    Last Of The Garage Punk Unknowns Volumes 3 & 4

    I seem to remember that this series was initially planned to 8 volumes... would that mean that those new comps would be the last Crypt comps ever ? :(

    early garage collectors questions

    that's indeed a phenomenon I now figure out, as I've been "encountering" quite a few past garage collectors, very active in the 80s, but who've since then dropped or gone to some other fields of interest. Most have gone into soul, country or R&B, and dont wanna spend a minute upon their past...

    early garage collectors questions

    that's great from you, thanks. But I think it would be just like impossible to have a relaxed conversion over the phone, from switzerland and my pidgin spoken english, the bad sound quality, and the fact that he's first to be convinced to talk. I actually just contacted Carl again, to ask him if...

    early garage collectors questions

Which just sucks, as it's once again a whole part of the garage history that gonna soon sink into oblivion. Which is why I'm trying to contact him directly, in...

    early garage collectors questions

    Thanks guys. Jules Normington was in the pipeline of mine, as I as aware he's been "transferring" tons of garage 7''s from the US to Australia back in the 80s. But I didn't know he used to be in touch with D.Gibson, which is great news. And I just got news from Rich, which is fab.

    Gail Anderson

    hey there. Probably a very novice question for some of you, but hey, I'm learning everyday... I heard about Gail Anderson thru another very early garage collector, telling me he'd been in touch with him as soon as the early 70s. I couldn't find any infos regarding this guy while googling, still...
