A Deadly Dose of Wylde Psych is another wild compilation from Arf Arf that digs up 26 tracks of long lost American psychedelic acid rock from the mid-'60s. These tracks were recorded during an era when garage bands switched from "Louie Louie" and "Gloria" to a darker, yet no less inept, age of acid-influenced sludge. During the 78 minutes of Deadly Dose, listeners are introduced to beyond obscure bands with names like Chocolate Moose, Peacepipe, Lime Frost, Nite Watchmen, and Sweet Cherry. Most of these tracks sound like a combination of the Music Machine or Count Five with Barry Melton or Jorma Kaukonen on electric guitar at their most hallucinogenic. ~ Al Campbell

$12.65(MP3 Available for Download) Charles Wilson has been a major seller in the Soul, Blues & Southern Soul world for years. Scoring hits with Ichiban, Ecko, Wilson and other labels. Charles was nominated for a W.C. Handy Award (now simply 'Blues Music Awards') for his acclaimed LP for Delmark Records, which featured Little Milton, his uncle. But Charles' new CD is his masterpiece. Combining real Soul ala Johnnie Taylor on the club jams 'That Boom!' & 'The After Party' to the Tyrone Davis-styled Southern Soul of 'Plumber Man', the Theodis Ealey-style Southern Soul bump of "Watch It Shake" to the rich Gerald Levert-worthy balladry of 'Broke Into My Heart'. Grade A songs with big league production by former Cameo member Simeo! The must have CD of 2007! 'He (Charles Wilson) is a singular talent that holds the key to the future evolution of the soul-blues in the grain of his voice' so said Thom Jurek of All Music Guide.
**CD Review** by Calvin Lee Hill (edited by BluesCritic )**** 1/2 Other than the all Blues thang he did with his Uncle Little Milton ("If Heartaches Were Nickels" on Delmark Records), I've been waiting for my man Charles Wilson to make a record that truly lives up to his potential. And he sho 'nuff does on this one. 10 brand new southern soul songs (plus the 11th hidden bonus track "Mississippi Boy") produced by Simeo. Every song could be a hit. "That Boom!" does just that. "That girl won't dance no more without that boom ba-boom boom boom". Oh Lawwwd that's a jammmy. Producer Simeo locks this one down tight! I'd like to see you girls get low to this joint! It's got just a touch of R & B the way Johnnie Taylor's "Good Love" had. If this don't tear up the clubs than y'all should just switch to Polka dagnabbit! Up next is to me a homage to Tyrone Davis called "Plumber Man". I remember this great song from a couple years ago by a brutha named James Smith (the writer) and I couldn't understand why it didn't explode up the charts. Betcha this time it will. I've already heard it on the radio. Man, just as good is "Watch It Shake" that sounds like something Theodis Ealey should've done. This one's gonnna be huge. Same goes ...
