VA - Acid Drops, Spacedust & Flying Saucers, Psychedelic Confectionery From The UK Underground 1965-1969 [2001] (4 x CD's)

ACID DROPS

Previously posted October 9, 2019

VA - Acid Drops, Spacedust & Flying Saucers, Psychedelic Confectionery From The UK Underground 1965-1969 [2001] (4 x CD's)

Lovingly compiled by those scholarly scribes at Mojo magazine (and with excellent sleeve notes from genre connoisseur Jon Savage), the 72-track, four x CD box set Acid Drops, Spacedust & Flying Saucers is a veritable encyclopedia of British 60s psychedelic pop. Come, let us leave our monochrome 21st-century adult lives and climb the technicolour loft-ladder into an enchanted and forgotten childhood attic of Benzedrine bedtime stories, liquorice allsorts, toy trains, rainbow trees and--in the case of Mandrake Paddle Steamer--strange men walking across the lawn. As Acid Drops correctly points out, American psychedelia was all about napalm guitars, carbon monoxide poisoning and "they're coming to take me away to Vietnam" psychosis. However, its cuddly, post-ration book British sibling was more concerned with sniffing the school chemistry set, eating sweets and something or other to do with gardening. Thus, beat-band blokes from such unlikely places as Scunthorpe, Hove and Hounslow set sail for new musical horizons--possibly on flying carpets made out of flutes and mellotrons--with the pioneering zeal of Victorian free-thinkers. Aside from cult cornerstone classics by The Poets, Timebox, Kaleidoscope, David McWilliams, Amazing Friendly Apple (whose "Magician" really does sound like the work of mysterious robed men with long white beards) and World Of Oz (although surely the pervy nursery rhyme "Muffin Man" would have been a better choice than "Peter's Birthday"), Acid Drops boasts plenty of familiar hit parade fare from The Move, Donovan, The Yardbirds. The Hollies et al, plus obscurities galore. Who, exactly, were proto-punk freak-beat exponents Allen Pound's Get Rich and how come they sounded like Adam and The Ants 11 years before the event? Bamboo Shoot? Nope, us neither--nor the compilers. With such notable absentees as Svensk and Dantalion's Chariot, a whole tangential area of weird-folk to explore and with EMI holding the magic key to the locked cupboard of early Floyd outtakes, here's hoping this essential, un-put-downable box set is the first in a very, very long series. (Amazon)

Just when you thought the mine of obscure 60's British psychedelia had been stripped, MOJO magazine's merry music geeks have gleefully assembled one of the best collections of the genre. Amazingly, only a relative handful of selections cross over with Rhino's recent and similar "Nuggets II" box--so if you're a hardcore collector, it won't be too over-spendy to scoop up both. Fascinating liner notes in the companion booklet are a nice bonus (you'll be surprised at how many of these no-hit wonders, with hilarious names like Mandrake Paddle Steamer, actually represent the fledgling appearances of later-to-be-famous rock stars.)  Sound quality is as good as you can expect, keeping in mind that 1) you are dealing with 1960's studio technology, and 2) many of these songs are so obscure that the only existing copies are probably on vinyl sources! Wisely, MOJO does mix in some Who, Kinks, Animals, Yardbirds, etc., giving the collection a nice historical balance and context for the more casual music fan. (Amazon)

MOJO magazine's wide-ranging tribute to the British psychedelic age wraps its arms around pretty much everything the genre entailed. Included here are household names like Donavan, the Yardbirds, the Animals, etc. but the treasure of course lies in the obscure acts. Bamboo Shoot's "Fox Has Gone To Ground" is virtually unfindable in its original 45 format, for example. Felius Andromeda's "Meditation," one of my favorite tracks, has been comped elsewhere (i. e. on "Psychedelia") but even some of these comps are hard to find. The tune sounds like British psych performed by Gregorian chanters. As one chronicler noted so accurately, in the US, psychedelia usually expressed itself in the form of the politically driven LP. Often in response to our country's war and turmoil. In the UK, it expressed itself in the form of the 45 rpm, often in a Lewis Carroll-like fairy tale theme. This compilation does as good a job as any summarizing the UK approach. Get it while you can. (Amazon)

