Beat! Complete Telefunken Years

Beat! Complete Telefunken Years

For the first time ever, BEAT! The Complete Telefunken Years collects the complete recordings for the Telefunken label from Berlin's The Boots. BEAT! The Complete Telefunken Years anthologises their thrilling 1965 debut album Here Are The Boots, it's 1967 mod-soul follow-up Beat With The Boots, and all their singles and compilation appearances. The long-haired Boots' wild take on R&B set them apart from Germany's other beat groups, and their moody, tough single Gaby is one of the greatest sides of the Sixties and was a highlight of the 2005 seminal Rhino box set Children of Nuggets. BEAT! The Complete Telefunken Years is a unique chance to hear the band's rough-edged splendour and is a must-have for fans of the best music of the Sixties. Influenced by The Pretty Things and Them, The Boots were as good as Britain's edgiest Sixties R&B bands. BEAT! The Complete Telefunken Years includes a fully illustrated booklet with liner notes telling the band's story.
