Some of the hottest garage and rock and psych to be released in Canada during the mid-'60s! Eleven sizzling tracks from rare singles recorded for Gaiety Records, the indie label formed by Don Grashey and Lloyd Palmer, and active from 1961-1969. Formed by Don Grashey and Lloyd Palmer in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Gaiety Records was an outlet for many relatively obscure but excellent Canadian garage and rock bands during its existence. They released their own singles as well as sub-licensing material to other labels, such as RCA (49th Parallel), Columbia (Jarvis Street Revue and Souls of Inspyration), Decca, Epic, Musicor, and others. Features the Checkerlads, White Knights, Tomorrow's Keepsake, Lexington Avenue, NRG, Solid Reputation, and the Plague, including their face melter, 'Face of Time' and the essential psych classic 'High Flyin' Bird'.
