In the 1980s ‘garage’ became the name for a kind of dance music; and in the 1990s UK Garage was a form of electronica. Regardless, the term is most commonly used to refer to rock music – mostly of the kind that’s a bit rough (and ready) round the edges. Most of the punks were garage bands, and before them were psychedelic rockers, and before them surfers and beat bands. All the groups on this 2-CD collection hail from the late 1950s and very early 1960s. The majority of the tracks here are surfing instrumentals, though you’ll also find a smattering of doo-wop and ‘trash’ doo-wop and frat rock and even good old-fashioned beat music.
