Just like America, England in the 60s was home to a large number of emerging pop-rock bands who, while never managing to create essential albums, still released many revolutionary and influential tracks. Nuggets UK – a sequel to the original American Nuggets – is a double-LP compilation of twenty-three tracks from the very best of these bands, ranging in sound and style from garage (The Kinks, Them, The Troggs) and mod (The Eyes, The Creation) to ground-breaking psychedelic pop (The Beatles, The Misunderstood) and the rising cult of the rock guitarist as electric deity (The Yardbirds, Cream). Other, lesser-known bands include High Tide, The Open Mind, Tomorrow, and Jason Crest, whose “Black Mass” remains a classic of psychedelic Satanism.
