The idea was to celebrate a particularly misunderstood musical moment. Contrary to the received opinion, the cusp of the 60’s/70’s was not a musical wasteland: to be sure, there was a lot of filler and absolute pointlessness as, it seemed, every single member of every single big late 60’s band released a solo album. But, as ever with music – which is a great form of communication – there is always somebody saying something, always somebody making records that help you make sense of the world. Also, there was the law of averages: with so many releases at that point, there were many gems among the dross’
