Uprising #1 - Hooterville Trolley - No Silver Bird / The Fog - Grey Zone

ROVR &  Ace Records have joined forces to form UPRISING,
a new label catering to the new wave of demand for raw underground dance music from the 50s and 60s, curated by legendary Kebdarge.

The label's debut release, UPRISING #1, features two haunting garage-psych killers from the mid 60s. The Hooterville Trolley's "No Silver Bird" is a highly sought-after cult rarity. Recorded at Norman Petty's New Mexico studio in 1968, the track's eerie string arrangement came courtesy of Petty's newly acquired "string machine” an experimental touch that may have baffled listeners at the time, but sounds perfectly suited to today's underground dance floors.

On the flip side, The Fog's "Grey Zone" has been recently packing dance floors from Tokyo to New York. Also recorded in 1968, it was never released on vinyl until it appeared on an Ace compilation last year. In fact, the band released absolutely nothing when they were around, probably just playing local gigs until they were shipped off to Vietnam.

It has a heavy, dark sound that fits perfectly with the current trend in underground clubs UPP 001 Side A: The Hooterville Trolley - No Silver Bird Side B: The Fog - Grey Zone
