“We continue down the wormhole of hard rock, heavy psych, and proto-metal here on The Third Trip with a set of tunes so obscure they can’t be seen without a third eye. Most of these tracks were recorded in shack-sized studios, privately pressed for promotional purposes, and tossed out like last night’s half empties only to later be discovered to be half-full, if not overflowing with greatness. The majority of these tracks are from the good ol’ US of A with two exceptions, Ash-labelmate New Zealanders,Chook, and the mighty Limeys, Factory. Unlike many labels doing compilations of rare dusties, we’ve actually gone to the trouble to contact the bands included here for permission to use their material. It was a long and arduous task to say the least, but it’s the way it should be done. And we paid ’em! So sleep easy knowing that no one was ripped off in the making of this record.”

3rd outing in this bone-crushing series...The heavy-ness abounds and anyone who got the first two will snap this up right away! For those new to it well....Get onboard the hard rock underground...Biker rock, acid rock, funky rock dashing through Sabbath-esque riffage and Grand Funk obscureness and culled from record collections and mad diggers. late 60's to early 80's chest hair frugging RAWK!
