Artist: OTHER HALF, THE
Title: The Other Half
Label: PILOT RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: PIL 6001CD
This legendary early psychedelic band are best-known for featuring the guitar wizardry of Randy Holden (who went on to join Blue Cheer and record a shattering solo LP). Based in Los Angeles, they gigged regularly in San Francisco, sharing stages with many of the city's best-known acid-rock bands throughout 1967. Their sole LP -- a mixture of singles and newer material -- appeared in March 1968, by which time Holden had departed. Brilliantly showcasing his innovative playing, it's a psychedelic classic, and is issued here complete with five bonus tracks culled from rare 45s and a French EP.

LP version. This legendary early psychedelic band are best-known for featuring the guitar wizardry of Randy Holden (who went on to join Blue Cheer and record a shattering solo LP).

Artist: FIELDS
Title: Fields
Label: PILOT RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: PIL 6002CD
This U.S. power trio's sole album appeared on both sides of the Atlantic in 1969, but sank without trace. Equally influenced by blues, soul and acid-rock, it's an enjoyable mixture of snappy hard rock songs and the lengthy "Love Is The Word" suite, which occupied a whole side of the original LP. Featuring backing vocals from Northern Soul legend Brenda Holloway and production by Merry-Go-Round guitarist Bill Rinehart, it's a must for all fans of bluesy psychedelic rock.


Artist: LAMBERT AND NUTTYCOMBE
Title: At Home
Label: PILOT RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: PIL 6003CD
Dennis Lambert and Craig Nuttycombe had been on the fringes of L.A.'s music scene for some time, including stints with bands such as the East Side Kids and the West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, when they decided to proceed as a duo. This beautifully intimate 1970 release was recorded live at the home they shared in Sausalito, California, and co-produced by David Anderle (The Doors, Love), Chad Stuart (Chad And Jeremy) and Glyn Johns (The Beatles, The Rolling Stones). A mellow collection of self-penned ballads that showcases their superb vocal harmonies and subtle guitar interplay, it has attracted a major cult following over the years. Though they gigged widely in California, Lambert's heroin addiction made it hard for them to break nationally and they parted after recording one further album in 1973.


Artist: MOLOCH
Title: Moloch
Label: PILOT RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: PIL 6004CD
Produced by Don Nix (widely-credited as a key architect of the "Memphis Sound"), this hard-hitting collection of bluesy acid-rock first appeared on Stax subsidiary Enterprise in 1970. Featuring the outstanding guitar-playing of the late Lee Baker (later to play with Alex Chilton) and the original version of "Going Down" (covered by Freddie King, Jeff Beck, JJ Cale and others), the album makes its CD debut here, complete with two rare bonus tracks, and is an essential purchase for all fans of blues-influenced rock and roll.


Artist: PARISH HALL
Title: Parish Hall
Label: PILOT RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: PIL 6005CD
This superb San Franciscan power trio only recorded one album, which stands as one of the best of its kind. Rooted in blues, its snappy, self-penned songs display a clear acid-rock influence, while avoiding excess of any sort. Though it was released in Europe and even Australia in 1970, it sank without trace, spelling the end for the band, though their reputation has been growing ever since.
