Guana Batz - Original Albums and Peel Session Collection 4CD Boxed Set

The Guana Batz are one of the defining names of British Psychobilly, and this superb 4CD boxed set brings together their first four classic studio albums plus their complete BBC John Peel Sessions. Spanning the period from 1984 to 1985, the collection captures the band at a crucial stage of their career and provides an outstanding overview of their early recorded work.

The set opens with Held Down To Vinyl... At Last!, including Psychobilly favourites such as Down On The Line, Got No Money, Can't Take The Pressure, Nightwatch, King Rat and Nightmare Fantasy, followed by their February 1984 Peel Session. Loan Sharks then delivers Pile Driver Boogie, My Way, Slippin' In, Radio Sweetheart, Shake Your Money Maker and Hippy Hippy Shake, together with another four-track Peel Session. Rough Edges continues the story with Streetwise, Open Your Mouth, Rocking On Creek Road, Spy Catcher, Bring My Cadillac Back and Rocking With Ollie Vee, plus a further five Peel recordings.

The fourth disc completes the studio-album sequence with Electra Glide In Blue, featuring Green Eyes, Texas Eyes, Wondrous Place, Katherine, Spector Love, Self Made Prison and Take A Rocket, followed by the band's 1985 Peel Session. With four original albums and a wealth of BBC recordings gathered together in one box, this is an essential collection of early Guana Batz material and a superb document of one of Psychobilly's most important bands.
