Artist:	MEEK, JOE
Title:	I Hear A New World: An Outer Space Music Fantasy
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	LP
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	RPM 103LP

"Idiosyncratic, mad genius of early British R&R, producer Joe Meek is considered to be one of the most important independent producers of the early sixties. Like musical mastermind Phil Specter, Meek also developed his own production style in a similarly eccentric manner, stamping each work with an inimitable sound and making him a legend on the musical fringes. Although Meek was responsible for some mainstream R&R hits as well (The Tornadoes 'Telstar', The Honeycombs 'Have I The Right', etc.), this album, recorded in 1960, was one of Meek's more extreme projects. Essentially I Hear A New World: An Outer Space Music Fantasy was a concept album, which took as its subject matter 'life on the moon' -- with each song dedicated to one of the myriad populations that Meek suspected inhabited the moon's different regions (complete with a description of these inhabitants in the liner notes). Using clavioline, Hawaiian guitar and early electronic sound effects, Meek created futuristic sounding aural tapestries linked to a time when we still believed that the moon was populated by little green men. Released at the time as only a 4 track EP, the complete work has finally been restored and released with all 12 original tracks."

Title:	Work In Progress: The Triumph Sessions
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	2LP
Price:	$22.00
Catalog #:	RPM 121LP

"Please allow us to take our part in celebrating an artist that left this world too early to show what he could have been capable of, although we all have a pretty good idea, given the large and brilliant discography of the man. Without being able to play a single instrument, Meek was able to invent a 'sound' as a producer and sign a few late fifties British r'n'r hits (The Tornados' 'Telstar' speaks for all). These sessions feature 27 music files -- outtakes, demos and B-sides -- from the vaults of his own Triumph label (1959-1960) for an intensely pleasant retrospective of an absolute yet controversial genius."

Artist:	OTIS, SHUGGIE
Title:	In Session Information
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	LP
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 509LP

"This is the best of the sessions Shuggie Otis recorded around the same period (and in the same studio where) he cut the 1975 classic album Inspiration Information. Johnny Otis had embarked on a project to record some of the pioneers of R&B in a modern context for release on the Blues Spectrum label series. Shuggie was used as guitarist, pianist, arranger and writer. A mixture of blues, R&B, funk and soul all recorded in the same DIY lo-fi way at Hawk Sound studios between 1973 and 1977." 180 gram HQ vinyl.

Title:	Swinging London: The Accidental Genius of Saga Records
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RETRO 808CD

...1968-1970. "Primarily a classical music record label, Saga dabbled in pop music through the 1960s. Early on it made a short-lived business arrangement with Joe Meek to back and distribute his Triumph label. As the decade progressed, Saga developed a production library arm, the company also being into film production, and did record real pop artists. The tapes for the majority of these pop recordings have been squirreled away in the depths of the British Library where they were placed by the retiring owner of Saga some 15 years ago. None but the Five Day Week Straw People have been available for nigh on 40 years. Thus, Swinging London as a collection is a fascinating glimpse of the late '60s sounds mirrored through a contemporary London production house. The sounds are not clearly of any one particular genre, as they blend elements of pop, psych, lounge and rock into a late '60s groovy melange, and are all the more enjoyable for it. Vocal and instrumental, if these tracks had been released through Deram or Regal Zonophone at the time, they would not have been out of place."

Artist:	WALKER BROTHERS, THE
Title:	Images
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RETRO 827CD

"The highly impressive Images represents the final flourish of the Walker Brothers' '60s glory days. Released just before break-up in 1967, the LP created a huge impression, initially by charting at no. 6, and over time as a bearer of some excellent Scott Walker and John Maus original compositions. This package adds the two singles recorded in the same period but not released on any LP. With a new essay by David Wells, the original LP cover restored, and rare photos from the Strange Things Archive, this is an essential package for any '60s music fan."

Artist:	HIGHTOWER, ROSETTA
Title:	Hightower
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RETRO 828CD

"Following our successful reissue of the 1971 Rosetta Hightower LP from the Rediffusion vaults, we now proudly present the 1970 LP recorded for CBS, just called Hightower. Produced again by the unsung and talented arranger/producer Ian Green, this LP differs in that it contains more unique material, including three songs written by Rosetta, four by Family/Blind Faith's Rich Grech, and two by Labi Siffre. Very soulful, very powerful, very moving. We also include bonus tracks from the non-LP singles CBS released either side of the LP. All of this material is reissued for the first time, and all is first time on CD."

