Great compilation released in 1974.

December 2014 is the month. The brand new (and expectant) Los Tupperalbum sees the light. ''Yesterday's Pizza'' is a compendium of garage-blues-rock and pop psychedelic tunes stone baked. Since the publication of ''Sardinista'' Los Tupper have been involved in the recording and production of a couple of gems; ''Throwing Rocks in Heaven'' with the Jacobite Dave Kusworth, and ''Madame Zodiac EP'' joined together with Mr Darrell Bath. With a new line up (Pepe Terán on keyboards), and always looking forward, Los Tupper are working in new songs and preparing the set list for the new album tour. Take your slice of Yesterday's pizza and taste the original flavour of Rock&Roll! Deluxe edition for the vinyl format!

Nikki Sudden and Dave Kusworth, or what is the same, the Jacobites, were formed in the early 80's as one of the most special and essential bands that arose from the underground British scene. Sunthunder Records is proud to be part of the small velvet universe contained in this 7", which contains two unreleased songs by Sudden & Kusworth.
On one side we have a tune that Nikki recorded in 2003 with his friend Joey Skidmore and other French artists. "The Otter Song" keeps the intensity of the greatest Sudden moments, with a remarkable John Rivers as engineer/producer for most of the discography by this Birmingham lot.
So what's on the other side? Dave Kusworth's "Apartment to compartment", an early-day classic on the Jacobites set list, a Rock & Roll smack in the purest Rolling Stones' "Exile on Main Street" style Recorded in Spain with Los Tupper, a Spanish support band that fits the Jacobite sound like a glove.

It's been worth waiting for Los Tupper's new album is here to stay under the name of ''Hotel Debris''. After the excellent reception of his former ''Yesterday's Pizza'', the band has turned the screw again, exploring new sounds and textures. On this ocassion, they have plunged into the greasy sounds of Mardi Gras, also stopping in those lonely pubs where you can have a pint of lager with Ray Davies or the much missed Kevin Ayers. Their brother out-law, ''the talented Darrel Bath'' collaborates in some tracks.

Psychedelic Folk.

Slipping from the fluffy and funky ''Nous bûmes'' to the Morriconian ''Du même fer'' via the heady ''Hold-up'' and its hail of percussions and acid guitars, ''Sur du velours'' ends with a disillusioned country song. Gil Rose catapults words and music with unrivalled verve and ingenuity aided by the classy musicians of Los Tupper. French elegance and groovy sounds, this one is high art.

Once upon a time there was a prince who lived in a velvet castle. He was a Rock&Roll outlaw and sometimes he crossed the sea to play with a band of gypsies. In this second album together, ''Cinderella's shoes'', you're going to find the same ingredientes than in their previous, but a little bit older & wiser: romantic tales, dirty fairy legends, bastardian nouvelle and kinky voudeville. If I were you, I wouldn't miss the ball. There is free bar, music never stops and the stepsisters are available after midnight. We are sure, these shoes are made for you.

WarPaint Live finds the Black Crowes running through their 2008 comeback Warpaint in its entirety during a gig in Los Angeles, adding a five-song coda of covers and Crowes classics. Warpaint was a reunion and revitalization for the Black Crowes, their best album in a long time, and much of that renewed energy can be heard in this performance, which manages to be loose and tight, the work of a band comfortable in its own skin and strength. Apart from the closing covers, highlighted by a coolly confident "Torn and Frayed" and a raucous "Hey Grandma," surprises are a bit hard to come by, but that's not a problem because the band never sounds tired; they're engaged, so it's hard not to be swept up in their enthusiasm too.

