Great compilation...... would love to see more "forgotten" mid-late '60s lists!

 

Whenever I see any of those Dad Rocks! or Songbirds type 2CD compilation sets on supermarket shelves, I always think I could compile a better album than this, or at least one that dug a little deeper, so here for your further delectation are a couple of playlists I made that would fit the bill…

I made this for a good friend's 12 year old daughter who had been exploring her mom's small collection and who, when they come to town, explores the record shop I work for.
It's a card sleeve, printed front and back. It also says "Play Loud" in Schulz' Peanuts writing on the spine. Inside are 4 paper sleeves.
She loved it!

Fronts:


Backs:

 

I love it! That is awesome!

 

This is what the self-titled Best Of should have probably been. Great idea to compile all the singles together.

 

Yeah. Aside from the new track, the best-of was a disappointment. They absolutely could have thrown in a few more tracks, including some rarities. I understand not including "I Hate Myself and Want to Die," but "Sappy" would have been a more-than-welcome inclusion.

Not recent but I was proud of my home recordings of the John Peel Show from 1979 to approx 1984. I had about twenty C90 cassettes that were played frequently. Being BASF cassettes they eventually started squealing and I trashed them. During the 90s etc I replaced my many of the recording with CDs. The studio sessions were particularly good, often better than the LPs!

Rowing and Head Down are two of my faves missing here, nice selection.

 

"Head Down" almost made the cut, but I decided I had way too many Superunknown tracks already. I may get rid of "The Telephantasm" if I decide to take another crack at it and I'll see if that gives me room for "Rowing."

 

Superunkown is impossible to wittle down, not a dud to be found!
