I see this collection is available,the first 3 in this series were excellent so this compilation has a lot to live up too!!

Comilation.of heavy psych, pop psych and sunshine pop from New Zealand's psyche­delic scene 1966 - 1972. A Day In My Mind's Mind Volume 4 soars the sonic heights from the heavier side of the Kiwi psychedelic scene before descending into the valley of pop psych and sunshine pop. Like the first three volumes the psych underground scene is explored with landmark recordings and unreleased tracks while paying homage to all involved with extensive liner notes...the stories behind the music are just as colourful as the music itself. 27 tracks in all, including contributions from The Avengers, The Brew, Sebastian's Floral Array, Tom Thumb, The New Zealand Trading Company, The Underdogs, Lew Pryme and many more.

Thanks Stuart, I'll have that! Loved the other three as you say. Seeing a listng for the 'New Zealand Trading Company' takes me back to the early days of the RZ notice board when CDR trading was making all kinds of unheard rarities possible to hear that that we take for granted now in the download age and with so many reissues since. I seem to recall that the NZTC were said not to be actually from NZ, but the USA! Clearly that would seem to be wrong.

I enjoy the two NZ/Oz comps on Particles as well, so this is a nice addition to that cannon I can see we're into the 70s on this 4th volume from some of the artists. There was some good Kiwi music in that early-mid 70s period.

A good teaser selection on Youtube for this comp as well

Great to see the Ray Wolf & The Avengers tune on here, I got a reissue 45 of that a year or more ago (unissued originally I think?).

BTW Stuart, where did you see it advertised / get the track listing from? I can't find it outside of NZ esxcept via Smoke CDs in NZ on Amazon UK (at nearly £14). I'm sure I bought the other three at around a tenner each but can't remember where / who from!

Have the other three so will look out for this.
Didn't realise Hayden Wood were fro NZ.

Superb!!
Loved the others vols...above average series methinks!
My first vol was from Heyday Paul, I think it was £10.99 but that must
be about 7 years ago now...
Thanx Stuart

Some really good stuff on there, but I must admit I'm put off slightly by the fact that at least a third of the CD consists of cover versions.

I just ordered this 2LP version which is out now in a limited edition of 500 copies. I guess it's just a 'best of' the CD volumes, but it looks very nice, and I just couldn't resist...

Yes, looks like a best of the series, but nice to have on vinyl like that. Judging by the blurb, it would seem to be specifically made for the Real Groovy company as well, so even more special, nice! I ordered the CD of Vol.4 on Monday on Amazon from Smoke Records in NZ. Not used them before but they seem to be a pretty regular Amazon UK MPS presence.
