'A PATH THROUGH THE FOREST OF OAK RECORDS' - All of the 17 tracks on this top notch compilation were recorded at R.G Jones' legendary studio in South London during the mid 1960s. Only two selections have previously been released and all the tracks have been extracted from OAK label acetates, the inhouse imprint of R.G Jones which has fired and enthused collectors of rare '60s music for decades. '17 From Morden' illustrates the evolution of British beat during the mid-'60s, with muscular rhythm and blues, tough beat, blue eyed soul and mod flavoured rock. TRACKS:01.
