Kick Out The Jams

The Liverbirds: stealing the show on Let’s Stomp...

Various Artists

Let’s Stomp!

Merseybeat And Beyond 1962-1969

Cherry Red CRJAMBOX 014 (3CD) 

Merseybeat gave us The Beatles, Gerry And The Pacemakers and The Searchers but it’s far more than a footnote in their stories. For during the first half of the 60s, it was the soundtrack to where the action was, giving rise to the birth of the UK beat scene. Local teens got their kicks putting their distinct Scouse stamp on US rock’n’roll, R&B and Motown in tiny sweaty clubs: the Cavern, the Jacaranda, the Iron Door etc while also honing their craft at the infamous Star-Club in Hamburg. What an absolute thrill it must have been to witness.

ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACKERS

In 1975, 10cc and Queen reigned supreme with I'm Not In Love and that also happened to be the Christmas No 1. But how did both Bohemian Rhapsody. The former was the chart-topping sound of the game-changing singles happen that year, and which, wonders Paul summer and a production landmark, the latter a multi-part song-suite McNulty, remains the most revolutionary example of 70s songcraft?

33½ minutes with...Brinsley Schwarz

It's 60 years since Brinsley Schwarz made his recording bow, a handful of singles with the semi-psychedelic pop band Kippington Lodge, but he became a more visible presence later in the decade when he lent his name to the pub rock figureheads who also included Nick Lowe in their number.
