CIRCUS DAYS

VA - Circus Days, Pop Psych Obscurities 1966-1972 [2011] (6 x CDs)

If you thought you exhausted what the sixties music pantheon offered, you are wrong, psychedelic breath. I give this offering my highest rating and will enjoy. Fantastic psych late 60s/early 70s box set of the best the UK had to offer at this time, this label past and present has put out some of the best compilations from this era of UK and European pysch, fuzz, freakbeat and some Merseybeat bands that got very little attention back in the day, great miii LP replicas here with fantastic remastering, if you are a 60s or early 70s freakbeat fan you cant go without this box set, this is as good as the rubble collection series where............ not a bad song on any of these CD's, also great booklet. Limited 1000 numbered import 6 CD box.

    1. Hi Steve,
      I don't know why you are having trouble downloading some files. I have tested them, downloaded them, extracted them and i have no issues. I suspect you have an issue with your security firewall. Try using an alternative browser and/or a VPN. I hope that will work.
      Cheers

    2. THANKS!
      Used my other laptop and now zips extract fine!
      For some reason on the other laptop.... there is an issue?
      Must be the file manager/unzipper?
      Anyway, all is good now!
      Went back and got the others that gave me issues and unzipped fine!
      THANKS.
      Steve