Artist:	GREEN, IAN
Title:	Revelation
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RETRO 829CD

"Green was a noted arranger of hit records during the '60s such as 'Where Do You Go To My Lovely' and 'Something In The Air,' and further worked with Cilla Black, Timi Yuro, Don McLean, Clodagh Rodgers as well as producing all of ex-Orlons vocalist Rosetta Hightower's solo recordings. Featuring the vocals of Rosetta Hightower and Madeline Bell, Ian Green's Revelation LP from 1969 on CBS is a tour de force. A blend of progressive pop funk (consider 'One Fine Love' an arrangement of a Bach melody by Kenny Young (as in Reperata and Clodagh producer) and Rosetta, and the choice reworking of three Lennon/McCartney songs as a medley. Some even go so far as to describe Ian Green as the UK David Axelrod. This is the first reissue for the LP, and as a bonus we have managed to also get the non LP CBS single -- all the tracks are on CD for the first time."

Artist:	PAPER BUBBLE
Title:	Scenery
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RETRO 831CD

"A great lost Hollies/Kaleidoscope/World of Oz-style orchestrated pop-sike LP. Orchestrated by Phil Denys (Bee Gees, Eclection), engineered by Tom Allom, and played on by Dave Cousins/Tony Hooper/Richard Hudson/John Ford/Rick Wakeman (then soon to be The Strawbs key line up). A 1969 Deram LP produced by Dave Cousins and Tony Hooper, here receiving its first legitimate reissue in 2008 on RPM. All songs were written by Terry Brake and Brian Crane of The Paper Bubble and the pair provided the atmospheric harmony vocals that underpin the record."

Title:	Allergic to Flowers: Garage Beat & Popsike - Part 2 1965-68
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RETRO 838CD

"Part two of the first time thematic overview of West Coast independent label Challenge Records. The label hit paydirt in early 1966 when it scored a coast-to-coast hit with The Knickerbockers outstandingly energetic rave up 'Lies.' This riff on The Beatles sound could actually have been The Beatles. Its inclusion on Lenny Kaye's Nuggets set 'Lies' in stone as a all-time classic. Allergic To Flowers: Garage Beat & Popsike celebrates this and the other nuggets that Challenge issued from 1965 to 1968. There's The Brogues paint-peeling punk rocker 'Don t Shoot Me Down' -- the band featured future members of San Francisco legends Quicksilver Messenger Service. Also heard are more irresistible, rockin' and melodic high-energy gems by The Knickerbockers, the absolutely incredible psychedelic punk of Florida band We The People, the tough-as-nails Lindy Blaskey and the Lavells and the superb psychedelic harmonies of Fenwyck's 'Mindrocker.' And then there's the folk rocking and punkish sides recorded by Gene Vincent with Glenn Campbell, as well as The Jefferson Handkerchief's hippy novelty 'I'm Allergic To Flowers.' Allergic To Flowers: Garage Beat & Popsike never lets up. Every cut is a top-drawer winner."

Title:	Sunday Sunshine: The World of SNB Records
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RETRO 842CD

"One of the movers and shakers of the music biz in the modern era has been Simon Napier Bell, and during 1968-1969 he put his talents into A&R-ing his own label. Fresh from managing The Yardbirds, Johns Children and co-authoring for Dusty Springfield, and with backing from CBS, SNB picked up on the hip pop world flowing through London at the time. It is an extraordinary assortment from which we have distilled the most potent exotic, baroque and pop psych elements. All have high production values with the likes of the talented Ian Green as arranger. As you would expect most of the singles are today very rare, and have not been reissued or released on CD. That said there is growing awareness of the music from numerous quarters, with pick up from internet radio stations to magazines, and the label has attained a cult standing. First time reissue, first time on CD. A unique 60s collection. Remastered from original CBS held SNB tapes, includes very rare singles. Essential for pop psych and similar collectors." Artists include: Jon Plum, Hubert Thomas Valverde & The HT'S, Mellow Candle, Andy Ellison, Clive Sands, Flamma Sherman, Sheila Scott Wilkinson, Sue Wilshaw, Rory Fellowes, David Blake, Nicola Davies, and Fran�oise Pascale.

