V/A – Don’t Press Your Luck! The In Sound Of 60’s Connecticut

Only 1 left in stock

$24.00

“The pounding garage-rock din emanating from the jungles of deepest Connecticut could overwhelm the senses, causing the weary NY commuter to become disoriented! Who knew that the most deranged ’66-’68 teenage mayhem imaginable would come from Wallingford’s Trod Nossel Studios, whose owner/producer Thomas “Doc” Cavalier (a former dentist) recorded top-flight acts as diverse as the tough ‘n’ melodic Shags (“Don’t Press Your Luck”), the R&B-consumed Wildweeds (“No Good to Cry,” featuring a Pre-NRBQ Al Anderson on vocals) and fuzzed-out punks the Bram Rigg Set (“I Can Only Give You Everything”). Sundazed presents the high-impact, garage-rock havoc– at least two-thirds of it totally unreleased–that finally tears the lid off Connecticut’s best-kept rock ‘n’ roll secret!”
