Garage Girls The Second: Girls In The Garage Part 2 (1990 Romulan)

This is the second cd volume from the Romulan series. The 28 tracks are a collection from the LP volumes 6, 6 1/2 and Vol.7. Some of the bands and artists included here are Lindy Lane (now i know who's the role model of Cindy Lauper), Pat Downey & The Vistas, Cupons, Ellaine & The Shardells, Millie Rogers, Karin Krogh & The Public Enemies, Fatimas, just to name a few. Fatimas ''Hoochy Coo is a fine freaky light psychedelic garage song and in my opinion one of the goodies here.

Also Karen Verros with her powerful ''You just gotta know my mind'' is of the better ones here. Venus Flytrap with ''The Note'' reminds me a little bit of the early psych folk works of Mr Boettcher. The She's present with ''The Fool'' an early version of eighties new wave pop sounds.
The collection is divided in two parts. Some songs are more influenced by the fifties, while most are more into the sixties. In my opinion this second volume is not as strong as Vol.1 but you will find here a lot of real interesting songs and sounds. And what i really like in this collection is the diversity and the creativity of the songs.(Frank)