Artist:	WEST, KEITH
Title:	Excerpts From... Groups & Sessions 1965-1974
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RPM 141CD

"Keith West is best remembered as the voice behind the legendary Grocer Jack single and 'Excerpt From A Teenage Opera' became a champion of both the pop charts and the '60s psychedelic lifestyle. Away from the pin-up-mags Keith also made a serious impression on the underground scene with Tomorrow and enjoyed a wonderful and varied career. This compilation charts his progress through the 1960s and into the '70s with a remarkable collection of rare and previously un-issued tracks. Ranging from Four+One, the In Crowd -- with guitarist Steve Howe (who, when they became Tomorrow, wrote two songs for the cult '60s thriller Blow Up, which appear here for the very first time) -- to both 'Teenage Opera' singles. Lavishly illustrated with a full pull-out poster-booklet, this gorgeous CD receives a keenly awaited re-press."

Artist:	MEEK, JOE
Title:	Meek's Groups - Crawdaddy Simone
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 227CD

"A follow up compilation to RPMs highly successful Joe Meeks Girls comes this round up of several important group acts on Meeks books. The most notable are the Syndicats whose single 'Crawdaddy Simone,' their last in 1966, is stupidly rare and valued at �300! Happily RPM can report that the recording on this compilation is taken from the original master tape. The track has its rarity value as an uncommon 'piece of Meek' but also in itself has a reputation for being just about the toughest freakbeat single ever -- Ray Fenwicks guitar burst in the middle seals it. RPMs series of Joe Meek collections is the way to make sense of the residual Meek archive, and this package is enhanced by comprehensive notes and pictures courtesy of long time Meek archivist Roger Dopson."

Artist:	VALENTE, DINO
Title:	Dino Valente
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RPM 289CD

"A fascinating enigma of the San Francisco psychedelic scene, Valente is most famed as the author of the song 'Get Together.' This definitive '60s love-and-peace anthem was recorded on the Jefferson Airplane's first album, and taken into the Top Ten by the Youngbloods. Valente was an original member of Quicksilver Messenger Service, and his one off solo single in 1964, a folk pop song called 'Birdses' became the inspiration for Gene Clark to name his new band the Birdses, amended of course, to the Byrds, because of his admiration for Valente's single 'In 1968,' following a spell in jail for drug possession, he got a deal with Epic Records, recording an album produced by Bob Johnston (most famous for overseeing much of Bob Dylan's classic '60s output). It was idiosyncratic even within the psychedelic community. Valente sang elliptical, stream-of-consciousness hippyisms without much in the way of narrative, beginning, or end, but with an evocative lyricism. The accompaniment is mostly stripped down guitar playing pleasingly haunting minor folk-jazz acoustic chords, swelled by wads of studio reverb. In March this year, Mojo's 67 Lost Albums You Must Own article included this album: 'On leaving Quicksilver Messenger Service after changing his name to avoid the taxman, the chemically deranged but incredibly charming Dino Valente knocked off this beautifully elongated acoustic ramble, then promptly disappeared. Emotional, aching and gloriously daft in places, its stream of lo-fi consciousness spawned generations of bedroom strumming by moody suicidal peaceniks. All a bit intense on the surface, it's wonderfully engaging even today. (DH)' RPM make this album available once with this timely re-press and in a package with an insightful essay by Nina Antonia. In the current climate of Devendra Banhart, James Yorkeston et al, Valente sounds neither out of place nor out of time."

Artist:	SOUNDS OF TOMORROW, THE
Title:	The Sounds of Tomorrow (Mood Mosaic Vol. 9)
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 300CD

"Volume 9 in our ongoing Mood Mosaic series, exploring music auteurs' work from outside the pop mainstream, presents a fascinating collection of '60s Electronica. Max Crook and Scott Ludwig are geniuses of the homegrown electronic keyboard and sound boards, today simply labelled synths. They came to prominence backing Del Shannon in the early 1960s when Max Crook and Del Shannon together wrote the singer's first demos, including 'Runaway.' A prominent feature in the backing on the recording is Crook's Musitron, an embryonic synth of his invention, and it featured again in the follow ups to Shannon's worldwide no.1 hit. Following this Crook (who also released singles under his own steam as Maximillian) and Ludwig, drummer and player of another invention the Sonicon, intermittently recorded their own material and even took it on the road. An incongruous sight, two very square looking guys appearing in supper clubs and High School auditoriums, dressed in sparkling silver jackets, surrounded by the Musitron, Sonicon and later one of the first Moogs. We present the best of their late '60s own studio recordings, the length of an LP as it might have been, plus as a special bonus an excerpt of a live show from 1968 when the pair take the audience through an explanation of their instruments' capabilities. This is Outsider Music at its most intriguing, the writer of a no.1 in 1961 single turns to Electronica to further develop their career."

