Lenny Helsing has been spreading the word and music of the garage/beat fraternity forever. One of the outlets he uses to preach this gospel is The Thanes who have just been anthologised (is that a word?) by REV-OLA and you, the kids (of all ages) need to be hep to that. If you never had the pleasure then this'd be a heckuva place to start.



"The Thanes - Evolver (CRREV 69) Here it is..just when you thought it was safe to listen to failed biker bar bands who've noticed The White Stripes have sold a few records..(you know who you are)..the complete history to date of Scotland's premier Garage/Beat group....nothing less than that!Whilst influencing a whole generation of bands making up today's hit Garage sound, they made (and continue to make) a series of remarkable and acclaimed records....all collected here for the first time on one great CD....the classics, the driving-collectors-mad rarities, their latest and perhaps greatest recordings.....anyone with any interest in the driving Garage Punk sound that's sweeping the world cannot miss this essential release!...It's the real deal, Lucille! Their greatest recordings right up to date, and LOUDER than ever! Check out the menu -
In God I Trust / Antenna Surprise / That's The Story Of Your Life / Static / Before I Go / Wonder If / It Can Never Be / I've Seen Darker Nights / Gone Away Girl / Please Don't Cry / Lazy Bones / Thrown Away The Key / Don't Let Her Dark Your Door Again / She's A Robber / Hey Girl (Look What You've Done) / Shipwreck / I'll Rest / Lost Or Found / Buzz Buzz (Yeh Yeh) / Baby Come Back / World Of Stone / None Of This / Girls / Who'll Be The Next In Line / Days Go Slowly By / Never Make Me Blue / It's My Pride "
