BREAK OUT THE BUNTING!

We’re still discovering gem after hidden gem within Joe Meek’s mythical archive known as the Tea Chest Tapes – including this week’s choice track ‘Bye Bye Baby Bunting’ by Flip & The Dateliners. Unreleased back in the mid-1960s, this female-led garage pop nugget is one of 88 recordings on the new 3-CD compilation Too Far Out – Beat, Mod & R&B from 304 Holloway Road 1963-1966. The set includes numerous unreleased finds plus unissued versions and takes of others. Drop us a line if you’d like to hear more.

Track Of The Week

FOXY FRIENDS

Noosha Fox and friends injected some sophisticated glamour into the UK charts of the mid-1970s. Fox‘s ‘Only You Can’ peaked at No. 3 while ‘S-S-S Single Bed‘ peaked one place lower. ‘If I Point At The Moon’, taken from their 1975 self-titled album, is a lilting, sublime pop ditty that sounds remarkably timeless. The song is featured in the US drama mini-series A Friend Of The Family, which aired recently on the Peacock network.
