THE GRIP WEEDS - "GIANT ON THE BEACH" (SUGARBUSH SB065), limited to
ONLY 300 copies on vinyl this is the first ever vinyl issue of this
classic 2004 album, previously only available on CD.
"This New Jersey band plays the kind of jangly, space-age rock perfected
by bands like the Zombies, Love, and the Quicksilver Messenger Service.
There are elements of the Byrds circa "Eight Miles High" or The
Notorious Byrd Brothers, Revolver-era Beatles, and San Francisco's
Haight-Ashbury bands. Start with the heavy reliance on lush harmonies,
mix in acoustic and electric guitars (complete with backward playing and
some Coltrane-esque twisting solos), an insistent rhythm track, and
ethereal lyrics, and the listener could easily believe himself lost in a
time warp." (popmetters.com review)
A fabulous album, to be sure, and pressed on 140gm audiophile virgin
vinyl, disc housed in lined inner outside the main cover for extra
protection. £22.99 only
