VOYAGES RECORDS

VA - Voyages Into . . .Pop-Psych, Folk-Rock, Garage, Psychedelia & Rock [2005-2007] (10 X CD's)

A CD series devoted to unearthing rare and intriguing 45's from the mid 1960's through the early 1970's. Culled directly from the Voyages vinyl archives, this collection provides focused offerings in five classic musical sub-genres:Voyages Records is a subsidiary label to the U-Spaces collective Group, They compiled 13 CDcompilations of previously non comped material  and were issued in the Voyages series between 2005 and 2010. The other 3 sets will be posted at a later date.

Lovingly compiled by musicologist and all-around 60's music guru Ben Chaput, these ten compilations feature some of the best obscure sides late 60's music has to offer. For the past ten years or so, rare psychedelic rock, garage and freakbeat have occupied the hearts and minds of music collectors everywhere as well as helping to empty their wallets. Scores of labels have popped up in the last decade dedicated to nothing but digging up and re-issuing rare private press releases as well as long-forgotten records put out on major labels. Think about how popular and noteworthy the Nuggets boxsets are and the Pebbles compilations and some of the other boxsets seeking to give listeners the best music of the 60's. Then, think about this great series of sets featuring some of the best music of the 60's all geared towards the collector and music freak, with rare songs never used on any other compilation. Truly, with this set of well-put-together comps, fans of this kind of music have hit the motherlode.

Fans of 60's music are just going to go crazy over this set. Not only are most of the songs included on these volumes incredibly obscure yet still fantastic, but most of these songs have never been comped before, so they are totally fresh and not the same songs appearing on the Pebbles and Nuggets 60's sets. Liner notes are brief yet informative, the notes manage to squeeze in just enough info on the bands to get you hooked and often include an anecdote about which band member eventually went off to work with this famous musician or what other groundbreaking band they joined. Also great are the annotations for which label it was recorded and the serial numbers on the original records. The vintage radio commercials spliced in between the songs are very cool. Featuring major bands and artists from the period and in line with the particular volume they are featured, these “commercial breaks” help make each of these CD's seem as if they are being beamed in by the coolest radio station ever. If you can only buy one “boxset” this year – this is the one to get.  (Amazon)
