Label Spotlight & New Additions

LABEL SPOTLIGHT

This week we’re showcasing two great ALIVE bands, LEFT LANE CRUISER AND JAMES LEG. The reviews are rolling in for both bands!

JAMES LEG:

The greatest feature of Below the Belt is the overriding spirit of wildness that can’t be tamed and that James Leg exudes with his very breath. Part Howlin’ Wolf, part Iggy Pop, he’s the new standard-bearer for the rebels, the new punk in a land of posers. – Read the whole review in ELMORE MAGAZINE

“A combination of reverence toward the progenitors of the blues and a spirit of pure enjoyment that is rare to find.” – WYMA

“Blues as attitude more than ritual. Its subtleties are loud and lived-in as they exceed the speed limit on the expressway to your heart.” – ROCK & RAP CONFIDENTIAL

“Finding Seasick Steve too suave and elegant these days? If so, Left Lane Cruiser might be more your rusty tin cup of moonshine.” – THE BLUES MAGAZINE

SOME OF THE TITLES AVAILABLE

LEFT LANE CRUISER- Bring Yo' Ass To the Table Whiskey fueled two-man frenzy of blues-driven rock'n'roll noise straight from Fort Wayne, Indiana. "Think of LLC as a mix of Hound Dog Taylor, Jon Spencer and Lucky Wray and the Palomino Ranch Hands. Kapow, kerpow!" - Doctor Mooney's 155th CD $10 SKU:7235

LEFT LANE CRUISER-All You Can Eat "All You Can Eat!!" showcases the band's high-voltage punk blues style they're known for and it is everything fans of their Alive debut expects and a lot more! Follow up to their acclaimed 2008 release "Bring 'Yo Ass To the Table," this new album was recorded in Detroit at the infamous Ghetto Recorders, and produced by legendary Jim Diamond. If you're not hip to the Cruisers yet here is the lowdown : hailing from Fort Wayne, Indiana, Left Lane Cruiser is part of the new punk blues scene and is formed by Freddy J IV (Joe) on slide guitar, and hoarse vocals, and Brenn Beck (aka Sausage Paw) on drums and assorted percussion (washboard, trash cans, cowbells).
"Left Lane Cruiser plays North Mississippi style blues like a lot of blues bands do these days, they just play it louder and harsher than anyone else, and that includes the North Mississippi AllStars - their sound comes across big enough to fill a stadium." - Blogcritics. "R.L Burnside, Seasick Steve, trash cans, hub caps, meth smoking two dollar pawn shop mics and all sounding as cool as that all sounds." - Organ. "This is the blues in their purest form, rough and ragged, rubbed raw by too much hard living and too many tough breaks." - AMG. "Left Lane Cruiser's high-voltage blues sound is downright nasty. Blistering electric slide guitar and leering vocals distill old-school Mississippi blues down to its rowdiest essence." - Casual Listening CD $10 SKU:10684

LEFT LANE CRUISER- Rock Them Back to Hell digipack - Label:ALIVE Freddy J IV and Brenn Beck are back with an album of voodoo hillbilly punk-blues. Recorded in Fort Wayne IN, and mixed in Detroit by Jim Diamond, “Rock Them Back To Hell!” sees the duo expanding their sonic palette by adding bass, harmonica, organ, and “trash percussion” (that would be a cardboard box, a paint tin, trash can and an electrified five-gallon bucket). The result is an album to wake up the dead, and rock it back to hell! The “hell-billies” cover art is the work of renowned artist William Stout (Return Of The Living Dead, Invaders From Mars, Pan’s Labyrinth).
Freddy J. Evans IV (guitar/vocals) and Brenn “Sausage Paw” Beck (drummer/“trash”/vocals), a powerhouse duo out of Fort Wayne, Indiana, are roots-music revolutionaries who take no prisoners. - POPMATTERS

As soon as the opening riff kicks in, you know that Left Lane Cruiser isn't a traditional country blues band. The Indiana duo might well have influences from the Mississippi area, but what they do with them is fresh and coruscating. - CLASSIC ROCK / UK

An authentic and inspiring updating of the blues-rock idiom for the 21st century. - BLOGCRITICS

They sound like a couple of unhinged punk hillbillies raised on the North Mississippi hill country blues of R.L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough. They mine the same sort of modal blues territory but, with half-distorted vocals pushed through what sounds like a shorted-out karaoke mike, they also sound like a lo-fi swampy version of the Stooges, all full of rampaging impatience. - ALL MUSIC CD $10 SKU:15421

