V.A. / ALGO SALVAJE VOLUME 2 CD
Price: £13.99
Due 11/03...The eagerly awaited second volume of the "Algo salvaje" series, featuring untamed 1960s beat and garage nuggets from Spain.
"Algo salvaje" (translates as 'something wild') is the first legal anthology devoted to a rich period when hundreds of bands appeared all over Spain and, after paying attention to what their US and British contemporaries were doing, found their own way to vent their teenage rebellion through loud guitars. With amazing results!
Many of the 28 tracks are reissued for the first time, including very hard-to-find records.
Both formats include extensive notes by Vicente Fabuel featuring all the original record sleeves and artist photos.
A festival of raw beats, direct and aggressive, mixed with understandable stylistic digressions, given the psychedelic transformation at the time.
All are identifying marks of this second volume, a collection that should legitimize the Spanish garage-beat scene as one of the great musical (and social) offerings from a country that was stretching its limbs as much as it possibly could despite the restricting bonds of dictatorship.
