3 CD Box Set . 80 tracks of Kiwi Mod,Soul,R'n'B and Freakbeat Nuggets (1964-69) with 36-page booklet -Many tracks on CD for the first time including 6 unreleased tracks.
80 recordings from the most British country outside of the UK. Immigration from the Motherland was at a peak during the 50s and 60s which saw a new breed of confident young English born immigrant which when added to our resourceful teens caused a musical youthquake. Isolation (next stop Antartica) meant that we were 3 months behind with the latest records from overseas and because our seasons are the opposite to the Northern hemisphere, we were always a year behind in the fashion stakes... but we didn’t mind-we were having a ball down here as you will hear from this collection.