LEFT LANE CRUISER- Dirty Spliff Blues- digipack CD $10 SKU:16669

LEFT LANE CRUISER - Junkyard Speed Ball DIGIPACK -Left Lane Cruiser’s third album for Alive Naturalsound records could be considered, in many ways, their best effort yet. “Junkyard Speed Ball” brings in the elements of the heavy, heart thumping, trash blues stomp they’re known for, but it also showcases a wider range, with some slower numbers that will make you groove. Recorded in Detroit by Jim Diamond, Left Lane Cruiser is joined by none other than Revrend James Leg (aka John Wesley Myers) of the Black Diamond Heavies playing keyboard on five songs, with his distinctive style undoubtedly bringing a new color to the duo sound.

Finally, over four decades later, this album collects the band’s entire studio material alongside two excellent sounding 1966 live tracks.

TEENAGE JESUS & THE JERKS- Live 77-79 Label:OTHER PEOPLE

This particular collection is meticulously edited and mastered from rare bootlegs taped during the initial 1977-1979 period of the classic band, and only one title ('Crown of Thorns' from January 17, 1979) has been legitimately released to date, albeit in a completely different sound quality.Almost every known Teenage Jesus and the Jerks composition appears on this compendium and Ms. Lunch herself is quite satisfied that this just might be the final nail in the coffin... If it is the sound of deliberately organized and deployed agony you are seeking, your bath has been drawn and the razor awaits." --Weasel Walter, Brooklyn, NY, June 30, 2015LP $27 SKU:17129

YOUNG FLOWERS- Blomsterpistolen ( 60's Danish acid psych )SAALE -Label:SONET The influence of early but heavy psychedelic British rock is overwhelming on the debut album by this Danish trio, which owes specifically apparent debts to Jimi Hendrix and Cream. It has some of the surface trappings of late-'60s records featuring Hendrix and Clapton in the squealing distorted guitars, phasing, and overall transmutation of the blues to a hard rock format. The opening "Overture -- Take Warning" alone sounds like it's determined to stretch the white noise effects that Hendrix used to open songs with a flourish to full-track length. What the album's missing -- unlike most of the recordings by Hendrix and Cream -- is good songwriting, let alone the kind of classics churned out by those role models. They certainly don't lack ambition, as three of the songs use lyrics by Walt Whitman, and they try their hand at a nine-minute jam-type thing, "April '68," as well as a hard blues-rock interpretation of Bob Dylan's then-recent "Down the Cove." But it's the shortest song, "To You," that's the most focused and appealing, very much recalling the shortest and most focused songs of Cream. LP $22 SKU:14963

ZACHARIAH, HELEN- Kodak Ghosts Run Amok - SAALE -Label:NDN “Kodak Ghosts Run Amok" is Helen Zachariah's foray into Dance Music. Pressed on high grade quality DJ vinyl. Shrinkwrapped in die-cut black sleeve with stickered cover. LP $3 SKU:12459

KATH - 1 (original album) + Unreleased Material -Obscure garage psych - DBL CD SALE - Label:LION As Patrick the Lama said in Acid Archives, “Obscure and impressive melodic basement garage/psych excursion with a lo-fi atmosphere that would have most purveyors flip out, hits the Ampex two-track echo & tinny drum sound dead on.... At times the vibe is almost like Mystery Meat or Index, and that's not something you run across every day. A totally outside garage/psych/private LP that feels as personally projected as those Michael Yonkers sides. MORE INFO ON SITE CD $15 SKU:14509

