The Light Pours Out of Me: The Authorised Biography of John Mcgeoch

The Flamin' Groovies are a band who built a career out of demonstrating the positive aspects of living in the past. While they first rose to fame in San Francisco in the late '60s, they had little interest in the psychedelic music that was all the rage in the Bay Area. Instead, the Groovies celebrated the joys of first-era rock & roll and vintage R&B, as well as the greasy raunch of early-'60s rock. They came up with the classic tune "Teenage Head" from the similarly classic LP of the same name in 1971, but after some lineup changes, the band evolved into British Invasion obsessives whose songs echoed the glory days of the Beatles (with some of the Byrds' 12-string jangle mixed in). Their second classic song "Shake Some Action" – which was the title track of their 1976 album of the same name – is a chiming, elegiac ballad that helped define the softer side of power pop in the mid-'70s. Some form of band – always helmed by guitarist

Early geniuses of Delta Blues - Robert Johnson, Geeshie Wiley & Elvie Thomas, Son House, Charley Patton and many more have been painstakingly remastered using a mix of analog and digital technology for a hybrid sound that is simultaneously contemporary, immediate but still completely true-to-form.
