Reviews of tasty and obscure hook-filled rock'n' roll releases (Glam, Heavy Bonehead Crunchers, Powerpop, Pop/psych,Garage, Surf, 60s Girl Group Rock)...Plus any quirky musings that tickle my fancy...
I created this blog in order to stimulate interest, share discoveries and encourage people to go out and search for the original vinyl. Hopefully this blog might also encourage labels to actually compile some of this stuff officialy.

Return from Amsterdam Record Fair
Organised by the same people as Utrecht, the Amsterdam fair is of course smaller in size. However it’s a vibrant fair with a steady stream of buyers with dealers from Germany, France, UK, Belgium (and Holland). Smaller but perfectly formed, 3 hours was sufficient to see what I needed to instead of the usual 30 hours required at Utrecht. So call it a stop gap between November and April...
Not a mind-blowing haul as there was no unsuspecting German dealer with 10.000 singles to jump upon during unloading, however I was pleased to get a good condition copy of BZN’s Rock & Roll Woman, most sleeves you see of that one are always ripped and written upon.
