The Prisoners "In From The Cold" 1986 + "Whenever I'm Gone" 1986 - 7"/45rpm

"The Prisoners spearheaded an early '80s Medway garage scene..."
You love THE SOLARFLARES?? Well..listen to this!! Of course..most of you know THE PRISONERS, but to those, who are new to this band, just listen to my words: This band was one of the best Mod & 80's Revival bands ever! Their sound was something like mixing up 6t's garagepunk with Soul & Psychedelic Pop! Incl. the young & energetic Graham Day!! their 1986 Album for Stiff Records & includes such classics as "the more that I teach you" & one of the best ballads EVER "mourn my health"! - from soundflat
The Prisoners:
Jamie Taylor - organ, piano, mellotron, harpsichord, vibes, marimba, wurlitzer / Allan Crockford - bass, voc / Johnny Simmons - drums / Graham Day - voc, guitars, flute

traxfromwax:
1. All you gotta do is say 2. Come closer 3. The more that I teach you 4. Mourn my health 5. I know how to please you 6. Deceiving eye 7. In from the cold 8. Wish the rain 9. Be on your way 10. Find and seek 11. Ain't no telling 12. Main Title Theme (The lesser evil)

"Whenever I'm Gone 1986 - 7"/45rpm
At their peak, a truly great live band. This 45 dates from their later mod revival phase and was one of the few releases on Countdown, a short-lived subsidiary of Stiff. A few months later the band had split up. And strangely, "Promised Land" bears a striking resemblance to "You Really Got Me". - phildil

"Blue Rose Collection" Vol. 11 2004 - disc 2

American guitar rock bands, singer/songwriters and country and southern rockers, for whom the big record companies don't seem to have any room, have been finding shelter with the small but fine Blue Rose label for some time now...

As on Vol.1, there are some top-class acts (Dashboard Saviors, Continental Drifters, Elliot Murphy, Jupiter Coyote, etc.) to discover! [bs]

The Solarflares "Psychedelic Tantrum" 1999

How do you review the Solarflares without mentioning The Prisoners? Answer? You don`t! Crockford and Day are still out there playing the same well crafted, 60s tinged songs with the raw energy that puts most of today`s scene to shame…
...Highlights? In truth there isn`t a bad song on here, with the added bonus of James Taylor`s Hammond on the excellent final track, "Hold Your Head Up". And if there`s one complaint, it`s that there isn`t more of it. Oh well, until there`s another Prisoners reunion, this will do just fine! - Reviewed by David Walker
The Solarflares:
Allan Crockford (Bass, Backing Vox, Organ) Graham Day (Lead Vox, Backing Vox, Guitars) Wolf Howard (Drums, Tambourine) Fay Hallam - organ on "Apollo Go Go" James Taylor - organ on "Hold Your Head Up"

Los Ultraman "Saicoreverberante" 2011

Ultraman, the famous protagonist of Japanese television was the name that some young people from Uruguay decided to use to name their surf band…
...You also have to add your fondness for Mexican wrestling, especially for the Blue Demon fighter and his taste for old horror and science fiction movies.
At the beginning of the year they gave us a preview of their work with 2 free EP's that they released but now it is time to listen to their first LP that is again free and can be downloaded from its official page although very soon they will also have a physical version in vinyl.
Apart from their own themes, they also included some covers such as the mega-known "Walk Don't Run" by The Ventures, "Our Favorite Matian" by Bobby Fuller, "I'm the Wolfman" by Round Robbin, "Wine Spoo-dee-o-" dee "by Sticks Mcghee and" Amazon Sound "by Los Mirlos.
All versions with the reverb to the fullest and assimilating quite well the original sound of the Californian surf of the 60s but now printing a dose of strength and speed.
They also repeated songs from their first EP's but now they were recorded again to give them a different finish, as in the case of "Horror Beach" which now has a half-song theremin.
So here you have one of the new faces of South American surfing who do not agree to make good songs, they also give them away.

01 Intro 02 Horror beach 03 Carridane 04 Walk Don't Run 05 Victimas de Elpha-Tron Zoide parte II 06 I'm the Wolfman 07 Wine Spoo-dee-o-dee 08 Ultra-twist 09 Sonido Amazónico 10 Diabolik 11 Marciano Favorito 12 Outro

The Lyres "Happy Now..." 1993

...By January 1983, that version of Lyres was history (Greenberg would go on to Barrence Whitfield & the Savages while Mike Lewis would play in an early edition of Yo La Tengo), and Dan McCormack came aboard to play guitar, while the initial rhythm section of Rick Coraccio and Paul Murphy returned to the fold...
...These four musicians would record the first full-length Lyres album, 1984's On Fyre, a powerful set that featured five original tunes and five covers, with the band sounding solid enough that it was hard to tell which tunes were which. The album earned great press and good sales for an indie release, and this lineup of the group stayed together until the dawn of 1986, a long run by Lyres standards... to be continued - by Mark Deming

"CAMEL WALK" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 28

Mambo is a Latin dance of Cuba which was developed in the 1940s when the music genre of the same name became popular throughout Latin America…
...The original ballroom dance which emerged in Cuba and Mexico was related to the danzón, albeit faster and less rigid. In the United States, it replaced rhumba as the most fashionable Latin dance. Later on, with the advent of salsa and its more sophisticated dance, a new type of mambo dance including breaking steps was popularized in New York. This form received the name of "salsa on 2", "mambo on 2" or "modern mambo". - wiki

