Tale Spin is a delightfully melodic and nuanced collection of psych-tinged acoustic pop, written and recorded in the depths of the English countryside, and sure to appeal to fans of acts such as Devendra Banhart, Joanna Newsom and Espers as well as older names such as the Incredible String Band, COB and Vashti Bunyan.

Artist: SOUTHERN COMFORT
Title: Southern Comfort
Label: SUNBEAM RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: SBR 5014CD
Big Walter Horton (also known as Walter "Shakey" Horton) is one of the most legendary Chicago blues harmonica players of all time, and a pioneer in the field of amplified harmonica. Recorded in the UK in 1968, and released in 1969, Southern Comfort is a superb showcase for his talents, as well as those of bassist Jerome Arnold (the Butterfield Blues Band), drummer Jessie C. Lewis (Otis Rush) and trailblazing guitarist Martin Stone (Savoy Brown and Mighty Baby). Though mostly a superb blues set, it's best-known today for the epic closing track -- one of the most mind-blowing psychedelic workouts ever recorded.


Artist: JONES, WIZZ
Title: The Legendary Me
Label: SUNBEAM RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: SBR 5015CD
Long prayed-for reissue of this classic 1970 UK folk stunner that's a missing link both in the Wizz Jones oeuvre and in the guitar-freedom music of the prime era. The Legendary Me was Wizz Jones' second studio album, originally released by the obscure but vital Village Thing label (following his self-titled debut on United Artists). Cosmically figuring somewhere between the non-trad radical expressions of the Mike Cooper/Roy Harper axis and Clive Palmer's post-ISB journey, Jones' terrestrial position finds him alongside Davy Graham, Shirley Collins & Palmer at the dawn of '60s UK freedom. Under-recorded until the late '60s, The Legendary Me has been impossible to find since release. It fits snuggly next to his other classic, Right Now, released a year later on Columbia. If you've ever wished John Renbourn was twice as good or thought Bert Jansch was too uptight, then this is your cup of meat. Remastered the way you've come to expect from Sunbeam -- at Abbey Road from the original tapes -- this perfect product includes three killer bonus tracks (including a Leonard Cohen cover that doesn't suck and the master's take on Jansch's "Needle of Death"), liner notes, and cool vintage photos. --Kris Price

Title: Mouseproof
Label: SUNBEAM RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: SBR 5016CD
One of the most unconventional albums ever recorded, this avant-garde psychedelic suite contains elements of folk, jazz, rock and electronica, but has a sound and atmosphere all of its own. Recorded in 1970, but barely released (despite the enthusiastic support of John Peel), original copies now sell for astronomical sums. Guest performers include Judy Dyble (Fairport Convention), Rik Kenton (Roxy Music) and Geoff Leigh (Gong, Kevin Ayers, Henry Cow). This is its long-awaited debut on CD, and comes complete with comprehensive liner notes and rare photographs.

Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: SBR 5017CD
As co-author of some of the world's most famous musicals, Tim Rice needs no introduction to music lovers.

During this time Tim produced singles by an array of '60s artists, encompassing everything from harmony pop and girlie ballads to funk, freakbeat and psychedelic rock. The best of them are collected here for the first time, along with rare photographs and extensive liner notes from Tim himself, making this collection a treat for all fans of unsung '60s music.


Artist: FREE SPIRITS, THE
Title: Out of Sight and Sound
Label: SUNBEAM RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: SBR 5018CD
Way ahead of its time, The Free Spirits' radical 1967 album Out of Sight and Sound has never previously been available on CD. Co-founded by the young and future jazz-rock guitar legend Larry Coryell, who made his recording debut here, the band was only together briefly but dazzled all who heard them (including Jimi Hendrix, The Doors and The Velvet Underground) with their revolutionary brand of psychedelic jazz-rock. One highlight includes "Blue Water Mother," a song which employs the oft-unheard sound of two separate vocal tracks singing two entirely separate sets of lyrics. One of the first fusions of jazz and rock, this early experiment in sound will appeal to fans of straight-up heavy '60s jams as well. This package comes complete with a rare non-LP bonus track, as well as previously unseen photos and detailed liner notes by Richie Unterberger.

