Description

Sealed, long out of print, 500 pieces limited and numbered double LP + 7" EP deluxe edition on the SHADOKS label, containing 28 previously unreleased tracks. It will definitely be soon out of print and a future rarity.

Public Nuisance might be an obscure name to all but a few Northern California hipsters, but once the rest of the world gets to hear this amazing collection of previously unissued high energy psychedelic rock & roll from 1968, they will never forget it.

Public Nuisance was a unique garage/psych phaenomenon. They began in Sacramento in 1964 as the Jaguars, made two rare 45s as Moss & The Rocks (both of which are included on this compilation), and then became PUBLIC NUISANCE for the rest of the decade; dressed in black with ultra long-hair - sort of a proto-Ramones look - and playing a fascinating blend of punky garage tinged psychedelic rock & roll, with total Who/Small Faces energy and a Seeds/Music Machine monomania, all topped with some of the coolest guitar and lyrics you can imagine. As heavy as the Stooges, as freaky as the Airplane, as direct as the Creation. Signing to Terry Melchers Equinox Productions in late 1968, they recorded two lengthy sessions that constiutute some of the most kinetic and engaging recordings of the psychedelic era. The group completed a full-length album that was set to make Public Nuisance a national sensation when the Manson family scared Melcher into dropping his projects and going into hiding, causing the breakup of the band. Yes, this is the lp that didn't get released because of the Sharon Tate murder!!! So tracks like "Darlin'", "Daddy's Coming Home", "Katie Shiner" and "Gotta Survive"are gems that have lain buried and unknown until now, and after hearing Public Nuisance you're gonna wonder how you ever lived without 'em!
