v/a - Strummin' Mental vols. 1-5 (Crypt LPs).
Crypt's long lost instro comp series finally gets a mucho overdue reissue.
What we've got here is five, count 'em, five footlongs of the wildest 'n most insane rock 'n roll instros ever. Be it of the Link Wray-ish menacin' variety or Dick Dale inspired reverb madness, this set is just it! Tim Warren has gone great lengths updatin' this series; linernotes, revised tracklistin' and best of all a seriously upgraded sound quality. While just about any Pulp Fiction inspired revival band is rightfully forgotten by now, these original wild man just don't have a sell-by date. Way too many cool tunes to pick a shortlist of favorites, but if you're in any way inclined to this stuff, just take my word that these discs are mandatory...
