Halcyon Days: 60s Mod, R&B, Brit Soul & Freakbeat Nuggets
Ennesima compilation dedicata ai 60's del periodo mod.
87 brani, tra episodi noti e classici a cui si aggiunge una lunga serie di oscurità interessanti e gustose.
Kinks, Animals, Creation, Rod Stewart, Laurel Aitken, Yardbirds, il primissimo Bowie, Pretty Things, Action, Spencer Davis Group, Moody Blues sono i nomi più altisonanti e noti.
Poi é una piacevole immersione in (spesso eccellenti) in decine di brani e nomi dimenticati.
Tra i migliori il grande jazz soul "Baby never say goodbye" dei Bo Street Runners, il travolgente rhythm and blues di Ronnie Jones in "Little bitty pretty one", il bellissimo ska Mikey Finn in "Hush your mouth", l'indimenticabile minor hit della Zoot Money Big Roll Band con "Big time operator".
Triplo CD a 20 sterline, ottima qualità, contenuti spesso interessanti, vale la pena.
