Psychedelic Underground 13

This very collectable Italian psychedelic/progressive/garage instrumental album was originally released in 1970 by Radio Records and then licensed to British Pan-Tonic label and German and French Vogue Records. Behind that name hid (for contractual reasons) the musicians of very fine progressive rock band Nuova Idea. But the real mastermind behind that LP was composer Gian Piero Reverberi (also the producer of Le Orme albums) who wrote all of the songs under the nickname Ninety. On their debut LP The Underground Set delivered a shot of psychedelic sounds that wouldn't be out of place at late 60’s European psychedelic club or one of many exploito movies. Lovers of mad organs and swirling fuzz psychedelic guitars will have hours of enjoyment with that CD!

A cross section of the London underground, from heavy pounders to frilly harpsichords & all points inbetween. Named after one of John Peel's radio shows, & now including mastering & band bios for the first time in the series' long history. No, you didn't miss Vols. 4 & 5 (either in the 80s, when the original Vols 1 & 2 came out, or in the 90s when Vol. 3 came out), they were compiled just now for the box edition.

Where previous installments of Nuggets concentrated on singles, Hallucinations is a true excavation of the vaults, picking overlooked album tracks and neglected singles from a cornucopia of WEA-owned labels, including Warner Bros., Cotillion, Jubilee, Valiant, Reprise, and Atco. While the focus is on acts that released a single or forgotten album, there are a handful of recognizable names – the Association, Kim Fowley, the Electric Prunes, the Bonniwell Music Machine, the Tokens, the West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band – and in the Monkees' "Porpoise Song," there's even a genuine hit.

At this point in music history, it's become a given that the Velvet Underground were one of the most important and innovative rock bands of their era, and that the four albums they released during their lifespan rank with the most challenging and satisfying work in the rock canon…

As its title makes clear, Children of Nuggets is the first Nuggets release to stretch beyond the '60s heyday of garage rock and psychedelic music. Instead of once again returning to that seemingly bottomless well – which has not only brought the original 1972 double LP, Nuggets, but such imitators as the Pebbles and Rubble series, plus Rhino's expanded four-disc 1998 box set and its 2001 sequel, which focused on singles from the U.K. and around the world – the four-disc box Children of Nuggets is devoted to bands from the '70s, '80s, and '90s (but primarily the '80s) that were inspired by the original Nuggets LP, along with other trashy, intoxicating rock and guitar pop from the '60s…

Does this five-CD box set feature an abundance of essential material? Certainly. It has all four of the studio albums released by the Lou Reed-led lineup, and a wealth of previously unreleased goodies. Is it an essential purchase? That depends on your level of fanaticism. Most serious Velvet fans have all four of the core studio albums already (although the third, self-titled LP is presented in its muffled, so-called "closet" mix), and will be most interested in the previously unavailable recordings, which do hold considerable fascination…
