Various Artists Those Shocking Shaking Days (2 LP)

First ever compilation to assess the incredible psychedelic rock, funk & prog scene of 1970s Jakarta! Whilst some collectors fiend for the incredibly rare LPs from the likes of Shark move & their later incarnation Giant Step, very little is known about Indonesian rock music - until now. Now-Again Records has teamed up with local musicians and experts to provide a fascinating in-depth look at the flourishing of progressive psychedelic music in early 1970s Indonesia, where fiercely independent musicians criticised the military dictatorship, raised awareness of drug abuse and much more - all to the glorious sound of the fuzz guitar and some of the most ambitious arrangements you'll ever hear.
