Since little Josef has made his displeasure with the Nuggets series clear, I think it's only fair that the next direction I take this blog in is to UPLOAD EVERY GODDAMN NUGGET COMP I HAVE, and maybe little Josef will hold his breathe until he turns blue. And, I have a BUNCH OF THEM:Today, I am trying to make one last swing at getting the final three discs of Psychedelic Arcaeology up, so no new post today, but if you LOOOOOVE some Nuggets, here is what is in store for ya in the near future (sorry Little Josef)......well, we could begin with the original Lenny Kaye Nuggets (I bet Josef can't STAND Lenny Kaye), actually the expanded, four disc box set......we could follow THAT up with the fab "Nuggets II, Original Artyfacts from the British Empire and Beyond" (note to Josef, this means countries OTHER THAN the USA), which is also 4 discs......maybe after that, I put up a couple of discs I made myself from the Rhino Nuggets vinyl series, featuring tracks from those albums that didn''t make the box sets. And THEN, what about the internet creation (I THINK it was created by the legend that is Chris Goes, someone sent it to me long ago, an unofficial 8-disc mammoth that myself and my friends have always called "Mega Nuggets". Certainly wouldn't want to forget the four disc "Love is the Song We Sing" (San Francisco Nuggets), or "Where the Action Is" (Los Angeles Nuggets, also four discs), and then, AFTER THAT, if Josef is still suffering in agony, perhaps we'll get to the THIRTY SOMETHING DISC "Pebbles" set, the "Rubble" set, the "Boulders" set, maybe "Psychedelic States", "Acid Visions", "Chocolate Soup For Diabetics", "Cicadelic 60's", "Circus Days", "Couloured Sites and Sounds", "Echoes in Time", "Elecric Lemonade Acid Test", "Endless Journey", "Exploiting Plastic Inevitable", "Fading Yellow", "Fuzz, Flakes, and Shakes", "Gathering of the Tribe", The "GS Japanese Psych-Garage Collection", "Hen's Teeth", "Highs in the mid-sixties", "Incredible Sound Show Stories", "Lost 60's Delights", "Mayhem and Psychosis", "Nederbeat (DUTCH Nuggets!)", "Never Ever Land", "Nightmares From the Underworld", the enormous "Prae-Kraut Pandemonium", "Project Blue", the fine internet series "Psych Crackle Pop" (19 Discs), "Psychedelic Crown Jewels", "Psychedelic Disaster Whirl", "The Pschedelic Experience" the "Psychedelic Instrumentals" series, "Psychedelic Microdots", "Psychedelic Pstones", "Psychedelic Schlmeils", "Psychedelic Unknowns", "The Calico Wall" series, another fantabulous internet creation, "Sir Psych Presents"(Currently around 50 discs), "Side Trips", "Tekites", "Texas Flashbacks", "The Perfumed Garden", "The Psychedelic Years Revistied", "Tobacco A Go Go", "Turkish Delights", the many MORE U-Spaces comps such as "California Love In" and "San Francisco Nights", among others, maybe a re-post of that 8 disc U-Spaces "Psychedelic Radio Spots and Promos" set, ANOTHER cool internet creation, the 25-disc "Vinyl Garage Underground", "Visions of the Past", "We Can Fly", and maybe after we get past all THOSE multi-disc sets, we can get around to some single disc Nugget/psych stuff such as "My Mind Goes High", "Journey to a Higher Key" (SITAR psych! yeah!), "Growing Slowly Insane", and oh, I don't know, I'd estimate maybe 3 to 4 hundred more......so, ya see, Josef, old boy, I do know a TINY bit about the music of this genre.....and the fact that my posting it irritates you is, in itself, "music" to MY ears.....
Will I post ALL of those comps listed above? Probably not likley, unless, 1) I am overwhelmingly URGED by the minions to do so, or 2) Josef continues to complain that the bands HE likes aren't on the albums I post (IN CASE YOU MISSED IT, I HAVE TO point out that Josef ACTUALLY THOUGHT THAT I PERSONALLY programmed/created "Children of Nuggets!" Let's all put on out thinkin' caps and ponder THAT one.
Anyways, in all seriousness, Josef aside what do ya think? Do ya WANT for me to go in this direction for a little while? There is some great stuff on these albums, lots of overlap of course, but a lot of hard to find gems as well......I deliberatley tried to be tedious/monotonous while listing all of them (to irritate Josef) but all of those ARE available for upload, as well as the 3-4 hundred that I didn't mention......I know, also, that this stuff is kind of divisive, you either can't get enough (me), or you really aren't THAT much into it, and prefer my posts of great punk, or great metal, stoner, glam, whatever....and either way that is fine (UNLESS you complain about it, ala our buddy)......
So, rant over, (well, not quite, ONE MORE TIME: THIS GUY THOUGHT I PERSONALLY PROGRAMMED AND CREATED "CHILDREN OF NUGGETS"!!!!!!!!!), I THINK I may have at least temporarily resolved the upload problems, and personally, I'm up for some Nugget-rock for the next week? Two weeks? Month? You guys tell me......pick from the list or come up with your own, I think I AM going to do some of it for a while, so PLEASE let me know what you want, and also when it starts to get excessive and you're ready for my MAMMOTH "Complete Story of the Clash" post I've been working on (it will be awesome, probably two weeks of virtually every note they ever recorded).....see ya tomorrow with
