener to more exciting new discoveries. Like the tag has done throughout this series, all of these tracks were painstakingly licensed legitimately and the artists were paid. Make oneself comfortable and prepare for yet another deep, deep dive into the treasure trove of dank, subterranean, wild-eyed and hairy rock 'n' roll with Brown Acid - The Twelfth Trip.Here are some examples of the treasures that lie herein The Waters start this Trip off right with swampy fuzz- and phaser-soaked dueling guitars oozing from the grooves of their 1969 single InchMother Samwell.Inch The Louisville, KY trio somehow failed to make much of a splash however, only issuing two 45s, one in '68 and this rocker the following year, before eventually evaporating in '72. The bassist went on to play in Hank Williams Jr.'s band for a couple of decades, so the band's fortunes weren't entirely sunken.Side two opens with Ace Song Service, who probably thought they were pretty clever with their risqué acronym name, but it's their b-side InchPersuasionInch that really kicks A.S.S. Rollicking, relentless drums, walking bass, staggering guitars and shimmering Hammond organ shake the foundations while crooning blue-eyed soul vocals remind the listener that this is still the late-60s. The Trip concludes with Dickens, whose InchSho' Need LoveInch / InchDon't Talk About My MusicInch 45 is one of those record collector's Holy Grail type of releases. The 1971 single only exists as a demo, printed as a white tag promo pressing for Scepter Records. Comprised of NRBQ's road crew and some band members, all playing instruments they didn't know how
