OK, let me explain my thinking here.....THE definitive Italian 1960's comp is the volumnous "Atto di Forza", without looking I'd guess I have 15-16 volumes perhaps more......that is a bit much for the kind of thing I am doing, IF you happen to have interest in that set, I implore you to visit
http://paradiseofgaragecomps.blogspot.com/ his site is based out of Italy, and most likely he is the world's foremost expert on Italian garage/beat/psych whatever, if not he sure as hell knows a good deal more about it than do I......I'm certain the "Atto di Forza" set is there as that's where I originally picked it up, besides that it's a hell of a great site (MUCH better/more focused than the one you are focussing your eyes upon right now)......."Atto di Forza" is a fine set, I recommend it to you, but I think it's a bit excessive for what I'm doing with THIS site (or TRYING to do).......
"Garage Beat In Florence" features the Telstars, I Tremendi, Noi Tre, Danny, and a few more, I list these because all are given a generous representation of their (4-5 tracks each), which I always think is kind of cool......Noi Tre appears on "60's Beat Italiano" as well, with one of the same tracks, even, but most of the rest are non-overlapping......I Chewing Gum, I Jaguars, The Red Roosters.......not household names in the USA but good, and of course if you are familiar with "Atto di Forza" you'll know about some of them.
So here you go......I guess I could have put up that whole "Atto di Forza" thing, but it might be a bit redundant, and, anyway, I already directed you to THE authority on all rock-Italian.....my preferece, in these international comps (for the most part) has been just to give a small taste so the various styles can be compared and enjoyed, not to get all "Completist", know what I mean?
By the way "60's Beat Italiano" is the LP version, the CD version has a few more tracks, don't complain, it's what I have.....if you have the additional tracks (I bet Psyclist has em but he's biking around Southeast Asia!), wrap em up and put em in the comments section.
Hope everyone has a good week, got a FEW more regions of Earth to check into, then onto some maybe less-specific, less-rigidly compiled Nugget rock/psych.....we'll see, I really do have LOTS more!
