Fans of this critically acclaimed series have been waiting a decade for Eric Records to deliver more sonic sensations and stereo rarities from the late 1960s. Now it s here Hard to Find 45s on CD, Vol. 17: Late Sixties Classics - and it s spectacular! You ll hear 21 beautifully remastered songs, 16 of which were Top 10 hits and 8 that appear in stereo for the first time ever!

Hearing the classic psychedelic hits "Incense And Peppermints" (Strawberry Alarm Clock), "Psychotic Reaction" (The Count Five), and "You re Gonna Miss Me" (13th Floor Elevators) in stereo is like hearing them for the first time!

Also appearing in stereo for the first time anywhere are British Invasion favorites "A Groovy Kind Of Love" (Mindbenders), "Gimme Some Lovin " (Spencer Davis Group), and "The Mighty Quinn" (Manfred Mann) along with the #1 novelty "Winchester Cathedral" (The New Vaudeville Band).

But the crown jewel here is the brilliantly restored "MacArthur Park" by Richard Harris. This hit has never sounded this good on CD - or anywhere else - since its original release. You ll feel like you re sitting in the orchestra!

No other label puts as much care and effort into providing the correct versions of the original hit singles you remember in the best sound quality. It s a great value, too - 65 minutes of hits not available in audiophile-quality like this from download services like iTunes and Spotify.

Includes a 12-page booklet with complete song-by-song annotation and liner notes by Greg Adams. No matter how many collections of Sixties music you own, you haven t heard anything like this.

SIXTEEN TOP 10 HITS! 8 MAJOR STEREO DEBUTS!

After ten years of wrangling, Luaka Bop is set to release 'Nobody Can Live Forever: The Existential Soul of Tim Maia' a fifteen track survey of Maia's 1970s recordings, completely remastered, commemorating what would have been the Brazilian musical legend's 70th birthday on September 28.

Limited vinyl LP pressing of this 2009 album from the eclectic guitarist. Includes digital download. Although John Frusciante is best known as the former guitarist of the rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, he also has an active solo career, having released 11 albums under his own name. His solo recordings include elements ranging from experimental rock and ambient music to new wave and electronica. Frusciante asserts that the record "was recorded on and off between December 2006 and March 2008," and is a concept album that tells "a single story both musically and lyrically." The record features an array of collaborators and guest musicians, including Frusciante's former bandmate Flea, and friends Josh Klinghoffer and former The Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr.

Born during the revolutionary and musically-rich '60s, Psychedelic Rock provided a platform for British and American musicians to experiment not only with hallucinogenic drugs, but also with new sounds that included elaborate studio effects, non-Western instruments -such as sitar and tabla-, disjunctive song structures and surreal and esoterically-inspired lyrics. The Psychedelic Rock Box is a 6XCD compilation that showcases the work of the genre's most prominent artists and many of the essential tracks from that era. The Fuzztones, Arthur Brown, Spencer Davis Group, The Deviants, Sun Dial and Plasticland are only a few of the performers included in this definitive collection of the genre. With fantastic artwork and remastered sound, The Psychedelic Rock Box is an fundamental addition to your rock music collection. And remember that it is not available on streaming platforms!

On Sunday nights throughout the '50s and '60s, Ed Sullivan brought pop culture into America's living rooms with th e most influential show of its kind. If you made it there, you had it made because for the first time, the entire county was at home watching. During the course of the show's run, many of the early rock and roll legends were featured in career-defining p erformances. These cultural milestones have been compiled for Ed Sullivan's Rock 'n' Roll Classics, along with archival footage and narration for insight on the artists, their eras, and their classic appearances. Now seen with half a century of hindsight , it's clear Ed Sullivan was right--his was a "really big show."

Top Hits of 1968: Gary Puckett & The Union Gap ("Lady Willpower"), Tommy James & The Shondells ("Mony Mony"), The Chambers Brot hers ("Time Has Come Today"), The Beach Boys ("Do It Again"), Spanky & Our Gang ("Like To Get To Know You"), Tom Jones ("Delila h").

Top Hits of 1969: Smith ("Baby It's You"), Oliver ("Jean"), Brooklyn Bridge ("Worst That Could Happen"), The 5th Dimension ("Aq uarius/Let The Sun Shine In"), Creedence Clearwater Revival ("Proud Mary").

Top Hits of 1970: B.J. Thomas ("Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head"), The Jackson 5 ("I Want You Back"), The 5th Dimension ("One Less Bell To Answer"), The Carpenters ("We've Only Just Begun"), The Supremes ("Someday We'll Be Together"), The Jackson 5 ("T he Love You Save").

Seventeen performances by some of the many pop and rock acts who appeared on Ed Sullivan's variety show during its heyday are on display in this, the second of the Ed Sullivan's Rock 'n' Roll Classics boxed set's nine discs. "Chart Toppers, Volume 2" is somewhat short on star power; Smith, Oliver, Spanky and Our Gang, and the Brooklyn Bridge aren't exactly household names, then or now. But there are some interesting oddities here as well, such as the Beach Boys appearing without Brian Wilson for "Do It Again" and Karen Carpenter playing drums on the exquisite "We've Only Just Begun." As is the case elsewhere in the boxed set, some songs appear to have been edited for length, and the frequent lip-syncing (or singing live to prerecorded tracks) is a drag. But what may be the weakest disc of the box still packs enough appeal to make it worth checking out. --Sam Graham
