Sequel reissued the bulk of Gene Pitney's '60s albums for Musicor as a series of compact discs that contains two original albums each. Although the material on each disc is different, one basic pattern does emerge – by and large, the singles were the best songs on each album, but the remaining songs, usually comprised of solid album tracks, covers and filler, are generally interesting to hardcore fans, since Pitney has such a uniquely dramatic voice. In other words, most fans will be satisfied by one of the many hits collections, but these discs are essential for serious fans and collectors.
T.I.M.E. stands for Trust In Men Everywhere. Debut album of this underrated US psychedelic band (which evolved out of very fine, garage-pop-psych band Hardtimes) was released in 1968 by Liberty Records in attractive die-cut, gatefold cover. It contained great mixture of very catchy and memorable songs based on rich vocal harmonies and strong guitar-organ interplay and being somewhere between garage rock and pop-psych. The music itself was very diverse, ranged from dark, atmospheric heavier tracks to much lighter sounds. lt’s worth noting that the main influences to the band were The Beatles, The Byrds, The Hollies and Buffalo Springfield. Their 2nd album was called ‘Smooth Ball’ (1969) and was much heavier and much more psychedelic effort.
