The Creation - Action Painting (CD)

Produced by Shel Talmy (The Who, the Kinks), The Creation put out two years of dizzyingly diverse singles, from crunchy, catchy guitar rock to lightly trippy pop to sultry blue-eyed soul to avant-garde psychedelia. Commercial success largely eluded them, but they've been a hipster touchstone ever since. This is your chance to get caught up on The Creation: 46 tracks, their complete 1966-68 studio recordings, remastered by Shel; their pre-Creation Mark Four tracks join the UK hit "Painter Man" plus "Making Time" (as heard in "Rushmore"), "Bonie Maronie," "Uncle Bert," "Ostrich Man," "Sweet Helen" and more including fresh stereo mixes where previously unavailable. Double-vinyl version is a 24-track "best-of"; both editions include books with unpublished photographs (16 pages with the vinyl, 80 with the CDs)! Numero.
