Fab gear : The British beat explosion and its aftershocks 1963-1967

"In conclusion, Fab Gear is another great collection of 60s ephemera, with lots of swell and hard to find music. There have been a lot of Freakbeat, Mod and Psychedelic compilations over the years and while on the whole it is great to have those sort of records around, it is also refreshing to hear bands that "slipped through the cracks so to speak. Presented in a book format with the individual stories of each track and artist, this is just what the doctor order for 1960s nuts and greying moptops, who will benefit greatly from both the intriguing stories and groovy sounds aboard compiled by the ever-knowing boffins of RPM. Bravo!".