Artist: DAWNWIND
Title: Looking Back On the Future
Label: SUNBEAM RECORDS (UK)
Format: CD
Price: $15.50
Catalog #: SBR 5022CD
UK-based Jon Harflett and John Perkins began playing together in 1967, but their sole album, the beautifully melodic and intimate Looking Back On The Future, didn't appear until 1975. Though critically praised, it was only issued as a private pressing and was thus condemned to obscurity until its legend began to grow through collectors and bootleggers. This is its first official issue, and comes complete with rare photographs, bonus tracks and detailed liner notes by the duo, making it an essential purchase for all lovers of acid folk.
       
       
       
       "Former bootleg and very worthy slice of later UK folk heaven, Dawnwind's lone LP has been done up real righteous by your friends at Sunbeam. A British counterpart to Spain's Book of Am, America's Trees, and Scotland's Caedmon in the splintered, post-Nam, last-gasp class of debuts that graduated the free world's folk revival into oblivion, the perfectly titled Looking Back on the Future was released to a fleeting audience in '76. Always the opening act, never the stars, the duo of Jon Harflett and John Perkins crawled up the mountain together for nearly ten years before making an LP of their very own. As the scene died, the duet recorded a sentimental, celebratory, and defiant solemnization of Greenwich Village, acid-nonviolence, Dylan's harmonica, and freedom busking that, like the best long-awaited debuts, displays striking self-discovery and fully honed vision. While the surreal opener 'Don't Look Now, Karen's Gone to the Moon' is an anachronistic spoon-June folk-psych stunner that stands as one of the select sputniks of the era, their haunting Simon & Garfunkel-style take on John Prine's 'Sam Stone' will bring you all back home. It's not clear if the master tapes survived on this one, but you can trust that Sunbeam's work is peerlessly culled from the finest depots, having filled up the product with the usual exemplary Abbey Road mastering, bonus tracks, original artwork, photos, liners, & legitimacy. Have one." -- Kris Price.

Featuring the recording debut of Big Star's Chris Bell, this outrageously enjoyable blend of psychedelic rock, Memphis soul and dirty R&B kicks off with one of the most audacious and successful Beatles covers ever.

Jones, Eddie Floyd, Al Green, Otis Redding, The Boxtops, Percy Sledge, The Staple Singers, Mississippi John Hurt, etc.) he became the Ardent Studios engineer/producer, and co-owner of the Ardent Records label that released the Big Star albums. Originally released on Stax's Enterprise label, this record is Manning's only solo work (he engineered, produced, and played almost all of the instruments) and features a feast of fuzz guitar, sweet vocals and funky rhythms that makes its long overdue CD debut here (complete with full liner notes and three bonus tracks), Home Sweet Home is a tongue-in-cheek blast from start to finish, and guaranteed to thrill fans.

Blossom Toes are well established as one of the UK's best-loved '60s psych bands, and this double CD set captures them at the height of their powers. CD1 was recorded live in Stockholm's Filip Club on August 26th 1967, just after they'd completed their classic debut, We Are Ever So Clean. It finds the band poised between that album's cheery pop-psych and the dense progressive psychedelia of its follow-up, 1969's If Only For A Moment. Previously available only as an incomplete bootleg, it is mastered from original tapes supplied by the engineer who recorded it, Anders Lind. CD2 kicks off with two rare tracks from 1967 radio sessions, then continues with two cuts apiece from the band's appearances at 1969's Amougies and Bilzen festivals -- the latter boasting a guest appearance from none other than Frank Zappa. The set comes complete with a full booklet including rare photos and an introduction from the band's leader, Brian Godding, making it essential for all fans of British psychedelia.

It's presented here together with a plethora of non-LP 45s and previously-unheard demos, as well as a booklet featuring rare photographs, historical liner notes and personal memoirs from Meic Stevens and Farr's long-term partner, Carinthia West.

Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: SBR 5062CD
Formed from the ashes of beat band The Hellions in 1966, the short-lived Deep Feeling were one of the most adventurous bands of their time. Featuring Jim Capaldi (Traffic), Poli Palmer (Family), Luther Grosvenor (Mott The Hoople), Gordon Jackson (later to make a classic solo LP) and Dave Meredith, they wowed London audiences with their audacious brand of exotic proto-psychedelia, even backing Jimi Hendrix at his first UK gig. Tragically, however, Capaldi departed to form Traffic during the sessions for their debut (produced by former Yardbirds and Rolling Stones manager Giorgio Gomelsky), and the tapes were shelved -- until now. The remarkable tracks make their first-ever appearance here, together with demos made by Palmer and Jackson in 1967 and a song featuring the duo backed by the Blossom Toes, and come with a packed booklet including detailed notes and rare photographs.
