Artist:	TWINK
Title:	Think Pink
Label:	AKARMA (ITALY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	AK 064CD

"Originally released in 1970 on Polydor. This is a wild classic of British psychedelia featuring various members of the Deviants." Previously bootlegged by SPM in Germany, this version's been licensed direct from the Belgian shoe salesman, John "Twink" Alder himself. Not to imply that original master tapes or cover films were used, but this is probably as close to legit issue as you're going to get on this album. Contains the all-time classic sludge-dunt classic "Ten Thousand Words In a Cardboard Box".

Title:	The Lost Experimental Recordings 1970
Label:	GET BACK (ITALY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.50
Catalog #:	GET 572 CD

"16 tracks recorded at London Wizard Studios, Hornsey, London (very late 1969 and early 1970). Remixed and remastered at Westwood Studios in Los Angeles in 1999. The words and music are by Twink." This is a series of recordings compiled from a winter's worth of unreleased sessions recorded in hashish blur. Twink's liner notes indicate that he never thought twice about them, but engineer Julian Briggs recently contacted him and reminded him of these events, and now extracts can be heard for the first time. The results are some of the most extreme & outside music that has been released in association with Mr. Twink's, looping noise jamdom and excess, plus some psychedelic foppery in a Tolkien-inspired mode. It's hard to believe Twink really "forgot" about this stuff considering the discography of junk he's remembered to reissue, and you might wonder if a bit more than mixing & mastering occurred in 1999. But either way, this is one of the guy's all time highlights in the universe of recorded sound, so make you you say "thanks" the next time you attempt to stick a flower in one of his ears.
