Counter Culture 76- Rough Trade Shops - Various. CD. (V2 - VVR1040762) Looking Back, 1976 was an Intake of Breath, a Moment Before the Explosion of Punk and New Wave that Continues to Reverberate. Alongside Some of the Great Music of the Time, in this Collection We also have the Sonic Evidence of the Growing Opposition to the Establishment - the 60's Psyche and Folk Influence is Here in the Form of the Flamin' Groovies and the Mcgariggle Sisters, but Garage Rock is Evolving Into Something Altogether More Spiky with the Saints and Radio Birdman, While the Longstanding Avant Garde and Art Rock Movements, Epitomised Here by the Penguin Cafe Orchestra and Ivor Cutler, Sit a Little Uncomfortably Next to the Carefree Disco of Candi Staton and Bootsy's Rubber Funk. A truly eclectic mix.
