"A heavy selection of mod-rockers, garage and psych-funk tracks," runs the sub-title of new compilation series, encapsulating in a nutshell the multifarious pleasures on offer. And what better way to open such a set than with Van Broussard's banging titty-shaker "Mojo"? This is followed by The Little Bits' screaming garage-soul cut "Girl Give Me Love" (recorded when the band members were all between nine and twelve years old!) and Frozen Sun's "Jamm Pt.1" - a monster psych-soul number secretly laid down in the lobby of radio station KTKT (in Tucson, AZ) on a Sunday after midnight and about as aptly named as a track can get. Phlegethon's "You're No Good" provides cover song thrills by getting heavy-psychedelic on the Clint Ballard-penned classic, while yet more garage-soul delights are locked down by offerings from The Chapters, The Looking Glass and The Four. Closing the set is Pump's previously unreleased "Ashtray Candle 6:33" - a slow-grooving psych masterpiece. Once again, Chan the Man – previously the guiding light for Perfect Toy's Down & Wired series - was the driving force behind this project. It is his incredible knowledge, combined with the network of record collectors, DJs and vinyl nerds that he has established over the past few decades which have made it possible to come up with such a high-octane selection of super-heavy and extremely rare tracks. Accompanied by detailed liner notes and never-before-seen photos of the artists, Down In The Valley 1 sets the bar high for future volumes.
