Time Will Show The Wiser-The Bucketfull Of Brains Collection (1989)

This is a nice little compilation celebrating the first ten years of the influential Bucketfull Of Brains fanzine out of the U.K. Most of these tracks were either unreleased at the time, alternate versions, and/or were given away as free flexi discs with the original issues.

"Bucketfull Of Brains was founded in 1979 by Nigel Cross. It has published continuously since that time under a series of editorial teams. It covers a wide-range of musics; an erstwhile sub-title listed "rock, garage, psych, folk-rock, pop, rock’n’roll”, and to that can now be added country, soul and glam and probably more. Throughout its life it has retained an affection for songs with guitars and thus bands like the Barracudas, the Flamin’ Groovies, the Dream Syndicate, the Long Ryders and the Green Pajamas hold a special place in its affections." (B.O.B Myspace)
