Grapefruit

Grapefruit is a UK-based music label that specializes in psych/garage-era music from the 1966-70 timeframe. Managed by Cherry Red, Grapefruit focuses on releasing single-artist career anthologies and definitive versions of rare and classic albums. Each release features sympathetic artwork, rare photos, detailed liner notes, and high-quality sound from the original masters.

Between 1968 and 1970, some of the finest, most obscure British psychedelic pop singles of the era escaped on the Spark label, the newly-inaugurated recording arm of long- established publishers Southern Music. Recorded in the basement studio of the company's Denmark Street premises, these tracks often featured the same cabal of musicians and songwriters, leading to a homogenous in- house style that perfectly encapsulates the late 1960s British pop-psych studio sound. The best of Spark's impressive roster is now collected on CD for the first time on Hello Everyone: Popsike Sparks from Denmark Street 1968-70, which assembles highly-prized, highly-priced 45s from pre-Rare Bird band Fruit Machine, Gene Latter, post-Sorrows outfit the Eggy, the New Generation (subsequently to become the Sutherland Brothers), the Dennis Wheatley-inspired Icarus and both sides of the magnificent and astonishingly rare single by Sir Ching I (only one stock copy known to exist). Also included are exquisite Brit popsike singles from Timothy Blue, Just William, both sides of the superb John Carter / Russ Alquist collaboration The Laughing Man / Midsummer Dreaming and two sensational offerings from Eartha Kitt during her brief and unlikely immersion in late Sixties hippy chick chic. Crammed with vintage three-minute pop tunes, and with a lavish 16-page booklet that features rare photos, quotes and the full story behind the label, Hello Everyone is simply an essential purchase for admirers of the British psychedelic pop genre.