To put the performance on Johnny Cash at San Quentin in a bit of perspective: Johnny Cash's key partner in the Tennessee Two, guitarist Luther Perkins, died in August 1968, just seven months before this set was recorded in February 1969. In addition to that, Cash was nearing the peak of his popularity -- his 1968 live album, At Folsom Prison, was a smash success -- but he was nearly at his wildest in his personal life, which surely spilled over into his performance. All of this sets the stage for Johnny Cash at San Quentin, a nominal sequel to At Folsom Prison that surpasses its predecessor and captures Cash at his rawest and wildest. Part of this is due to how he feeds off of his captive audience, playing to the prisoners and seeming like one of them, but it's also due to the shifting dynamic within the band. Without Perkins, Cash isn't tied to the percolating two-step that defined his music to that point. Sure, it's still there, but it has a different feel coming from a different guitarist, and Cash sounds unhinged as he careens through his jailhouse ballads, old hits, and rockabilly-styled ravers, and even covers the Lovin' Spoonful ("Darlin' Companion"). No other Johnny Cash record sounds as wild as this. He sounds like an outlaw and renegade here, which is what gives it power -- listen to "A Boy Named Sue," a Shel Silverstein composition that could have been too cute by half, but is rescued by the wild-eyed, committed performance by Cash, where it sounds like he really was set on murdering that son of a bitch who named him Sue. He sounds that way throughout the record, and while most of the best moments did make it to the original 1969 album, the 2000 Columbia/Legacy release eclipses it by presenting nine previously unreleased bonus tracks, doubling the album's length, and presenting such insanely wild numbers as "Big River" as well as sweeter selections like "Daddy Sang Bass." Now, that's the only way to get the record, and that's how it should be, because this extra material makes a legendary album all the greater -- in fact, it helps make a case that this is the best Johnny Cash album ever cut.

Reissue of his album from 1963.

First full length in which the echoes of the Old West are combined with the Ireland of the Pogues, all watered by a lot of anarchy and cold beer. Because the mandolin rocks too. Because Woody Guthrie was punk before punks. For all that and more, William Folkners deserve a prominent place in the record collection of every self-respecting pro rocker.

The Slim Wild Boar comes from Rennes, Brittany, and he already has a few records out on USA labels (Dirty Ugly Records, Devil's Ruin Records). This one man band (two men band in fact: the boar plays with his shadow) delivers a great and deep-dark country-folk-blues.

His first album was a split with King Automatic. Here is the second album, a mix of country and folk.

New album from Blue Moon Marquee, the gipsy blues duo from the Badlands of the Canadian Rocky Mountain prairies. They are influenced by the most primitive blues, roots folk, swing and ragtime. A.W. Cardinal, a Metis from Cree, howls with a powerful voice and plays guitar influenced by both blues and jazz. Jasmine Colette, also known as Badlands Jazz, is the rhythm section that not only plays the double bass but also plays percussion with its feet. His fiery performances and fiery onstage chemistry are the trademark of the house, and what drives audiences wild.

Dan Wilson, lead singer with garage/blues rock n roll band The Cubical, returns with his second solo album, following the success of All Love is Blind, this time he’s backed by a rag time army of incredibly varied musicians, known as The Counterfactuals.

Like a long drag of hashish in the morning when the alarm clock rings in the open air, the synthesis that works in this album is aromatic, hypnotic, luminescent. somewhere between Hispalis and the Catalan Mediterranean.Spanish guitar and flamenco metonymies flourish on this transitional instrumental work that ablutions in flamenco waters, scented with folk-blues salts. This 1973 album is seminal in creating flamenco fusion.The arid but magnetic notes of the first track on the album, 'Sardana Flamenca' delve deeper into the subconscious, which Soler recorded on his own with his Spanish guitar, except the electric pieces where members of the band OM helped out. Reissued on vinyl for the first time. Includes an insert with notes and a rare Toti Soler photo.

Manu Gastado releases his first solo album, a blissful melodic wandering through a '60s-inspired psych haze. As part of Los Tupper, one of Spain's best-kept secrets, he has spent the last decades indebted to the Jagger/Richards mould, but, on Kosmik Street he has set his Stones obsession to one side to delve further into that classic late-'60s British sound. It's like Revolver spinning in the Small Faces dressing room, a wonderful disimilation and modern update of one of the most mind-bending times in music history. (Nathan Whittle- Ruta66 Magazine)

There’s nothing quite like a proper, good old-fashioned concept album. Across these two sides, Galicia’s Moura explore stories of their native land both traditional and personal, delving deep into the folk memories and the rituals of their exposed corner of Europe [...] Using music to preserve ideas of national identity in this way could come across as exclusive, but it actually feels welcoming, embracing and exhilarating to be part of Moura’s windswept world for 40 minutes.

