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)

Rod Turnbull (vcls, hrmnca, perc) [AB]

In case of The Outcasts I can tell you that this album will be re-issued soon (and it's really a good one).
Ok thanks a lot Buffalo !!!
Very very good album, thank you very much.
This is GREAT, it may be the usual covers but it's miles better than most others...for fans of early raw R&B like the Pretties or the Stones at the very beginning this is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!
By the way I bought this LP but it was earlier than the year mentioned, around 2000...unless there's a later CD of it.
You can find the Our Generation Dawning of the Day here...
