VA - Cries From the Midnight Circus: Ladbroke Grove 1967-78 [2CD Set] (2007)

Two CD set. Back in the late '60s, Swingin' London had its very own equivalent of San Francisco's Haight Ashbury or New York's Greenwich Village - Ladbroke Grove - this West London enclave was the epicenter of all things cool and underground- this was where the beautiful people hung out and grooved to their very own community Rock bands like Hawkwind, the Pink Fairies, and Quintessence; where the people on the street rubbed shoulders with the musicians, writers like Michael Moorcock, artists like Barney Bubbles and even had their own alternative newspaper Frendz - this was where Nic Roeg shot his legendary film Performance. This double disc set will transport you back to a time when change was in the air and the music was played for free. Castle.
