Yes, this is the very hard to find 5 lp set on Vee Jay Records, 100 HALL OF FAME OLDIES, which for some odd reason contains all 10 tracks of the CHRIS LUCEY/BOBBY JAMESON lp SONGS OF PROTEST AND ANTI PROTEST on the side 2. Great folk rock sounds like an Arthur Lee and Love lp from 1966 that was left in a vault!!!! And this set is in mint condition with all five lps and the original shipping label as you can see in the photo. Great set that rarely shows up and the perfect way to hear GIRL FROM THE EAST, DON'T COME LOOKING And all the rest of these psych garage folk rock masterpieces. Shipping will be $10 in the U.S. for this heavy set, slightly higher elsewhere. Payment by paypal, international orders welcome.
Some further comments on this great record ....
Chris Lucey aka Bobby Jameson's Songs of Protest and AntiProtest is an amazing album. Comparisons to Da Capo ear Love give you some idea but don't totally capture the sound of this music. Its a truly inspired and original album featuring mainly vibes, stand up bass, acoustic guitar and Lucey's great voice. A great jazz/folk sound with a mellow vibe but not overproduced a la some soft pop. But the album proper is one of the best things from the 60's and easily stands up with other West Coast greats such as Love, The Byrds, and the Millenium. Buy this at once!!!!
I read about bobby jameson in an article in mojo magazine and decided to check this out. it's an excellent album that sometimes reminds me alot of love, especially on songs like "girl from vernon mountain". both jameson and love were from los angeles but jameson claims to have preceded love, so you have to wonder who influenced who. some of the more folky sounding songs kind of have a bluesy feel, ala fred neil. These are quintessential folk protest songs; with heavy strumming and intense and paranoid vocal delivery. good recording quality, good songs... not quite a lost classic but interesting music and an insightful look at some of the deep roots of rock and roll.
