Spinning Wheels (1965-66)

From Melbourne/Australia the "Spinning Wheels" were a rough and wild R&B band. They did mostly covers but they did it without compromises. All their four singles are included on this album (Corduroy Records CORD 064 / 2003). It's obvious that the label transfer the songs from the original 45's instead of using the mastertapes but to be honest: do you really care if you hear the Pretty Things' "Come See Me" on maximum volume with or without crackles?

Tracklist:
- Not Fade Away
- Got My Mojo Working (#1)
- Little Red Rooster
- I'm Saved
- Shame, Shame, Shame
- One Kind Favour
- You Can't Catch Me
- Follow Me Down
- Bo Diddley
- Creepy John
- Good Times, Bad Times
- Got My Mojo Working (#2)
