Cycle-Delic


Angel Dust: Music For Movie Bikers (1988)
A bad-ass compilation put together by UK artist Savage Pencil featuring superfuzzed "biker" tracks from Davie Allan and The Arrows and others recorded between 1966-70. The music is tied together with banter from bikers films (thus making it a gapless album in spots). The packaging is a real beauty, nice gatefold sleeve and picture disc vinyl. Angels die hard!

call me old school but I hate the "banter from films gapless album" stuff. Got several cool compilations -esp rockabilly comps- that have this and it's super annoying having to listen to someone croaning about this and that and the song starting about 2 minutes in...The Cramps Tribute Comp Series is a case in hand...However, that said, will try this: music for movie bikers sounds excellent!

I agree, I get sick of too much "banter" but this is not too bad. And the Davie Allan stuff is killer, especially "Cycle-Delic". I will get around to posting the Davie album one of these days.

Apols guys, but I'm gonna have to disagree, personally I like a bit of dialogue but do prefer it to be a seperate (small) track iyswim

Me, I love 'Satan' and the dialogue is okay too.

Liner notes from Steve Albini!
