Been thinking alot lately about how many artists comped on BFTG have had full lengths/e.p.'s come out posthumously as a result of their profile being lifted by Grave inclusion. I also think it's awesome how alotta the rare singles from BFTG also have merited legit/exact reissues (NOT the shoddy "garage greats" treatment)
I figured it might be fun to have a master list of BFTG artists' stand-alone releases, the ones that feature notes/pic sleeves/other bells & whistles. These also are records where about half the tracks are previously un-reissued (or at the very least, records that feature more songs beside whatever Grave track made each group "famous").
So here's an attempt to do that. I'm sure i have forgotten some, so i will come back to this thread from time to time and re-edit it so it will be complete:
Monocles 10" on Arcania International
Travel Agency 7" (exact re. on Break-A-Way)
Tyme 7" on Crypt
Benders single (exact re. by the band [?] )
Montells/Evil split l.p.
Bojax 10" on Misty Lane
The Syndicate c.d.
Outspoken Blues c.d.
Ralph Neilsen & The Chancellors e.p. on Crypt
Disco Still Sucks l.p. by Swamp Rats on Get Hip
Royal Flairs/Unlimited split l.p. on Midwest Productions label
Alarm Clocks 10" on Norton
Hallmarks download-only (?) e.p. on Numero Group
Billy & The Kids (exact re. of their first single with new pic sleeve)
Rising Tides 7" on Feathered Apple
Mustangs c.d.
Spiders e.p. on Sundazed
Ty Wagner 7" on Ugly Things label
Bunker Hill e.p. on Old Days label
Larry & The Blue Notes - "The Major Bill Tapes" l.p.
The Sloths' single (exact re. on Ugly Things and Sundazed)
Tonto & The Renegades e.p. on Misty Lane
JuJu's - various l.p.'s on various labels
Cords' "Ghost Power" double 7" on Oktay Records
One Way Streets e.p. on B-W
Sir Winston & The Commons e.p. on Sundazed
The Mods single (an exact re. of the Toledo, Ohio group's releas; Misty Lane)
Unrelated Segments - various l.p.'s
The Chancellors - exact re. of this upstate NY band's D&C label single on Norton
Cave Dwellers single (exact re. on Numero Group, with new [?] pic sleeve)
Nightcrawlers from Minnesota - 7" on Feathered Apple
Special mention:
The Etiquette label Christmas album - this has The Sonics' "Santa Clause" which is on BFTG vol. 4; Etiquette kept this in print for a long time. I'm pretty sure Big Beat or some similar label has continued to keep it in print (that is, if Etiquette is no longer putting out records; maybe they still are?)
