ARTIST : SUMMER SOUNDS

TITLE : UP - DOWN

LABEL : LAUREL

FORMAT : LP 

COVER CONDITION : VG nice & solid with some edge chipping & creases along the spine. not much ring wear, just general signs of handling over the years. 

VINYL CONDITION : VG- scuffs, surface marks, and a few worse scratches. lots of gloss left and its not wrecked. still sounds loud & proud thanks to the crazy thick high quality pressing. plays waaay better then it looks without even much surface noise… hear for yourself…

NOTES : way rare original copy of this new england downer garage jewel. not one to totally grab you on first listen, but an amazingly perfect encapsulation of the moody ZOMBIES inspired new england garage sound. not terribly punk or psych, but powerfully earnest & effective with up-front farfisa organ, endlessly bittersweet harmonies, tremolo guitar, and awesome simple bass/drum underpinning. consistently strong, and features only two non original numbers (including a zombies cover.) sounds & looks way more like ‘66 then ‘69! quite unusual for a garage long player, this is a concept album about summer love found & lost, heavy on the lows. awesome album. 100 pressed?! not a perfect copy but a sweet player for somebody who wants to actually listen to the record without spending a grand+. highly rated in the acid archive, pokora, and just about everywhere else… with good reason. awesome album & essential for fans of THE RISING STORM, BACHS, SAVAGES, ALL OF THUS, MYSTERY MEAT, etc.!

sit back, turn it up, chill out for a few moments, and listen to a full track or two from the actual album listed :
