Swinging City Soundscape (a swinging 60s comp that tops RPM’s 'Swinging London' Saga records anthology)

Don't frget Pink Moon's 'Glamish Rockish' comp (and possibly anoher one? Are you still with us P Moon?)

There was also a comp of interesting looking light pop that never got put out, only the track listing was put out on RZ. Old lags like myself will recall - one had to submit a reason why they thought they deserved a copy to get one! The (anonymous?) compiler went sick I beleive and it never surfaced.

PM

um Dream weavers is a classic must dig my copy out..

Hi Paul,Now that youve mentioned those collections,i do remember them all,i must say one of the most interesting out of all those is "Dreamweavers"an original idea by yourself and some killer cuts to be had by the crooners etc who were part of dreamweavers!!I remember it like it was yesterday Paul,and that wasn't......emmm....yesterday.

Glad to know Dream Weavers is still remembered! Pink Moon did another comp on RZ as well, 'Someone's Digging Under The Ground Vol.1' which preceeded the Sanctuary comp of a similar name.

PM

i put them all on my i pod.when i power walk i can get into them as most have songs i do not know.

has anyone uploaded DIGGING UNDERGROUND?i seemed to have missed this one paul you had russisn looking one but cannot remember name

Looks like there's many I've missed aswell.

Anyone remember this?

http://medlem.spray.se/humanoidboogie/rz/

Can anyone tell me what the different U Spaces comps were called?

The Russian one was 'Drawing The Curtain' (with lenin's head and a smiley on it). I have Digging Underground somewhere, will see if I can ermm... 'dig it up'!

P

Nice idea to list up and tree out all the RZ freebie comps. I ddi a few artist antholigies as well:

1. Magical Spiel: The Unreissued Paul & Barry Ryan – A Sampler

2. Smokey & His Sister – S/T LP + Singles 19 tracks in all, all from 1967.

3. The Great Raft Race: Saturday’s Photograph and Silverman (OST 1970, 12 songs) + six sides of the three Saturday’s Photograph singles. Great California soft pop 1969-70

4. Schadel - Schadeldelic– LP No.1 + singles 1966-70, 12 track LP (1970), 8 x 45 sides 1966-70, + 1 unreleased (1968)

I should say 90% of the stuff on the Paul & Barry Ryan sampler has since been officially reissued - none of the others have.

PM

Those Cali Love-In comps are tremendous, highly recommended,you can tell a lot of love and thought has been put into those collections,a real mixed brew of psych and pop amongst other oddities.

Hello, I've been getting into 60s psych and garage lately. For example, I joined the U-Spaces group at Yahoo! and downloaded a bunch of their first rate compilations. I read about the Regal Zonophone comps in old issues of Sweet Floral Albion, and I'd be interested in knowing how to contact someone to obtain any RZ comps, such as Dreamweavers or Drawing the Curtain.

I found one Web site for a man named Ian that directed to this forum, but the site this link was on, phils60s70s.eamped.com, is now dead. If anyone can tell me how to obtain RZ comps, please let me know. I have some other psych collections in MP3 form as well.

Currently I'm interested in most of the RZ compilations and the 12 volumes of Oceanic Odyssey. If anyone can help, please email me.

Hi, is there a way to find these comps? I found only pop cycles and oceanic odyssey via soulseek. Can someone reupload the best ones? Sorry for english.

I now have most of the comps you're looking for. Please let me know what you want, and I can post them to some file sharing sites where I am a member. And don't worry about your English -- you speak it a lot better than some natives.

Paul's comps are always classic but Phillippe did another French one (I'll dig it out) (Pompidolian Pop?)
and Sylvain's Psychodelicias'ss are great But has anyone relistened to Paul martin's efforts recently???? My faves are "Drawing the( Iron) Curtain" & "Pop Cycles 1" Cheers Paul and all your comps are in the collection

Thanks for that Graham, glad you're still enjoying them!

Paul

I discover so much music courtesy of you guys. And big special thanks to Paul Martin for all.

Thanks for your kind words Philippe, I have learned about a lot of good French music from you as well.

Paul

Hello Gian, nice to know you are still out there, hope all is well with you.

Paul

^^^^

Thanks, Philippe!

Yeh theres been a hell of a lot of good music came from this forum,but i'm concerned about the decline in the numbers of folk who actually take part in discussion these days,i know the kind soul who so kindly moderates and actually pays to keep this discussion group going,i just wish a small contingent of the people who are actually looking and reading the posts but dont leave any feedback or comments would make it a lot more interesting with a lot more points of view and will keep the discussions from going stale.This is my fave discussion group and has been for many years and ive met some real lovely and kind souls who did take part on here and some who still do,it says a lot that RZ has lasted while others have unfortunately fallen by the wayside.Am i the only one who is a bit concerned that its the same handful of people who instigate posts and discussions,i know from the numbers that read the posts some posts are being viewed more than 200 times.Where are all those people?But at least that DOES show that folks are still interested in whats being said here which is a great thing indeed!!I know i've not instigated many discussions lately,but unfortunately due to ill health in the family and dealing with my own demons,i've just not mustered up anything.Well i''ve wrote this..............lol.......anyone else wish more people would take part?Long Live RZ!!

Hi lm constantly looking in on RZ time to open the door and join in.

Hi Elliot,welcome to the psych,prog and pop world(or anything else you want to discuss) of Regal Zonophone.There really is a bunch of good folk on here,i hope you enjoy reading the stuff and be great if you wanted to post!!Thanks.

Agree with you Stuart. Postings are definitely down and as much as JJ and Wallace annoyed some people and at times went over the top, their banter was usually quite good to read.
Phil also has not posted for awhile, so it's always good to have a newbie on board. Welcome and fire away Elliott.

Hello Elliot, glad you have 'outed' yourself here! Please feel free to add your twopence worth on any or all subjects and indeed instigate your own posts. I think at this time of year people are on holiday, I've just come back after a week - Summer lull and all that. As Stuart says, it is interesting how many 'hits' some posts get in relation to the number of actual responses. Maybe it's just posters checking for updates? No, there's more lurkers out there I am sure. I also offer my thanks to whoever it is that is moderating when needed - is there an actual charge for the Bravenet site? If so even bigger thanks!

Paul

I doff my hat and bow low to you sir! Whatever the messaging 'weather' is like on here, I learn stuff and find music I've not heard before and am the richer for it, so thank you for helping to faciltiate that. I think everyone who uses this site will endorse that semntiment too.

Paul

Certainly do Paul. Many thanks CC.

Hi Paul.
I'm a bit in the dark here.I've been looking all over trying to buy, borrow or steal yer Pop Cycles.
Only google results I could find led me to this forum.
A friend of mine, who I've since lost touch with gave me the 1st two vols and a copy of Soft Wax.
I'd like to get a hold of the others and since scrolling down here,lots of other goodies have caught my eye - Oceanic Odyssey and recently I've been trying to find reissued Paul and Barry Ryan on CD but it's all out of print and going for a fortune on e-bay.
I don't know if you'll see this but it's worth a pop.
Re your depleting numbers, I certainly would enjoy joining in here from time to time.
Cheers for now
Stay Cool

Painterman - see new thread on this UI've migrated your message.

Paul

Thanks for the appreciation Franz, actually I do have a few good tracks still not surfaced on any comp (as far as I know), but unfortunately my friend who did all the technical job has gon eliving far away. If I find
here around someone who could be of help... I'll think about a vol.2
