The 1960's is littered with bands and artists who for various reasons never achieved the recognition they deserved. Jason Crest are one such artist and this compilation gathers together everything they put down during their tenure. I applaud Grapefruit Records for continuing to issue collections and albums from the more obscure corners of the 60's.As for the sound it's probably as good as it can be given that everything is sourced from vinyl 45's and acetates of varying quality. It's a shame that the original tapes were unavailable or (more likely) no longer exist as I would love to hear 'Turquoise Tandem Cycle' and  'A Place In The Sun' in particular from cleaner sources, but it's better than not having them at all.Everything is in Mono with the exception of 'Black Mass' which is the Stereo mix that has appeared on other comps. To the best of my knowledge the original Mono mix has never appeared on CD so it's a shame it wasn't put on here with the Stereo as a bonus track.All things considered though it's worth a listen if you're unfamiliar with the band as there are a number of great songs to be found here.  'Turquoise Tandem Cycle' is wonderfully quirky, 'A Place In The Sun' and 'Teagarden Lane' are gorgeous melodies, while 'Juliano The Bull' and the much despised 'Waterloo Road' will stay in your head for a while. Also, the notorious 'Black Mass' may raise an eyebrow or two, with it's hysterical vocal screams eerily anticipating the shriek of many a heavy metal vocalist. I can't decide whether it's a great track or so bad it's good.The enclosed booklet contains an excellent essay that details the history of the band and the second disc of BBC sessions rounds things off nicely.If you're looking to broaden your listening beyond the usual 60's suspects then this is a great starting point. Be sure to check out the Grapefruit re-issues of The Idle Race, The Misunderstood, Apple and The Electric Banana (who were actually The Pretty Things-perhaps THE most criminally underappreciated band of all time-in disguise) as well. You will not be disappointed.

    Arguably THE best unknown band of the 60's
  

*by P***. on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 October 2020*

For anyone who likes late 60's psychedelic pop, this 2CD set is a must, there is not a bad track on it. Disc 1 consists of the five original Philips singles plus many unreleased tracks taken from acetates. These tracks were released on a now difficult to find CD around twenty years ago but this 2CD set also includes a disc of their BBC broadcasts previously only issued on an obscure LP.Packaged in an attractive digi pak with an informative booklet, I can't recommend this set highly enough. Buy it, you will not be disappointed.
