The whole album is solid throughout. Dave Jones. I first heard this album with tea in my hand, the sun shining through the late winter day and fungus in my mind.

It was the most content I'd felt with existence. I have now just woken to the sound of the last track having fallen asleep with the album on repeat, it affected my dreams so beautifully.

There's a tear in my eye, everything is fine. The debut solo LP from Ride's Andy Bell is charming, fuzzed-out psych-pop with the shoegaze pioneer's signature sense of dynamic layering. Chalk People by Chalk People. Just heard this for the first time, tonight.

Things'll Never Be the Same 7. Walkin' With Jesus An unexpected peek into the band's earliest possible roots, For All the Fucked Up Children preserves Spacemen 3's first ever studio recording work from Though there are seven cuts total, only five songs are on offer -- the remaining two are alternate mixes of some recordings, interesting but not notably different.

Outside of a completely fried take of "TV Catastrophe," those expecting Playing With Fire, or even Sound of Confusion, will have some pleasant, happily surprises at hearing where the group was and had yet to go. As a great bonus, the packaging has both a review of a live show from around the same period -- if nothing else, confirming that Rugby was apparently not only an unlikely place for Spacemen 3 to come from, but any band, period -- and an early publicity photograph.

Seeing the original three in short haircuts -- Sonic even has a buzz! Losing Touch With Your Mind kbps. Unofficially compiling mixes and demos from , Losing Touch With Your Mind does for Spacemen 3's lo-fidelity psychedelia what a sprinkler does for a thunderstorm. Rabid fans frustrated at the growing pomposity and self-destruction of Jason Pierce's subsequent Spiritualized might fondle every unpolished crevice of the more impressive material here, but for most this is a strangled, barrel-scraping experience.

Bean, the alternative mix of "Honey" comes off as even more of a Stone Roses backward track than before, yet for the rest, Spacemen 3's Velvet Underground junkie odes feel too long, too similar, or too incomplete. A shame since the band's stoned abstraction begs for true remixes someday. The original seven tracks, dated January and the first recordings to feature Pete Bain on bass, are collectively known as the Northampton Demos, understandably named for the recording location in a studio outside said English city.

Both Sonic and Pierce have been on record as long preferring these takes to the eventual versions that surfaced for the most part on Sound of Confusion. Certainly it's a fine set of performances, showing a definite step toward the more familiar sound of the group and away from the rougher takes on For All the Fucked Up Children of the World.

On the slightly lighter tip, "Come Down Easy" is more or less fully in place aside from singing about it being ! The tracks that surfaced on the later reissues come from a variety of different sessions, including the original take on "Feel So Good" and a good live version of "Things'll Never Be the Same," one of several cuts featuring Brooker's drumming replacement Rosco.

Collected from various German shows in that year, the album covers the last era of the band as a live act, not to mention the rarest of all the lineups: a four-piece with bassist Will Carruthers and drummer Jon Mattock, who would eventually become founding members of Spiritualized with Pierce. Though fidelity varies a bit throughout, the remastering job, partially overseen by Sonic, presents good results, not to mention a number of cuts performed by the band only on rare occasions.

Only three Playing With Fire cuts regularly appeared in the live set, but two of the less performed songs take a bow here, a stripped down, striking take on "I Believe It" and a gentle ramble through "Lord Can You Hear Me?

In keeping with the band's acknowledged reverence and inspiration from the past, a variety of covers appear, with a short version of the 13th Floor Elevators' "Rollercoaster" kicking things off for the album as a whole. There's also the "Bo Diddley Jam," not so much a cover as an enthusiastic rip through that legend's style, laced with appropriately heavy vibes. Among the essentials: the complete "Ecstasy Symphony" a fragment of which leads into Prescription's "Transparent Radiation" , the early single version of "Walkin' With Jesus," and the full-on minute "Rollercoaster.

Not only is it a boon to die-hard fans, but it also holds up pretty well on its own. Indeed, it would be a decent introduction to the band if it had been whittled down from a double to a single album. The relatively cohesive first disc is almost an alternate version of Perfect Prescription, while the second disc is more of an odds and sods collection for fans.

The alternate mixes tend to feature overdubs and other effects that the band couldn't reproduce live supposedly the reason why these mixes weren't chosen for Perfect Prescription.

The layers of guitar on the first disc's "Things'll Never Be the Same," which manage to sound simultaneously hypnotic and hard-driven, are particularly appealing, although some may prefer the rougher-sounding demo of the song on disc two.

The influence of the Velvet Underground is also evident, particularly in the tribute instrumental the previously unreleased "Velvet Jam" and the ode to Lou Reed's "Street Hassle" "Ode to Street Hassle".

Plus there are tasty remixes of Perfect Prescription originals such as "Ecstasy Symphony" and "Soul 1" to make this a generally appealing collection. With Sonic Boom and Jason Pierce's guitar playing pushed to the max, delivering a Stooges-inspired riff with utter intensity -- and while Will Carruthers kept the rhythm moving on bass, Sonic took advantage of the slightly calmer moments to coolly deliver a lyric threatening destruction for those who want to keep people down.

As political and potent as anything the MC5 wrote and better than anything Primal Scream tried in the same vein, it's sheer power and freedom incarnate. The B-sides, both covers, pay tribute to two of the band's many influences. Meanwhile, the gospel roots of the band get a fine nod via the traditional "Will the Circle Be Unbroken?
