49TH PARALLEL - VINYL SINGLES [VINYL]

Popis - SINGLES [VINYL]:
Limited to 500 copies, this LP offers all of 49th Parallel's singles, B-sides and rare alternate recordings on vinyl for the first time since their initial pressings back in 1966-'68! The band's first single, 'All Your Love', was recorded in 1966 as the Shades Of Blond and it was previously only available on a staggeringly rare EP featuring Calgary bands. Their debut as 49th Parallel came with 'Laborer' b/w 'You Do Things' in mid 1967, followed by 'She Says' b/w 'Citizen Freak' in early 1968. These four tracks are hard-edged garage punk outings, tough, and thick with fuzz guitar and a defiant sneer. The next single, 'Blue Bonnie Blue' b/w 'Missouri' appeared in the late spring of 1968. In spring 1969, the beautiful 'Twilight Woman' b/w 'Close The Barn Door' zoomed up the charts across Canada and parts of the USA. Both 'Twilight Woman' and the hit follow-up, 'Now That I'm A Man' b/w '(Come On Little Child &) Talk To Me' are melodic slices of pop/psych of the purest and finest kind. One more post-LP single and a couple of rare tracks round out the story. These fifteen tracks will delight anyone who's into the 49n Parallel's late '60s album, and this style of music in general.
