Pues empezamos el año arrollando, con las fuerzas y la moral a tope, dispuesto a llenaros este disco duro nuevo que os habéis pillado el año pasado, y sin ningún género de dudas, esta colección que hoy os presento la deben de tener todos los amantes de la música independientemente de sus gustos, pues es realmente una enciclopedia de lo que se íen la música en los años sesentas, con algunas ligeras incursiones en otras décadas.
Todo empezó cuando un amigo desconocido me pidió esta colección, y trasteando por la red para ver si encontraba los enlaces para evitarme la faena de subírselo, me di cuenta de que apenas existía información sobre la misma, solamente la encontré en el legendario blog "Fuzzywasabi", que entre 2006 y 2011 fue uno de los mejores y gracias al cual conocí muy buena música, seguro que sin blogs como este, "Tommentón En La Cuadra" nunca hubiese existido.
Pues esta colección me la debí de bajar de este blog, pues nunca mas lo he visto por ningún lado, y toda la información que aquí pongo la he sacado de allí.
Según parece esta colección la realizó un tal Sylvain FuzzyMental y en edición CD con una tirada de solo 15 ejemplares, numerados a mano por el mismo.
Pues en total son 25 volúmenes que presentaremos en 2 partes, para no saturar en exceso, y cada uno de estos volúmenes está dedicado a los diferentes estilos de la época sesentera: sicodelia, garage, beat, acid-folk, pop-sike, música europea, asiática, freakbeat, pre-krautt, etc. etc.
No os comento mas, creo que con los subtítulos de cada volumen y los track-lists ya tenéis mas que suficiente para leer.
