Explosion, also known as Equals Explosion, is the second album by the Equals, released in December 1967. Probably most notable for: "Police on My Back" In 1980, the Clash recorded a cover version of the song for their album Sandinista!,[1][2] and turned "the mid-paced soul-pop song into a charged-up, full-powered rocker".[3] Their version featured guitarist Mick Jones on lead vocals, and was released as a single, but only in Australia. It was described as a "punk anthem at a time of political and social repression", and as their "most full-throated rock song since I Fought The Law." - Wikipedia #TheEquals #EddyGrant #PoliceOnMyBack #TheClash #Beat #Mod #60sPop #Music

Something Else from the Move is a five-track live EP by the English pop band the Move, released on 21 June 1968 through Regal Zonophone. The Move established themselves with a series of singles that reached the top-five in the UK singles chart, generating hype for an album. After rumours about a live LP began circulating, the Move's manager Tony Secunda pitched an idea about recording an EP of live performances at the Marquee Club in central London. Reflecting the Move's setlist on stage, Something Else from the Move is exclusively made up of covers of songs by contemporary pop bands such as Love and 1950s singers such as Eddie Cochran. The EP has an eclectic blend between rockabilly and psychedelic music. - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Fl065L5lSA&list=RD2Fl065L5lSA&start_radio=1 #TheMove #TheByrds #Psychedelia #EddieCochran #Music #Beat #Mod #BritishInvasion #SpookyTooth #JerryLeeLewis

Emotions is the third album by the English rock group The Pretty Things, released in 1967. Emotions Review by Matthew Greenwald The Pretty Things were one of the most underrated rhythm & blues bands to come out of the mid-60's British rock explosion. So well-loved by Brits, they were often thought of in the same breath as The Rolling Stones. And, like a lot of great rhythm & blues based groups to come put of England, they stepped somewhat uneasily into the precarious psychedelic music explosion. However, in all fairness, The Pretty Things did come up with a pretty fine and original album, Emotions. Superbly well-orchestrated (especially the gorgeous "The Sun," one of the album's standouts), The Pretty Things didn't lose sight of their R&B leanings, as tracks such as "There Will Never Be Another Day" show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_lYqTA-lj0&list=RDK_lYqTA-lj0&start_radio=1 #ThePrettyThings #Mod #Beat #Psychedelia #Music #BritishInvasion #1967
