HIPSTERS 

Once again the mod flag has been raised by a new generation. Acid Jazz have ridden the zeitgeist and come up with thirteen of the finest examples of the new worldwide wave. Hammond organ instrumentals, garage rock and punk, soul and psyche, funk and freakbeat. It’s all here in a glorious mash-up of cutting edge mod-mayhem.

The Black Hollies - Ready Set

From Jersey City, U.S.A., The Black Hollies play in a 60’s style very reminiscent of the Yardbirds and The Pretty Things.

The Dansettes - Oh My

Also from New Jersey, The Dansettes, three sassy girl vocalists backed by a brilliant band called The Bourbon Dynasty. A juicy blend of Stax/Atlantic and Tamla soul vibes.

The Len Price 3 - The Last Hotel

From the Medway Delta. New kids on the block, The Len Price 3 fuse driving energy, catchy hooks and a raw 60’s garage sound.

Thee Shams - Not Gonna Make It

The Gonks - Just A Man

Worldwide ambassadors of Neiderbeat, The Waistcoats come from Groningen in the north of Holland.

The Stabilisers - 100 Year Old Riff

The Loons - Some Kind of Asylum

The hard kinetic drive of European Freakbeat, with the psychotic melodic cool of L.A’s Sunset Strip circa 1966.Taken from the album Paraphernalia on Ugly Things Records. Ugly Things is also the name of singer Mike Stax’s superb 60’ music magazine.

Slow Slushy Boys - Shotgun Boogaloo

This excellent French combo mix 60’s garage beat with Boogaloo. If this combination doesn’t make your party a swinging affair you’re either deaf or dead.

The Moving Sounds - The Blindfold

The Risk - Something On My Mind

The Risk are one of the finest mod/power pop bands to come out of the 80’s revival
