Simla Beat 70/71 is a compilation of East Indian garage bands originally released as a promotional item by an Indian tobacco company. In the late '60s / early '70s the Indian cigarette company, Simla, held (or purported to hold) a series of rock'n'roll talent contests, and from these came the albums that are reissued in this 2-CD set. The reissue seems to be pretty much a straight reissue of both albums, with the album art and the original (highly amusing) liner notes reproduced within.

ReplyDeleteCool album! Thanks to post!
ReplyDeleteoh my fuck, some of this is absolutely, almost, fucking great ..the monkey dances and his shadow drops the stick... some of this induces the cringe reflex though and feelings of shame and embarrassment drop by for a visit ....but ..they all got that way down underground sound
