Superb ten track compilation of Spacemen 3's rare B-sides and oddities. I've always said that I like the band's compilation titles better than I do their actual albums. This title smokes! I don't even remember half these cuts. Tunes I found myself playing repeatedly were their seventeen-minute cover of the Thirteenth Floor Elevators "Roller Coaster", the title track "Translucent Flashbacks", MC 5 / Sun Ra's eleven-minute "Starship" and "Soul 1". Whoa! Just when I honestly thought I've heard all of Spacemen 3's material. Well worth checking out. A classic neo-psychedelia must-have, very much so.
