On The Brink is a brand new collection of 20 previously uncomped and absolutely superb UK instrumentals from the '60s and early '70s, assembled by legendary psych musician and Psychic Circle label-head, Nick Saloman (The Bevis Frond). Presenting session men discovering sitars, orchestras getting into the freaky side of things, hip theme tunes, Hammonds, fuzz and brass. Somehow sophisticated and cheesy simultaneously, these acts created their own musical world of Chelsea apartments, mini-mokes, dark velvet bespoke tailoring and the dolliest birds this side of Battersea Bridge. Welcome to the soundtrack of your own unmade Swinging London movie. Artists include: Mike Vickers, The Jim Sullivan Sound, The Shock Absorbers, Wynder K. Frog, Rita, Offside, The Les Reed Orchestra, David Smith, The Keith Mansfield Orchestra, The Dave Davani Four, The Fidd, Ken Woodman's Piccadilly Brass, The John Schroeder Orchestra, Trax Four, The Mike Cotton Sound, Lee Mason and his Orchestra, The Vic Flick Sound, The Chris Barber Soul Band, Brian Bennett and Stanley Myers.
