Thanks for making this available, I've been trying to track this down for a while now.

Cheers, SamIam

hi Dgrador,

thanks for this nice post.

thanx a lot for these beauties! 41 tracks were not in my collection (of 15.000 entries, all strictly 60s), which is an eccellent result. Grazie 1000 and keep on posting the cool stuff!

hugs from Milano
Michael Vee

PS: I've just launched my blog "60s (mostly) Uncomped" w/ a selection of rare 60s tracks collected from various blogs, staring w/ a highly dancabele Mod-compimaltion. Have a look at www.60suncompiled.blogspot.com, download the mp3s & let me know your comments!

Dgrador said...

This "box" blew my mind on first listen. Don't know how the songs get avoided even on Canadian oldies radio.

Anonymous said...

excellent collections..love all 4 voulmes..would love more if anyone has more rare Canadian 60's stuff..great work!!!

Anonymous said...

I'm still downloading the stuff and haven't listened to it yet. But it seems like a job well done. I know about half of the bands. Some of them are quite well known. I'm pretty sure the some bands like The Guess Who, The Collectors & The Ugly Ducklings get some airplay not only on Canadian oldies radio stations but on any oldies radio around the world. But I never listen to the radio. American Woman by The Collectors is a huge classic and has been covered many times. A cover version by Lenny Kravitz was featured on the film American Beauty...

Son of Spam said...

Thanks for this, Dgrador. (Unfortunately, my downloads have expired after Volume 3...now I'll have to wait until tomorrow. Grrrr!)

Anyway, it's quite obvious the guy (Mikael Small, I presume?) put a lot of effort into this. I love the cover of the box as well as the covers of the individual discs!

Son of Spam said...

Having said that, I can't believe anyone would try to boycott it. Talk about petty!

Dgrador said...

The response here to WC has only been awesome. The boycott was a thread in Garagepunk's forum that discussed shares being offered for sale.

@le marquis:
You're confusing The Collectors with The Guess Who. Collectors morphed into 70's rock band Chilliwack.

Just stumbled onto your site...thought this set looked interesting...d/l the first one...I was right! Great stuff...thanks so much for sharing the music.

Thanx for these gems!!!

I'm 53, and growing up in Canada I saw quite a few of these bands live when they played school dances etc. It's a great collection!

Anonymous said...

Good lord! I'm really late finding my way to this, but holy crap it's amazing. Thanks for all these and Vol. 5!

Anonymous said...

Awesome stuff gentlemen! Thank you so much. I've got some Canadian stuff at my website if you're interested (Sugar shoppe, Kensington Market, Mandala etc) all 192kps and download directly from my site. There's more I was going to post but my hard drive crashed and I don't know when I'll get'er going again. Let's keep Canuck music alive!

Unknown said...

Tremendous posting. Thank you. As a ex-pat Canadian, this brings back many great memories.
Couple of requests- do you have '63 Monroe's "Stinkin' Out The Joint"? Also, any live Sloan would be great.
Thanks again,
Scott

Dgrador said...

I might have a copy of the demo version of Sloan's Underwhelmed but that's it.

Check The Archives for '63 Monroe.

A tip of my touque to the ole Boss Hoss for this fantastic collection, and of course thanks to you for a great blog. I've been a Can Con Collector for many many moons & have a continuing series of Canadian goodies called "Great White North" that I have spread around the web for a few years now, if you know where to look you can find them. I'm up to Vol 50 at the moment with lots more in the can. Again a big thanks for yours & all the other's who feature Canadian Sounds on their blogs.

PLPD !VJ!

jimmark66 said...

I wish I could find those Great White North compilations Vinyl Junkie...(I'm the guy who made Wyld Canada that is posted here) Could you help me find any if not all of the volumes? I have a podcast show(Jim's Child Of The '60s) and use Canadian '60s artists all the time..I would appreciate it

Jim

Subcomandante Marcos said...

Great collection!!
Cheers

Unknown said...

Hey VinylJunkie, I didn't even know you were still doing the Great White North. I picked up the first 44 of them and then they seemed to disappear forever.

Good News indeed!

Out In The Street said...

Thanks a ton, this is a great collection. I came across it looking for some DCT & The Shays tunes on the blogosphere after finding one of their lps and hit this jackpot.

damage not on flac like original
BOSS HOSS is the real star !!!
thx

Anonymous said...

I really enjoy mid-60s Nuggets-type Garage Rock & this is a treasure trove of stuff I never got a chance to hear down here in the Great American Southwest.

Thanks & kudos for putting this together - great song selection, good job on the mastering & very pro looking artwork!

If these downloads were available in a lossless format like FLAC, this would be perfect! (hint, hint)

Great Comps. Having trouble downloading Vol 5.

GaragePunk66 said...

I stumbled upon this collection searching for The Deverons and just wanted to thank you for all your hard work on this awesome collection of songs, truly wonderful!!!

Anonymous said...

Thanks! These are absolutely phenominal. Fuzzy, raw, and raucous. Just the way I like it. I missed out on Jims vol 5 though. Any chance of a re-up?

hi, great blog.... i have been unable to dl this from you. Could you possibly repost it? Thanks

reservatory said...

HEY, THANKS! I'm really looking forward to this. I made my own Canadian garage comp a couple of years ago, from Tokensurfer's YouTube posts, called Wild Canada! Great minds work in concert, I guess. Hopefully your sound quality is an improvement over YT's? I think you've got most of what I chose, with the exception of Underworld's unreleased follow-up to Go Away, The Strange Experiment of Dr. Jarrod, which I can post if anybody's interested. Somebody here might also like my one-disc best (worst?) of from the Prae-Kraut series, posted (under reservatory) @ Lucky Psychic Hut. THANKS AGAIN!

Dgrador said...

@ reservatory:

Post 'em if you got 'em.

The Bomber said...

yehe...late but not that late...glad to see you re still around and kicking...yes.

=)