The Prisoners "The Last Fourfathers" 1985

Third album from the much loved (and criminally overlooked) Prisoners and it's a scorcher...every track worth the purchase price alone. Indeed, even if you already have this album the extra tracks (8 in total, 6 previously unissued demos and 2 blistering live tracks) not only make this a must buy but help in the 'trying not to wear my vinyl out' stakes too! - By Headcoatson "Action... Time... Vision!" (Swansea United Kingdom)
At long last the Prisoners back catalogue has been released on CD. Not quite the same as vinyl but with the extra tracks a definite must! This was the most elusive of the four albums and is undoubtedly the best. The raw guitar backed by the Hammond is pure 60's type energy. The whole album is a melting pot of Small Faces crossed with Deep Purple crossed with late 60's American Garage. The Prisoners always had a unique sound which although their influences are obvious, there has never been another band which has had the same ability to carry it off so well. The tracks on the original album are originals but could so easily have been written in 1966/67 a la Marriot/Lane. Raw energy? Oh yes. Technical ability? Most definitely. Sheer brilliance? Most definitely so!!!!
If you buy one CD this year make it this one. This is without a shadow of a doubt a classic for anyone into the 60's revival genre. Never an advocate of "revivalist bands" the Prisoners were outstanding in that they captured the sound of what we hold so dear.....
Highlight of the album... "Explosion On Uranus". Absolutely superb. Small Faces meet the Ventures to produce one of the most outstanding tracks I've heard for a film that should have been made. On the track alone I'd go and see it! Play this album at maximum volume. Your neighbours need to hear it too! - By erichvon

The Kanaloas "Surf a Go Go!" 2016

Many have tried, nearly all have failed. The Kanaloas can pass the Turing test of surf rock, where even the most discerning ear could think it’s a genuine 60’s California surf instro. Take “Swallow Tail”, press it to 45, scuff up the label by rubbing it against your coffee table a bit, and you could probably trick me into paying $50 for it on sight thinking I’d found a rarity. Even in the first 10 seconds of the album, I hear drums that immediately say “Sentinals” to me. Would I say this about every song on there? No, but each song is closer than 90% of what I hear...
...This is all for naught if the songs were crap. They’re great though -- if I bought that hypothetical “Swallow Tail” 45, I wouldn’t regret it after realizing I’d been duped (assuming I can’t buy a better condition one for a better price). What trad is really about is songs that deal with a feeling, not a narrative. Short riffs that stick in your brain and get you charged up. The Kanaloas get it.

This cool comp was a result of a record show that Gyro Records went to on a Sunday, November 2000.These 45’s were all found there after much digging, and the result was this fantastic collection!

The Lyres "Nobody But Lyres" 1992 + "We sell soul" 1991 - 7"/45rpm

Not their best but damn good. More covers, less Monoman originals but I still love it. Lyres were the best of the garage rock revivalists (Cynics a close second) and Jeff Conally is still keeping his music alive to this day. All of his records have been good, some are great - he deserves the accolades of those who like this kind of music. - Peter Baum

"We sell soul" 1991 - 7"/45rpm
...This lineup would record the first Lyres release for Boston's Ace of Hearts Records, a four-song EP that came out in 1981 called AHS-1005 (some fans called it "Buried Alive" in reference to its first song). The EP won the group attention outside of Boston, and a single followed in 1983, "I Really Want You Right Now" b/w "Help You Ann."... to be continued - by Mark Deming

"Where lies the future of Rock 'n' Roll? Will we recycle old ideas ad infinitum - 3 chords boom chica boom, mimick the past and kneel and pray at the alter of Jerry Lee Lewis, The Ramones and the Cramps or will we introduce new musical concepts into Rock ‘n’ Roll, embrace the future and venture into unsafe yet exciting waters?..

Thee Milkshakes vs. The Prisoners "Live" 1985

A quality live album from start to finish. Just a plain old quality album really, never mind the live bit. With the exception of the first couple of singles, it's probably my favourite slice of The Milkshakes. Energetic, full of vim, vigour, fun and tunes - it really is the sound of band right at the top of their game, a game that everyone wants to join in with. Bruce in particular does himself proud on this...
...Swap "The Prisoners" for "The Milkshakes" in that paragraph, and you have a fair comment on the second side, too. Although you'd have to take out the Bruce Brand bit, obviously. Storming out of the blocks with the very best available version of "Melanie", there is barely a chance to draw breath until the arrival of "American Jingle" (which the eagle-eared amongst you will recognise and the tune that ended up as the little jingly bit between "Whenever I'm Gone" and "Who's Sorry Now" on The Last Fourfathers). Driven, powerful, impassioned, the chaps turn out a fearsomely tuneful garage racket that temporarily renders all other forms of music quite redundant. The onslaught eases slightly through the second part ("A Taste of Pink" is welcome, but I've never really been a fan of 96 Tears in any of its incarnations) before we close with another of Graham's peerless pipe workouts, a wholehearted and thrusting take on "Love Me Lies". Quality.

"Blue Rose Collection" Vol. 10 2003

American guitar rock bands, singer/songwriters and country and southern rockers, for whom the big record companies don't seem to have any room, have been finding shelter with the small but fine Blue Rose label for some time now...
...If you have a soft spot for contemporary US roots music, you can buy this label sampler, which costs as much as a pizza or a pint of beer at various summer festivals, without hesitation. As on Vol.1, there are some top-class acts (Dashboard Saviors, Continental Drifters, Elliot Murphy, Jupiter Coyote, etc.) to discover! [bs]

The Prime Movers "Earth Church" 1991

Earth Church is solid psychedelic rock without any digressions. The Prime Movers go from rocking hard to rocking somewhat lighter but they keep on rocking throughout the entire album and they know how to do this. - Babe_N_Co
