Reissue of this absolutely classic compilation of psychedelic and garage gems from the mid-‘60s compiled by Jack Holzman and music historian Lenny Kaye. First released in 1972 on Elektra Records, this compilation is among the only 'various artists’ titles to consistently wind up on published lists of ‘all-time top albums’. Nuggets spawned more than 200 like-minded collections under such titles as Pebbles and Back From The Grave, and is a consistent compilation favourite and has carved out a genre of its own.
Tracks include “I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night” (Electric Prunes), “Dirty Water” (The Standells), “Lies” (The Knickerbockers), “Pushin' Too Hard” (The Seeds), “Hey Joe” (The Leaves), “Let's Talk About Girls” (Chocolate Watch Band) and more. Nuggets remains quite possibly the most influential compilation released during the Rock 'N Roll era.
Pressed on a limited psychedelic vinyl.
