Definitely. I'd also include the 'Smile, Let Your Life Begin' / 'When I Was A Apple' 45 on UNI.
Were there other Factory releases?

If the Hooterville Trolley is included shouldnt the Creation 45 (Centurion 3002) be as well?

Does anyone have this 45? I never came across it when logging data from record collections

The collector mind went into a spin when that Creation 45 surfaced via Brain Shadows... because the writer credit was "Phillips", as in Eddie Phillips of the UK Creation! :confused: A real enigma hovered over the thing, until it turned out that the Creation/Phillips thing was just a coincidence, albeit an unlikely one, or what we here in Psychedelphia call synchronicity. As the Hooterville 45 shows the writer was actually one Ernest Phillips, not Eddie, and apparently there was a Creation in the US too.
That said, it is still a very odd release. Maybe it isn't American after all.

The version is quite different from the Hooterville DJ fave.

here's what is said about them in the liners of BRAIN SHADOWS vol.1 LP:
THE CREATION
No Silver Bird / The Warmth of Love
Centurion 3002
From New Mexico, this group evolved into the Hooterville Trolley and Magic Sand. No Silver Bird was recorded under all three names, but on the Magic Sand LP on UNI they renamed the track Get ready to fly

1st heard it on Brainshadows, too, where the booklet shows the 45 label. Seems to be an elusive one.
Sylvain: What do you have logged on the two Brainshadows volumes. Patchy set list, but I liked the psych-theme on mid-90s comps like these, the two High All the Time Volumes, Psych Experience... Too bad about the strangely oversized sleeves for Brainshadows. They look like kids wearing their older siblings clothes. And shabby clothes at that, as most copies seem to have a massive seam-split due to the XL-sleeves.

greg, side A of Brainshadows 2 is fantastic, with some marvelous moody and punk-folk treasures, and the psych selection is really good as well. Vol.1 is not as great; this reminds me exactly what happened with the Psychedelic Crown Jewels comps on Comet/Gear Fab; a patchy late-60s/ heavy psych vol.1, followed by two extraordinary volumes of rainy psychedelia and moody garage. Will anyway do a special post in the other thread focused on the psych comps as soon as I've put the Acid Dreams story on line (tonight).
Oh, and my copies of Brainshadows are both in perfect non-splitted condition... probably because I got them nearly first-hand, from a dealer in touch with the guy behind.

Is it Miguel R who was behind Brain Shadows? I thought it was a pretty good series and was really knocked out by things like the Zendik 45 and "Trivialities" by Flower Power... only had the CDs though. The mix between early hardrock and jingle-jangle '65 pop became somewhat jarring so I ended up transferring the best tracks and selling the CDs... a number of good tracks, but as comps they didn't play through that well IMO.

Anyway you can post a larger file? This one is a bit too small. It's GREAT that there's a photo of them...

I remember when Dave B. contacted one of the Hooterville Trolley guys in the '90s, - he never mentioned doing an earlier recording or version of "No Silver Bird", just that both songs were recorded down at Norman Petty's studio in Clovis.

I need to make this official: it boggles the mind that the malicious "ooh-bee-dee-baaaaa" torture that is the revolting Don't Say by the Night Riders ended up on the TBM Top 1000. There, I said it. It stinks.

I agree. Ive always had the opinion that it's very over-rated.
I'm thinking of pasting it over with a scan of the monster "Mr. Rolling Stone" by the Hard Times, which shockingly didn't make it.
Cabinet vote tally discrepancies are no fault of MTM by the way, goes without saying. In general I think the vote results are excellent, and a very reliable guide.

Oh no blood on MTM's hands! Or the cabinet, rating system, book or anything BUT the bloody song.

I must make it very clear - it is a very fun book when one considers the amount of numbers in it.
It invites further investigations by yourself.
Love all the Honorable Mentions and stuff like that.
The top 1000 is what I'm plowing through atm. Just that one is a great addition to the tome.
I remember how I browsed the shit out of Joynsons FA&F. Took me a couple'a years.
This (together with Lundborg's AA) will suffer an even more pagetornading fate. Here's hoping for a new pressing 5 years from now.
And it is a goddamn honour to be able to talk to both authors!