Ben Vaughn's unstylized singing and guitar is filtered through his quirky sense of humor, resulting a collection of clever lyrics and catchy tunes scented with vintage aroma.When "The Many Moods Of Ben Vaughn Combo" appeared in 1986, the Combo literally had the world at its feet. Many of the hits you hear when you see him (and the Quintet) today are on this platter.It sounds just as fresh today as it did back then and sees now its first reissue in 35 years.

4 songs from this band from Madrid. own songs are riding on the backs of folk, western, country and bluegrass giving free rein to his fondness for the roots of the new continent and its stories of the old West.

2 unreleased songs, recorded at his ranch. 2 versions of songs that all or most of you will recognize passed through their filter.

First album by these lovers of traditional US Folk, Bluegrass, Old Time Country and IPA beers.

Some Kind Of Grit, is an expression that ironizes about those whose lives twist over and over again, until they fall down a spiral that seems to never end, without being very clear about where it takes you. That's why Javier chose it as the title of the album, because of everything he suffered after his debut album. At least he brought out a handful of songs, the ones that make up the A-side of the album and it is perfectly reflected in the evocative —albeit cryptic— cover designed by Galli Martini, which shines especially and logically on the vinyl's gatefold folder. The arid interior photography supposes that metaphorical crossing of the desert that sometimes you have to go through in order to be reborn from your ashes. And it is that, fortunately, after the storm, calm almost always arrives and the B-side is pure redemption, like the luminous «Stop Hurting Yourself», almost a declaration of principles adorned by guitars that can evoke Gram Parsons and his flying burritos.

We present the new album by the Barcelona band Los 4Señores, “De Tuset a Las Ramblas”, recorded at the “Sol de Sants” studios between June 19 and 24 and produced by Mike Mariconda. This is the second album by Los 4Señores, a band with seasoned members forged in the Barcelona scene of the 80s (Kamenbert, Killwatts, Wom! A2, Brighton 64) and on this occasion we are witnessing the sound of a group in clear evolution and progression of sound r&b and garage from his first LP towards new registers, always within his characteristic sound, based on powerful guitars and a powerful and forceful rhythm section. “De Tuset a Las Ramblas” contains 10 original songs and a version of “Bebiendo y Bailando” by the legendary band Mermelada. The sound palette of these compositions includes influences from 70's rock, pub rock, psychedelic overtones, country or rockabilly flashes, without Los 4Señores trying to exercise style. These influences dot the songs naturally, because that's how they emerged during the creative process of their composition. Without having premeditated it “From Tuset to Las Ramblas” is a conceptual album. All the themes of his lyrics allude to the city, in this case Barcelona, although it could be any other, to specific places in its landscape, and to the people who live there. In this citizen framework, we see the daily problems and joys of ordinary people, who interact in their streets, bars, or subway stations.

Torre Hornero Sessions is the first EP of the group from Zaragoza PETRELLI originally formed by Eduardo Tomás -Zomas– (drums) and Miguel Ángel Gutiérrez -Prise- (guitar) as sound base and musical projects. His weekly rehearsal venue in Movera, Zaragoza, gives this work its title, a place through which different musicians have passed and participated in enjoying sessions and exploring new sounds. Finally, this long-awaited album comes to light along with two other names from the Aragonese scene: Guillermo Mata (bass and production) and Eric Castiglia (vocals). Torre Hornero Sessions finished recording at the beginning of the year and was mixed in the midst of a pandemic, using videoconferencing and new technologies. It is made up of four songs heir to American rock and even punk rock. These vintage references add up to a fresh sound, with its own style, brand and class. In the musical background of PETRELLI, the composition of three instrumental songs stands out to accompany the audiovisuals of the exhibition on the Battle of Dunbar, pieces from the most important archaeological find that took place in 2016 in the North of England. The show was organized by the Durham University Department of Archaeology, and won the 2019 Living North Award.