K SPECIAL MOJO's READERS POLL

VA - MOJO Magazine Presents: The 100 Greatest Singles of All Time (Readers Poll - December 1997) [2023] (5 x CDs) 

Mojo (stylised in all caps) is a popular music magazine published monthly in the United Kingdom, initially by Emap, and since January 2008 by Bauer. Following the success of the magazine Q, publishers Emap were looking for a title that would cater for the burgeoning interest in classic rock music. The magazine was designed to appeal to the 30 to 45-plus age group, or the baby boomer generation. Mojo was first published on 15 October 1993. In keeping with its classic rock aesthetic, the first issue had Bob Dylan and John Lennon as its first cover stars. Noted for its in-depth coverage of both popular and cult acts, it acted as the inspiration for Blender and Uncut. Many noted music critics have written for it, including Charles Shaar Murray, Greil Marcus, Nick Kent, David Fricke, Jon Savage and Mick Wall. The launch editor of Mojo was Paul Du Noyer and his successors have included Mat Snow, Paul Trynka, Pat Gilbert and Phil Alexander. The current editor is John Mulvey.

While some criticise it for its frequent coverage of classic rock acts such as the Beatles, David Bowie and Bob Dylan, it has nevertheless featured many newer and "left-field" acts. It was the first mainstream magazine in the UK to focus on the White Stripes, and it continues to cover emerging acts. Modern cover stars of recent years have included Lana Del Rey and Arctic Monkeys. Every issue of Mojo published since its inception (apart from Mojo #88 and Mojo #125) has featured an article on Colin Blunstone.

Mojo regularly includes a covermount CD that ties in with a current magazine article or theme. It introduced the Mojo Honours List, an awards ceremony that is a mixture of readers' and critics' awards, in 2004.

More recently, the magazine has taken to publishing many "Top 100" lists, including the subjects of drug songs (Mojo #109), rock epics (Mojo #125), protest songs (Mojo #126) and even the most miserable songs of all time (Mojo #127).

In 1997 two polls were taken to determine the 100 greatest singles of all time. An experts poll in August 1997, followed by a readers poll in December 1997.

MOJO Magazine Presents: The 100 Greatest Singles of All Time (Readers Poll - December 1997) (5CD) (2023)

Compiled by MOJO magazine from top 10 lists supplied by their loyal readers worldwide.

The 100 greatest singles were voted for by the readers listed on the inside cover of the December 1997 - issue 49. Songs not available on 45s in the UK were disqualified.

I put in hundreds of hours of research into compiling this collection and paid particular close attention into how the original singles were released, using many hard to find correct 7" single versions, edits and mono mixes.  No later remixes, re-recordings, 'stereo enhanced' or live bootleg versions here!  Compiled as always using the very latest and highest quality digital remasters, with a considerable amount of tracks sourced from the original master tapes for superior sound quality and enjoyment.  Almost 6 and a half hours of many of the greatest singles ever recorded!

MOJO MAGAZINE SAMPLERS

VA - The Mojo Machine Turns You On (Let Mojo Take You There) [1997 - 1999] (10 x CDs)

MOJO is a popular music magazine published monthly in the United Kingdom, initially by Emap, and since January 2008 by Bauer. Following the success of the magazine Q, publishers Emap were looking for a title that would cater for the burgeoning interest in classic rock music. The magazine was designed to appeal to the 30 to 45-plus age group, or the baby boomer generation. Mojo was first published on 15 October 1993. In keeping with its classic rock aesthetic, the first issue had Bob Dylan and John Lennon as its first cover stars. Noted for its in-depth coverage of both popular and cult acts, it acted as the inspiration for Blender and Uncut. magazine.

MOJO was first published on 15 October 1993 and from 1997 until mid-2004 occasionally came with a CD, or an odd 7" vinyl record. A covermount CD is included with every month's issue since July 2004, except for September 2004 and January 2006 when two separately available CDs were included, and March 2016 when no disc was included with the David Bowie tribute issue which included commemorative posters. No CD produced for issue dated March 2022 due to rising costs.

This set of MOJO magazine issued promotional CDs are the ten that are titled The Mojo Machine Turns You On (Let Mojo Take You There) published between 1997 and 1999. Enjoy reminiscing and discovering new music.
