An extremely rare compilation by various bands headed by producer/engineer PIERRE TUBBS and recorded in his converted garage between 1966 and 1968. Here is an amazing range of musical style, from pop through R 'n' B and psychedlic.

Pierre Tubbs started working for United Artists in 1967 in his role of Creative Manager and during the period that followed he penned a hit song for Al Matthews ("Fool") in 1975 and subsequently Maxine Nightingale "Right Back Where We Started From".

This compilation draws from his period at UA and his earliest days at Strike Records, an independent founded in the wake of Andrew Loog Oldham's Immediate.

" ... reveals an auteur with few peers. Pierre Tubbs' previously unacknowledged talent is finally getting its proper due."