Sadness Makes Me Less Unkind is the first album by Pale Preacher, artistic name of Francisco Galacho, singer and guitarist of the Malaga band The Blackberry Clouds. With this solo work, the author deepens as a composer and performer in the influences already evident in the second stage of The Blackberry Clouds, which began with Dry Wind (2012) -the first LP in which he assumed the role of lead singer and songwriter- and continued with Blood on her Boots… (2016) and Farewell Songs (2018), the latter two published by Clifford. On the one hand, it is music inspired by American roots, with a predilection for country and folk, and with artists like Townes Van Zandt or Johnny Cash from American Recordings as references; on the other, in the alternative rock of bands like The Sadies or Hugo Race & the True Spirit, which start from those "roots" to open new musical paths. Being the composer and practicing as a multi-instrumentalist, Francisco has been able to unleash his creativity, showing a greater desire for experimentation and interest in exploring different registers and styles. Sadness Makes Me Less Unkind is, therefore, a consciously eclectic album.

The previous LP, Sadness Makes Me Less Unkind, could be framed within the alt country and folk of bands like The Sadies or Mark Lanegan, while drawing on traditional influences from Johnny Cash to Townes Van Zandt. Although these influences continue to permeate the music of Pale Preacher, Hanged, Drawn, Quartered…, it is, in general, a denser and darker album, with angular electric guitar arrangements, closer at times to the early Bad Seeds or Kim Salmon and their respective reviews of roots music.

Formidable solo debut of the British musician established in Granada, Darren Joseph Anderson (ex Sunset Riders). 'Songs For Mystic Lovers' (Lucinda Records, 2022) is a lysergic journey full of mysticism through 60's Pop and Psychedelia with the vocal magnetism of Syd Barret, Ray Davies and Iggy Pop. Together with Darren (voice and guitars) they participate on the recording Javier Cantudo (drums), Javi Rodríguez (bass) and Antonio Ávila (keyboards). In his return to the front line of fire, the Briton has put all his skills at the service of the song, without discriminating whether it takes the form of a dark blues or a folk ballad, of acoustic preciosity or a potential pop single, giving shape to a work complex and beautiful, so timeless that it smells like a league classic.

Through the recent years of lockdowns and silence and having too much time to think, Tex Perkins always found solace in the company of song. Having his friend Matt Walker as a co-writer-conspirator, Perkins revelled in the experience which prompted the forming and recording of the first Fat Rubber Band album at Walker & #39’s Stovepipe Studios with bassist Steve Hadley, drummer Roger Bergodaz and percussionist Evan Richards. After such an affirmative and creative experience Perkins was itching to commence work on what has become the band’s second album, Other World. “The first Fat Rubber Band album was kind of deliberately a little ragged. A bit fuzzy around the edges” said Perkins. “There is a certain maturity that we now possess where ideas can be realised and take form very quickly. We’ve become a real band. I think what you heard on the first album is the band being formed.” While he’s played with many musicians, finding true collaborators is something that Perkins treasures. During the lockdowns, he pondered whether he would ever have that day-to-day musician experience again. With The Fat Rubber Band it’s not just another grouping of musicians playing music together, but a gathering that is very much about the head, heart and soul and something he is clearly grateful for. “Roger Bergodaz was incredible. His drum kit was in the control room and he engineered the record and played drums pretty much at the same time! He constantly created the surroundings where an enthusiastic and positive atmosphere always prevailed. We never came away empty handed. I loved making this record so much,” Perkins says, “because fucking magic happened. Yes, that’s right, magic or how about alchemy? (A medieval science with a mysterious process that seeks to turn base metals into Gold.) Well, I dunno about gold, but I witnessed ideas, thoughts, whims and imaginings transmute almost effortlessly into living breathing songs with a soul and a heartbeat and even their own private history every time we went into the studio for this recording. Actually, no, magic is better.” Perkins explains “This magic came about with the help of over 4O years of experience from each of the Fat Rubber band members. They’re all truly great players and they’re all really generous collaborators, so I guess what I’m saying is, it doesn’t matter what happens from here. I’m very aware these days, with 100s of new releases each week, it’s harder than ever to get people to give a shit about a new album from anybody, let alone from a bunch of hairy blokes in their 50s from Australia fronted by a dude that’s been around since the early eighties named Tex. Actually, I can’t believe you’re still reading this! But you know it doesn’t really matter, I’ve seen the magic.”
