Nuggets #2

Nuggets #2, or "Original Artyfactas From the British Empire and Beyound", if you prefer, was the
follow up to the "original" four disc box, "Nuggets", featured right here just a few days ago.....much the same concept, amatuerish, arty, somewhat-psychedelic singles, only from around the world, not exclusively the USA ala the original.....I must say, there is a good bit of overlap here with the "Mega Nuggets" set of the past few days, if you rpogram the whole thing yourself, you may be better off, depending on whether you want actual copies of the releases, or just pure, non-overlapping listening pleasure..

God, I remember this set for one huge reason.....it was in the pre-Bit-Torrent days and I had to put it together, basically a track at a time, from Winmx or AudioGalaxy or whatever of those ancient services I was using at the time......got it done though, anyway, and was always proud of that effort, recreating a four disc et one track at a time........those were the days? No, not really.....

Well, lets look at a highlight or two.....disc one, again, while featuring some overlap with "mega Nuggets", contains gems such as The Fire's "Father's Name Was Dad", The Move's "I Can Hear the Grass Grow", "Midnight To Six Man" by the Pretty Things, and "My Mind's Eye" by the Small Faces.......Disc 2 gives us "I Can Only Give You Everything" by Them, The Easybeats' "Friday On My Mind", and "Daddy Buy Me a Girl" by Golden Earring. A lot of good tunes, even dancing around the "Mega Nuggets" overlap.

Disc three brings us, among lots more, "Who Dat" by the Jury, Status Quo's fab "Pictures of Matchstick Men", "It's My Pride" by the Guess Who, and "Cry In the Night' by Q65......fianlly Disc four gives us the Pretty Things legendary "Rosalyn", The Mops (from Japan) "I'm Just a Mops" (I should do an all-Mops post sometime, it would be great), Blossom Toes "When the Alarm Clock Rings", Os Mutantes "Bat Macumba", and The Zipps "Kicks and Chicks"

This is a good set.....as long as we are muddling around this genre, overlap will be something of a
problem, but I'll do my best to keep it to a minimum.....please comment on what you think of these sets thus far, as I've said, if you wish, I could absolutely BURY you with them., let me know, more? Cease and desist? you make the call.
