You outdone yourself again Roddus. Well done and thanks for sharing this rarity out of your CD collection with us. I don't know which one is rarer - this one or the Feel Lucky Punk? Both are fine specimens.

Will listen to this later on tonight my friend and sure you will get alot of feedback on this one.

Chow for now

Now here is some really great "draught" music, strongly recommended to all of you out there.

I used to have both albums on vinyl years back so really appreciate getting this, many many thanks.

Cool, this is getting downloaded fast, my most popular post yet. Not sure why part two is lagging behind, maybe they only want half of it?

The feel Lucky Punk is much more rarer, and also less knowen than this one.

hi Tokumaru,

so cool that you appreciate this comp, it is one of the strongest comps from the late 60s, and one of my favorites also

I've been trying to reconstruct the Rock Machine - I Love You Album for many months, the only cut missing is 11. The Tihai, excerpt the - Don Ellis and his Orchestra (Shock Therapy) track. Any ideas on this one?

Roddus said...

Sorry S.R, had a quick look for this one and found the album it came off on a blog but the link was dead, and quite old, of course the Cd only had some of the tracks from both albums.

S.R. Management,

I have the track you need and gonna wait awhile so that I can let Roddus take in how popular this album is. Coz it's going down a treat.

Thanks for your patience and we aren't going anywhere 2 soon ;]

I bought Rock Machine Turns You On on Vinyl when it first came out (I think it cost me 14s 6d), and I've still got it. I've decided to put it together in mp3 format so many thanks for the download. I already had some of the tracks so only a few more to find.
I was never as impressed with Rock Machine I love You though there were some great tracks on it.

To S R Management: did you ever find 11. The Tihai, excerpt the - Don Ellis and his Orchestra (Shock Therapy) track ?
