Catalogue No: PAPRCD2090
Title: MAXIMUM FREAKBEAT
Artist: VARIOUS
Label: PAST & PRESENT

Catching R&B as it morphed into
psychedelia, but with an angry, frantic
edge, freakbeat has become one of the
most avidly collected genres in all of pop.
This legendary compilation – unavailable
for over a decade – gathers 21 of the
genre’s finest examples. Britain is amply
represented by legends such as Wimple
Winch, the Mark Four and the Syndicats,
alongside furious contributions from Iceland
(Thor’s Hammer), Australia (the Missing
Links, the Elois), Germany (the Ricketts),
Sweden (the Lee Kings) and Holland (the
Motions), proving that freakbeat was a truly
international phenomenon. The package
comes complete with a detailed booklet
offering histories and discographies of the
acts involved, as well as rare pictures.
