RADIO TYMES – “British Pop On TV and Radio Lost And
Found, 1967 – 1969” (Top Sounds)
LP – TSLP 006£14.99
CD – TSSCD 006£12.99
Following three excavations of 1960s and early 70s BBC radio session
performances with the Shapes And Sounds anthologies, Top Sounds now move quite literally into ‘top gear’ with Radio Tymes. Sourced from proficiently
recorded reel to reel tapes and BBC transcription discs, Radio Tymes presents very rare and
desirable recordings from some of the 60s major players, and indeed some groups
who would find wider acclaim during the following decade. A band still going
strong today, Radio Tymes rewinds
back to the early days of DEEP PURPLE with the discovery of their first live performance ever broadcast on British
radio in mid 1968, as well as an incendiary number from the last session by the
original line-up. Superb recordings from THE YARDBIRDS’ final BBC session in 1968,
including the legendary ‘Dazed And Confused’, finally appear in excellent
quality, and unbelievably a document of JIMI HENDRIX singing live on Simon
Dee’s Dee Time TV programme has
surfaced which has not been heard anywhere since 1967. Two great tunes by THE MOVE from the first ever Top Gear provide ample proof as to why
they are regarded as one of the most revered groups of the era, and from the
very same programme psychedelic heroes TOMORROW with KEITH WEST play their
underground anthem My White Bicycle. The live version of Sabre Dance that initiated LOVE SCULPTURE’s top ten single accompanies two other fantastic covers from their colourful
repertoire, and BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST add more fuel to the fire with the quite perfect and upbeat ‘Night’.
All the music has been professionally restored, with the Deep Purple
tunes having been worked on at Abbey Road Studios no less, and the results of
restoring music from old reel to reel tapes in particular is startling to say
the least. Radio Tymes is a
legitimate collection licensed from the BBC and the relevant record companies,
and as per usual the LP comes with a 16 page booklet whilst the CD has a bulging
32 page book full of illustrations and
information.
