About This Item
UK collection. Distorted guitars, wailing saxophones, weird keyboard breaks, the sound of alien spacecraft, buzzsaws and revving engines all feature on this 26 track collection of instrumental masterpieces. From rare and obscure sounds spliced with screams and thunder through to classic grooves by Cozy Cole, Link Wray and Duane Eddy, this set celebrates the genius of Rock 'n' Roll as spun on Lux Interior's Purple Knife Show. Dueling guitars and one liners on switchblades and pick-ups add to the sleazy vibe that emanate on this hour long set. Featuring vintage, exotic riffs, ear-bending special effects and some of the twangiest guitars ever. Transport yourself to the jukebox at any early '60s Vegas dive. Album Tracks 1.
