     Although vintage British psychedelia is viewed by many these days as an
     Alice In Wonderland-style enchanted garden full of beatific flower children
     innocently gathering flowers or chasing butterflies, there was always a
     more visceral element to the scene. Pointedly free of such fripperies as
     scarlet tunic-wearing gnomes, phenomenal cats and talismanic bicycles, the
     power trio format that was popularised by the likes of Cream and the Jimi
     Hendrix Experience spawned a host of imitators. As the 60s drew to a close
     and pop evolved slowly but inexorably into rock, psychedelia gave way to a
     sound that was harder, leaner, heavier, louder.

     Across three discs and four hours of remastered music, "I'm A Freak, Baby:
     A Journey Through The British Heavy Psych And Hard Rock Underground Scene
     1968-72" investigates that largely under-documented period, incorporating
     everything from some of the biggest names in the burgeoning hard
     rock/proto-metal firmament (Deep Purple, Uriah Heep) all the way down to a
     significant number of provincial semi-pro bands who gigged extensively but
     were unable to land a recording contract during their lifetime.

     We feature some of British rock's pioneering acts (The Yardbirds, The
     Move), a handful of bands who travelled far beyond their blues boom roots
     (Fleetwood Mac, Chicken Shack, The Groundhogs), the infamous Ladbroke Grove
     scene (The Deviants, The Pink Fairies, Hawkwind, The Edgar Broughton Band),
     a smattering of inspired, where-the-hell-did-that-come-from one-shots like
     The Velvet Frogs and the mighty Egor, and a clutch of previously-unreleased
     recordings (The Kult, Hellmet, The Phoenix) that have even eluded the
     specialist reissue companies and bootleggers.

     Housed in a clambox featuring a lavishly illustrated and annotated 36-page
     booklet, "I'm A Freak, Baby" is the most comprehensive and wide-ranging
     anthology to appear thus far of an underground scene that, in addition to
     being responsible for some magnificent music, also acted as a signpost to
     the subsequent emergence of British punk and heavy metal.

     Note: dirname had to be slightly shortened because of 128 chars limit.
     Complete title of this release is: I'm A Freak, Baby: A Journey Through The
     British Heavy Psych And Hard Rock Underground Scene 1968-72.
