? Some of the earliest releases in Big Beat's Nuggets
From The Golden State series were based around
the output of top San Francisco recording facility,
Golden State Recorders. The latest instalment in the
series, "Golden State Psychedelia", continues to
celebrate the studio's legacy, restoring material
from deleted volumes as well as exhuming more
psychedelic gems from the GSR vault.
? Aside from rare singles by the Tow-Away Zone and
Seventh Dawn, "Golden State Psychedelia" is
comprised wholly of material that went unreleased,
though not for reasons of musical quality. As studio
boss and producer Leo Kulka said, the sheer
volume of acts in the San Francisco of the era meant
pitching material to labels became increasingly
difficult. Nevertheless, Kulka gave bands a
professional home in which to record, and the
contents of "Golden State Psychedelia", all
recorded between 1966 and 1970, reflect the freaky,
experimental flavour of the times.
? Highlights include the commercial pop-psych
stylings of the Bristol Boxkite, Carnival and Ticket
Agents, the punkadelic Goody Box and Immediate
Family, and some truly outrageous studio
experiments by Magician and the Gants. The
package comes with the usual copious notes one
expects of the Nuggets series, and will delight any
aficionado of late 60s arcane West Coast
psychedelia.
