The Day After The Sabbath 15 & 16


This is a repost of two older comps. I have renamed them and changed the artwork a little to bring them in line with the TDATS series. Great chance to grab these ones if you haven't already, and don't worry, there's plenty of brand new volumes in the pipeline so stay tuned.....

With this compilation I have attempted to compile some tracks that were all released before 1970. I find this brief period in the late 60s fascinating and here are a few lesser-known bands who were playing hard around that time, along with a couple of tracks from well-known bands that fit into the sound.
(EDIT in 2022: Tucky Buzzard is not '60s, it was recorded in 1971....apologies from my 2010 self!)

01) Tucky Buzzard - Heartbreaker - 1971 
02) Fuse - Show Me - 1968
03) Fields - Take You Home - 1969
04) Pulse - Hypnotized - 1969
05) The 31 Flavors - Distortions Of Darkness - 1969
06) Aguaturbia - Rollin And Tumblin - 1969
07) Gun - It Won't Be Long (Heartbeat) - 1968
08) Taste - Same Old Story - 1969
09) Mount Rushmore - Toe Jam - 1969
10) Cuby + Blizzards - Appleknockers - 1969
11) -
12) The Firebirds - No Tomorrows - 1969

The Day After The Sabbath 14 compilation


Download from [mf] or [mg]
pass:  tdats



TDATS 14, another primordial concoction from the lost land of the rock dinosaurs. This one kicks off with the purplish hard prog of I Drive, a mainly english band who played and recorded in Germany. Bubble Puppy enters the frey with with some of the hardest riffing 60s psych there was, Riders Of The Mark is even older than that and while not heavy in the same sense, it has that oninous foreboding feeling that metal would use later on. Colosseum displays infectious groove that would be sampled by Fatboy Slim years later. "Solid Ground" were a Swedish band who made one private press record in 1976, so not to be confused with the German band "My Solid Ground". Track 12 is the customary cover, this time sludge-punks Killdozer's 1989 cover of a James Gang classic. Canadian Neil Merryweather (also a founder of Mama Lion, on TDATS XI) finishes up with the entertaining mix of glam, metal, space rock and prog that he would make his own on his 'Space Ranger' and 'Kryptonite' albums.

01. I Drive - Down Down Down - 1972
02. Bubble Puppy - Hot Smoke and Sassafras - 1969
03. Starz - Boys In Action - 1976
04. Riders Of The Mark - The Electronic Insides... - 1967
05. Colosseum - The Kettle - 1969
06. Neon Rose - Waiting For The Train - 1974
07. Asoka - Psykfoni For Ekogitarr Och Poporkester - 1971
08. Stud - Woman Like You - 1975
09. Hustler - Midnight Seducer - 1974
10. Solid Ground - Tell Me - 1976
11. Paris - Breathless - 1975
12. Killdozer - Funk #49 (James Gang cover) - 1989
13. Neil Merryweather - Sole Surviver - 1974

Thanks for listening!