Title:	Laurel Canyon
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 304CD

"The third in our reissue series, a re-release from 1968 and Jackie's favourite album of her 1960s output. Contains the hits 'The Weight' and 'Come Stay With Me' (the latter originally written by Jackie for Marianne Faithful) and her outstanding originals 'L.A.' and 'Laurel Canyon,' plus a great cover of 'Sunshine of Your Love.' Barry White is among the players on the set. Again memorabilia and photos come from Jackie's own archive, and Capitol's tape vaults have been raided for original masters. Bonus tracks from contemporary singles have also been added, including 'Put A Little Love In Your Heart,' written by Jackie and covered by many."

Title:	Those Plucking Strings
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 310CD

"Those Plucking Strings was recorded 45 years ago, but has waited until now for a release. It's a unique album, produced by Joe Meek during the period when he beginning to assert his independence. In 1960 he had set up the Triumph label as a vehicle for his productions and compositions. Although no albums were released by the short-lived imprint, two lost long players were completed: Those Plucking Strings and the legendary I Hear A New World (RPM 502). Those Plucking Stings isn't as weird as I Hear A New World, but it was a striking collaboration between Joe and his 20-year-old arranger Charles Blackwell. Blackwell was a major talent who would go on to write classic songs like Madeline Bell's 'You Don't Love Me No More' and work with Mike Sarne, PJ Proby and Francoise Hardy. Those Plucking Strings marks the earliest flowering of his flair as an arranger. Indeed, the idea of orchestrating skiffle music ran counter to the do-it-yourself tea-chest and broom-handle aesthetic that the movement was all about. Thought lost forever, a test-pressing of Those Plucking Strings surfaced in April 1997 at a north London record shop. For 30 years it had been in the hands of the daughter of Joe's ill-fated landlady Violet Shenton. This major discovery has allowed Those Plucking Strings to finally be granted the release it deserves."

Title:	An Apple a Day: More Pop Psych Sounds From the Apple Era
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 312CD

1967-1969. "94 Baker St, the Pop Psych Sounds from the Apple Era has been one of the RPM catalogue's strongest sellers in recent years. Thus with the assistance of the author of the History of the Beatles Apple Organization book, we have constructed a second volume. The Apple Music publishing company was first into battle for the new organisation, making its initial signings in mid-1967, in fact before the company even got to 94 Baker St. Over the next two years they demo'd many writers and placed recordings where possible. Inevitably given the amount recorded much remained unissued and we are happy to be able to give many of those songs a well deserved airing. Highlights include four more previously unissued Iveys tracks, the first recordings of Gallagher & Lyle, and the cult Bachdenkel who provide the title track."

"RPM is proud to present a second set of Jackie DeShannon album packages, to follow the highly successful initial set of three released in 2005. We now move into the late '60s early '70s, a time when female singer-songwriters were more accepted in the industry. A situation opened up by Jackie DeShannon during her early '60s success as a songwriter. Again each package has been lovingly re-mastered from original Capitol Studios tape masters, plus bonus tracks, and boast more exclusive photos and memorabilia from the Jackie DeShannon personal archive. Making these releases absolute must- haves for fans." Originally issued by Imperial, 1969.

Title:	Songs
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 315CD

Originally released by Capitol in1971. "In April 1971, Jackie started the sessions that would result in the Songs LP. Capitol paired her with Eric Malamud, who wanted to get an intimate, 'basement' feel; to make it sound like Jackie was jamming with her friends in her living room. Recording live in the studio with minimal overdubs gave the sessions an organic vibe. The result was an intimate, tender, homespun album which interwove subjects pastoral and spiritual with a thread of social consciousness. The laid-back, communal feel of the tracks was supplemented with subtle strings, winds and horns, conducted and arranged by Jackie's musical director and future husband Randy Edelman. Despite the album's considerable artistic merit, it failed to achieve comparable commercial success upon its release. Malamud's vision was to remake Jackie into an album-oriented artist, touring the coffee house circuit and embarking on the path of the singer-songwriter."

