Decent collection of '60's garage rock staples.But,come on!Ten songs?You record labels can squeeze over seventy minutes of music on a disc now.Should be at least five to ten more tracks here.I mean,some of us are too lazy or busy to step over to change the disc after a measly 26 minutes.

Hey guys, before you complain about there only being 10 tracks., read the details of the item for sale. It is a cassette and not a CD...

As the previous reviewer pointed out, there's only 10 tracks on the CD.

That's definitely a negative; especially considering some of the similar CD sets that are available from companies like Rhino Records. (If you're into this type of music, a much better value is the multiple CD boxed "Nuggets" set from Rhino records.)

Fortunately, the tracks themselves are good ones. Even Target has been using one of the tracks in some of it's current TV ads. Anyone who's into 60's garage band stuff will certainly enjoy this CD, although it's a bit of a ripoff pricewise for only 10 songs.

These bands are not at all unknowns, in fact most have been well documented and some of the titles were big hits in the 60's. They are mostly very cool tunes, precursers to later and current musical styles, well worth a listen today.

I have this album and it's a compulanion of unknown bands. Most of it is pretty interesting with some cuts better than others. The best part of this album is you get to hear beginning bands their first time out.
