Cat. No. 1990: TAMAM SHUD ~ LIVE IN CONCERT - JULY 2, 1972. CANETOAD RECORDS CD-034.

OUT OF STOCK

ORIGINALLY A SURF BAND CALLED “THE SUNSETS”, TAMAM SHUD CAME INTO BEING IN EARLY 1968 AS A RESULT OF THE FRUSTRATIONS EXPERIENCED BY THE GROUP MEMBERS OVER CERTAIN BOOKING AGENTS INDIFFERENCE TO THEM. THE BAND’S EXPOSURE TO THE NEW MUSIC EMANATING FROM (PARTICULARLY) AMERICA PROVIDED A BROADER BASE ON WHICH TO EXPAND. THEIR CHANGE IN STYLE SAW THE GROUP PROVIDING THE SOUNDTRACK FOR PAUL WITZIG’S SURFING FEATURE TITLED “EVOLUTION”. IN THE PERIOD 1968-1972 THE GROUP OBTAINED A MASSIVE CULT FOLLOWING WHICH RESULTED IN SEVERAL ALBUMS. WHILST THE AUDIO IS NOT OPTIMUM THIS RECORDING IS VERY LISTENABLE. JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES AND TAKE A TRIP BACK IN TIME TO THE DAYS OF FLOWER POWER AND AN EVOLUTION IN THE DIRECTION OF POP MUSIC. COMES WITH A 16 PAGE BOOKLET FULL OF LINER NOTES AND PHOTOS. VERY GOOD !!!!!