KING , REG - ST - (Blossom Toes / Mighty Baby / ACtion ) w 7 bonus tracks, 8 page booklet -Label:CIRCLE Never re-issued before, on either vinyl or compact disc, Circle Records take great pleasure in presenting former lead singer of The Action, Reg King's self-titled album. Originally released on the "United Artists" label in 1971 (although it's earlier recordings date from 1969), via production company "Sahara Records", the 'Reg King' album is a neglected 'lost classic'. Long sought-after by collectors, with original copies regularly achieving three-figure sums, this record features all original King/Dale material, with backing from the highly-respected musicians of "B.B. Blunder" (ex-Blossom Toes) and "Mighty Baby" (ex-The Action). Other 'stellar' names making their musical contributions to this album include Mick Taylor, Steve Winwood, Elton Dean and Brian Auger. In addition, a whole host of other musicians at the cutting edge of the British Jazz and Underground Rock scenes of the time assist in different places. A particularly essential purchase for any fan of The Action or Mighty Baby: Check-out the musicianship and Reg's emotive, soulful voice on this, the final stage of his professional career. Remastered from the sole-surviving 1/4" masters, this album keeps the original production and mix as intended by Reg, but adds a clarity and 'punch' previously unheard. This is an official release in conjunction with "Rolled Gold Productions" who own the copyright and masters: Anything else you may be offered is a BOOTLEG that pays nothing to Reg. Don't even consider buying anything else until you see this edition! 16-track CD - Featuring the full original album, plus 7 bonus tracks of different versions (early/demo etc.) of album tracks from the sessions, some of which are quite radically different to the 'final' ones! A fascinating look at how the tracks evolved in themselves. Out of the bonus tracks, only "10,000 Miles" with Mighty Baby is common to our vinyl re-issue. Also, the C.D. version of "Nobody Knows Where We Are" is longer/un-edited. Packaging in colour, with 8-page booklet and "UA" label-styled disc.500 numbered copies on first run. CD $14 SKU:11492

And they play like a buncha yetis as well...sorta like the Cheater Slicks only much better because they don't sound like a mockery of the music they claim to love.

'Hair' by 31 Flavors is the counterpart to The Firebirds' LP 'Light My Fire'. Along with demented raw garage covers of 'Hair' and 'Aquarius', it contains some of the heaviest, fuzzed out exploitation sounds ever committed to vinyl.

WITCHES- A Haunted Person's Guide To.(.ltd ed yellow). psych - - Label:ALIVE YELLOW VINYL LTD. EDITION -"The best band that you never heard" of is a term that is commonly thrown around with much ado but in the case of The Witches it may well be true. Born in Detroit in 1996 from the mind of bass player Troy Gregory (Dirtbombs, Killing Joke) and with the help of fellow Michigan natives John Nash (Electric Six, LCD Soundsystem) on guitar, and producer Jim Diamond (White Stripes, Von Bondies) on electric twelve-string, The Witches went on to record five amazing albums between 1996 and 2006, with the help of a revolving line-up of Michigan musicians, before vanishing into thin air. "A Haunted Person's Guide To The Witches" compiles material from the band's five albums, and is a comprehensive introduction to the band's unique sound.

"A top-notch introduction to an underrated band." – Steve Wilson / Reverberations

"It’s a pleasant surprise that A Haunted Person’s Guide coheres like a proper album rather than a compilation." - Mark Deming / All Music Guide

"This is devilishly good music that should be filed on your shelf alongside the Soft Boys." – Alan Brown / Popmatters

"A Haunted Person’s Guide to the Witches makes a much stronger case for the Witches’ virtues than a journey through their catalog." – Michael Toland / The Big Takeover LP $15 SKU:12503

YONKERS, MICHAEL Wth the Blind Shake - Period (psych punk ) SAALE - Label:SS RECORDS Period is tuneful and heavy and punk and psychedelic, but there is also something more.

ZAKARY THAKS- Form the Habit 180 gram gatefold -Label:BEAT ROCKET Both sides of all six of Zakary Thaks' singles are on this last-word compilation, along with three instrumental versions of tracks from the 45s. All of this material has been reissued before on Eva's J-Beck Story 2, with the exception of instrumental versions of "Face to Face" and "Green Crystal Ties." Still, this marks the first time everything's been available in this fidelity in the U.S., bolstered by the inclusion of a lengthy interview with lead singer Chris Gerniottis in the liner notes. It takes its place as one of the very best single-artist '60s garage reissues, the songwriting and musicianship at a far higher level than most '60s garage bands could boast, with just as much insouciant youthful energy. From the punk of "Bad Girl" and the mind-blowing fuzz guitar of "Face to Face" to the Beatlesque pop of "Please," the folk-rock/pop of "Mirror of Yesterday," and the San Francisco-like psychedelia of their final releases (at times even sounding like early Moby Grape), it's all good-to-great stuff. Note, however, that different mixes are used than were heard on some of the original singles, which is particularly noticeable on "Mirror of Yesterday" (where the high mariachi horn parts in the break have been erased) and "Please" (which adds some poppy backup vocals to the bridge).
