Two words on the shrink-wrap sticker on "Nuggets II," a Rhino Records box set, say it all: The collection, four CDs each running more than an hour, contains "no hits."

In the record industry -- heck, even in the world of box sets, which are often filled with filler -- this would seem to be apostasy. No hits? Why would anybody want to buy a box set with no hits? You may as well manufacture CD-sized Frisbees.

But there is a method to Rhino's madness. After all, this box set follows in the tradition of "Nuggets," four CDs of 1960s American garage band music from the same era, based on the famous 1972 double-LP compiled by Lenny Kaye.

That box set ran the gamut from national hits -- the Count Five's "Psychotic Reaction," the Beau Brummels' "Laugh Laugh" -- to regional obscurities such as the Merry-Go-Round's "Live" and the Sonics' "Strychnine," all celebrating the DIY ethic of countless Beatles/Stones wannabes.
Time to head to the record store....
Rhino records is one of the very few companies I still give me money to in reguards to music.

I dig that kind of music, I have those songs you mentioned on a disc called Highs of the sixties along with:


Love - 7 and 7 is
Electric Prunes - To Much to Dream Last Might


Rhino is cool the sell the new Doors label "Bright Midnight Records" There are 9 new Doors albums out there now but you can only get them from the doors website, or me. ;) They had some legal battles w/ elektra and won. yay!
