Rhino's stellar series of Nuggets sets exists to rescue all the hundreds and hundreds of unappreciated bits of punked-up garage-rock weirdness that the 60s left behind. And you'd never believe how much of this stuff there is. On September 22, Rhino will release the latest entry in this series, Where the Action Is! Los Angeles Nuggets 1965-1968. It's four CDs dedicated entirely to snarly fuzz-bombs created in L.A. during a four-year period. On paper, that's an incredibly specific set of specifications, but the Rhino folks have still rounded up 101 songs that fit the bill.
The set, which includes an info-packed coffee table book, includes everyone from Time-Life staples like the Doors and Sonny & Cher to relatively unheralded but awesomely named groups like the W.C. Fields Memorial Electric String Band, London Phogg, and the Everpresent Fullness. Pitchfork heroes like the Beach Boys, Captain Beefheart, Love, and Lee Hazlewood also make appearances. The set also includes three previously unreleased tracks, including one from Tim Buckley.
