All these 1960s New Zealand bands were new to me, and most songs provide decent attempts to ape British Beat groups, particularly The Beatles and other Merseybeat outfits – kinda fun to hear so many fake Liverpudlian accents! Energy, enthusiasm and a degree of garage punk genius are also to be found in abundance. I hope there will be more compilations like this one, one can perhaps hope for a spotlight on New Zealand Psychedelia-
