The Q Tracks CD A 1. Where have all the good time gone 2:43:31 CD B 11. Diamond July 3:45:00

The Q formed in Stroud, Gloucestershire, UK in 2006 and consists of Mike Veale, (guitar & vocals), Tim Vanstone, (guitar & vocals), Dean Gifford, (bass), Shane Blackshaw, (drums). We have a real passion for the music we write and play and love to perform for our audience. In November 2006 we released 2 demo tracks on Detour Records, “She” and “Through Your Eyes”. Both tracks were well received and reviewed by independent music press and this caught the attention of legendary producer of “The Jam”, Vic Coppersmith-Heaven. In January 2008, The Q went into the studio with Vic to re-record Through Your Eyes along with another two tracks, “Interlude” and “Big Issue” which were released as part of our debut EP, “ISSUES”, on Time For Action Records in Germany in November 2008. In 2011 The Q released their first full length album, Sonically Sound both physically, (through Time For Action Records), and digitally, (through Cargo Records). In January 2013 we headed back into a studio with Greg Haver, (The Manic Street Preachers, Catatonia, Bullet For My Valentine etc..), to record “Chemical Overload”, one of 2 EP’s planned for release in quick succession. “Chemical Overload” was released in 2013 as 4 independent digital singles before coming together on a limited edition vinyl EP released on the 9th December 2013. We take our inspiration from the same well of soles that the likes of “The Jam”, “Secret Affair” and even “The Who” did. If you see The Q live you’ll see a performance reminiscent of the bands behind our inspiration, powerful, energetic and memorable.

Steve Marriott Track CD A 4. Your Really Got Me 02:23:68

Outside of Mod circles it’s a little known fact that STEVE MARRIOTT once covered the Kinks song YOU REALLY GOT ME. This was four years after he appeared in the West End production of Oliver and one year before he found Pop Star fame with the Small Faces. The 45 was recorded for the American market only and it completely bombed which only went to make it all the more collectable. It’s fairly primitive but, as with every cover Steve ever performed, he made the song his own...... NICE!! yes of course.

The Mynd Set CD A 17. Sitting on my sofa 03:18:48 CD B3. Kaleidoscope 03:58:51

This dynamic four-piece based in Hertfordshire are the unrivaled masters of melding 1967 and 2067 into one big ball of unstoppable psychedelic fuzz. Although their music - led by the songwriting duo of guitarist Leon Hewitt and organist Parsley the Lion – is noticeably unique in its presentation, they consider The Kinks to be among their biggest influences. One can see similarities between the bands: by mixing the rowdy blues of yesteryear with the new sounds of the time, Pete Quaife and company gave us a taste of what was to come many years later. Similarly, leon Hewitt, Parsley, Chris Punter and Glyn Tomlinson are reminding us of the cream of the sixties whilst reinforcing the best of today’s music. And in effect, are showing us the future is very, very bright indeed. The band are delighted to cover the classic 1965 track “Sitting’ On My Sofa” as well as provide, an original composition.
