Artist: The Boenzee Cryque
Title: I've Never Known A Girl
Track: 8
Album: The Psychedelic States: Colorado In The 60's CD 2
The label owner Roger Maglio shows how he personally still feels dearest to Colorado, having lived before a few years in Colorado, and the label soon will be located there, so also the music collection here (beat, garage, psych), compared to the previous issues, sounds rewarding, qualitative, and well compiled, and they could not help it, instead of waiting for two volumes, they made it immediately a double album.
The compilation hangs together well and evolves and builds up well with tracks evolving from beat to psych very quickly on disc one, with tracks worth to discover. The compilation is stuffed, so needs multiple browsing and halts to uncover all of its rather interesting content.
Strange surprise (except for the usual fine discoveries) and unusual for a Psychedelic States compilation is one Dylan influenced track by The Obvious, still fitting well between the other tracks.
I have no idea if there is a real Colorado sound. Many of the early listed tracks fit well between UK and US psych. From The Monocles we can expect a full release/compilation later. Unfortunately, a few tracks are not of a too perfect quality, but still deserve to be heard. Also listed are several previously unreleased tracks/acetates. The collection on CD1 must interest the early psych and psychrock lovers.
