simla beat 70/71, india 1970 and 1971

2CD
Simla Beat is an India compilation set up by a "Tobacco company". They might had the idea to catch hippy non smokers with cool sounds. If you can imagine to join the Yardbirds or early Velvet Underground in their homestudios you might get an idea how this records sounds like. Great all english vocals, fuzz guitars and organ. Totally stoned and rough. We personally think those bands are actually from US. There is not a single sitar/tabla or other India influence music on it. Instead: ROUGH GARAGESOUND and FUZZEDOUT MAYHEM. Originals are rare as golddust. This Double LP was released as 2 single albums. Voted from many dealers and collectors as the BEST REISSUE EVER!
