Two discs remaining of this stellar set of regiona obscurities, Volume 22 brings us back to the South
(Part 2), and of course volume 23, which I did not have (Texas Part 5) was provided by Friend of the Blog Davewolfsonnc, thanks again!. Anyway, 22 gives us off the wall selections by The Nomads, Evil Enc. Group, and Jimmy & the Offbeats, while the Texas finale brings us The Blox, Sweet Smoke ( I think I have a full LP by Sweet Smoke somewhere around here), and Gaylon Lord........bringing this series to it's conclusion.
Tell me what ya thought about it, I consider it to be among the more interesting of genres, super-obscure psych-garage, in partricular broken down regionally, which was an ingenious concept and REALLY worked well.......these 23 discs should find their way to any lover of said genre, beside all the Nuggets, Pebbles, Rubble, Gravel, and all the
rest........there is more to come!