Artist:	DE SHANNON, JACKIE
Title:	For You
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 316CD

Originally released on Imperial in 1967. "By the time she came to record her two 1967 albums New Image and For You, Jackie DeShannon was firmly established as a singer and songwriter of distinction, with a range of music extending from folk and country to teen pop and ballads. These two albums, however, were a marked departure from what Jackie has been recording up to that point. With a mixture of standard tunes, film songs and contemporary pop, they signified a shift of emphasis toward a more adult-orientated market. This CD combines the entire For You album with similarly themed tracks from New Image -- issued several months earlier -- as bonus selections. Blending well together, both albums were produced under the guidance of Calvin Carter, previously A&R Director for Vee-Jay Records."

Artist:	POWER, DUFFY
Title:	Vampers and Champers
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	2CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RPM 320CD

"A prot�g� of the Larry Parnes rock'n'roll stable of artists in the late 1950s, Duffy broke free and discovered his own voice in the early 1960s. Embracing the jazz and blues scene of early '60s UK, Duffy recorded some highly-prized singles for Parlophone, backed by the Graham Bond Quartet. All are collected together, with his other sessions from1962-1966 period, plus the 1967 one-off EMI single, on Leapers and Sleepers. Vampers and Champers is part two of this anthology, which collects together the recordings from the rest of 1966 through to 1971, selected by Duffy as the most representative sounds of his art. After the EMI/Parlophone deal, Duffy recorded many sessions, for himself, also for Alexis Korner, and played live with Alexis Korner. Years later a number of these sessions were rounded up for compilation releases, but it wasn't until 1972 that Duffy finally achieved a complete and dedicated album released with the eponymous LP produced by Adrian Millar, released by GSF. (This will be reissued separately plus bonus tracks next spring on RPM). On disc one of Vampers and Champers we present the 1966 sessions with Danny Thompson and John McLaughlin, plus two previously unreleased songs. Disc two has the 1969 sessions (later released by the Spark label), a previously unreleased 1970 session backed by the Keith Tippett Sextet, and a pick from the aborted CBS LP project. Finally as a bonus, we have four previously unreleased tracks from the '90s and Duffy today. These are especially enticing, with Duffy's haunting vocals over stripped-down backing, such as just the harmonium on 'The Fool,' and the sax of Dick Heckstall Smith on the sublime 'Spaces.' The final two tracks are from a new album in progress, with the last a light rockabilly number that brings Duffy full circle on his musical journey."

Title:	Diamond Joe: The Sound of Meeks-ville
Label:	RPM (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	RPM 325CD

"As the infamous Tea Chest tapes continue to remain an enigma, we open up our own box of masters to discover some hitherto unissued Meek-produced recordings, plus other recordings long since unavailable. With the release timed to coincide with the general notice being given to the 40th anniversary of Meek's death (February 1967), this collection will suit those looking for something new to extend their Meek collection. The collection brings with it great examples of the Meek production sound. From Glenda Collins, Meek's best known female artist, is an unreleased version of her apocalyptic single recorded in stereo. Two of the Ray Dexter tracks are also in stereo, a rare format in the early 60s when these were made. Ray Dexter, a singer-songwriter who was busy right through the 60s with singles released on many labels, is included with four of his songs released for the first time. Backing is by the Tornados, and include his demo of 'You Took My Love For Granted,' a song he wrote and Meek recorded with John Leyton as the B-side of the international hit 'Wild Wind.' We also have the four John Carter and Ken Lewis recordings Meek produced which have been unavailable for a long time, plus real rarities from Joy and Dave, the Moontrekkers and complete unknowns Johnny Garfield, The Ramblers and Dauphine Street Six. As it says on the tin, extremely rare and collectable Joe Meek recordings."

Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	RPM 502CD

Special Edition enhanced CD featuring: original album, Joe Meek monologue, Joe Meek film clip - on CD-ROM track. "An early RPM release gets the makeover treatment to bring you a very special...special edition. Meek's highly influential album I Hear A New World, from which tracks continue to be sampled by today's pop meisters such as David Toop and Lewis Taylor, has added to it an extra 40-minute audio track, plus a bonus enhanced CD-ROM track. The audio is an interview with Meek conducted in 1962 as he takes the listener around his studio. The enhanced ROM track is the segment filmed by the World In Action team for a Granada TV documentary broadcast in the early '60s discussing influential people in popular culture at that time. The clip of Meek is approx. 3 mins in duration. The profile of Joe Meek and his recordings has risen immeasurably over the last decade. TV documentaries, book biographies, a recording equipment company named after him selling his compressors, frequent name checks and frequent press pieces on his work. I Hear A New World is a unique recording -- Meeks' vision of an outer space music fantasy has never been equalled since."
