GUESS 202LP
|
First ever vinyl release of the final Bronco Bullfrog album, originally released as a CD only edition in 2004. Recorded in Spain with Joe Foster (Creation, Rev-Ola Records) as co-producer and with Fausto Martín (of Spanish power-pop band The Winnerys) at the mixing desk (and also on searing 12-string Rickenbacker guitar on a couple of tracks), Oak Apple Day saw the band combining their '60s-'70s influences in a stellar way, offering a cohesive collection of brilliant pop songs: "Sunday Wheeling," "I Don't Need The Sunshine," "Mock Orange Innocence," and more! You can expect the usual doses of three-part vocal harmonies, overdriven guitars á la '70s Who, mid-'60s folk-rock, vintage power-pop, freakbeat, psychedelic-pop -- it's all here! Remastered sound. New artwork by Dan Abbott. Includes insert with liner notes and photos. RIYL: Hollies, Who, Beatles, Byrds, Gene Clark, Beach Boys, Raspberries, Move, Rubbles, Teenage Fanclub.

GUESS 201LP
|
Recorded at the now famous Liam Watson's Toe Rag Studios (White Stripes, Tame Impala, Billy Childish), The Sidelong Glances of a Pigeon Kicker was the third album by British pop-psychers Bronco Bullfrog. For a band clearly influenced by late '60s/early '70s sounds, to be surrounded by vintage sixties equipment felt like a dream. As bass player Louis Wiggett recalls: "...the general 'old school' approach lent itself to our belief (probably a desire) that we sounded like some obscure noisy pop band who'd recorded one 45 for Immediate, and then one for Deram, and then a final one for Hit-Ton Schallplatten, all within three months in late 1966." Here you'll find the classic Bronco sound (inventive songwriting, memorable hooks, three-part harmonies, hard guitars) mixed with cool studio experimentation in the best '60s style (tape phasing, piano strings played with plectrums). Including iconic songs like "Barnaby Slade", "Octopus", "Look at Me", "Sunday". Originally released by Spanish label Mushroom Pillow in 2002 and out of print for many years, here's a welcomed vinyl reissue. Original artwork; Insert with liner notes, lyrics and photos. RIYL: Kinks, Badfinger, Hollies, Who, Move, Raspberries. "... vintage sounding technicolor power-pop..." Garwood Pickjon (Popdiggers)

GUESS 199LP
|
Reissue, originally released in 1998. Formed in 1996 by Andy Morten, Mike Poulson, and Louis Wiggett, Bronco Bullfrog took their name from the 1970 British cult film of the same title. Combining their mutual love for '60s and '70s pop psych, power pop, country rock, sunshine pop, and beyond, the trio fashioned their own sound, full of loud guitars, refreshing vocal harmonies, and killer hooks. Imagine The Who circa Live At Leeds playing the Rubble songbook and you're there. Bronco Bullfrog was their magical debut, a CD only release from 1998 (although a vinyl release including a selection of tracks was also issued at the time). Now reissued for the first time on double vinyl and sequenced as originally intended by the band. Including some of their most iconic songs: "History", "Del Quant", "Greenacre Hill", "Down Angel Lane", "Together". RIYL: Who, Kinks, Move, Big Star, Byrds, Teenage Fanclub, Raspberries, Badfinger, Flying Burrito Bros., Small Faces... Gatefold sleeve with photos and liner notes; insert with photos; includes download card.
