The mysterious American sailor and obsessive record collector, now residing in Bristol (UK), returns with another deep excavation into the most fuzz-drenched corners of the psychedelic underground.

For decades he has been hunting down obscure recordings from the late 1960s and early 70s -- digging through forgotten archives, flea markets and dusty record shops across the globe. The result is the Up In My Mind series: compilations dedicated to the wildest, most lysergic garage and psychedelic tracks of the era.

Volume 2 delivers 17 more fuzz-heavy psychedelic gems, ranging from raw garage rock burners to dreamy acid psych explorations. Some of these tracks were originally released only on extremely rare 7-inch singles, others remained unreleased at the time, while a few briefly surfaced on long out-of-print CD compilations.

Packed with distorted guitars, swirling organs and hallucinatory studio effects, Up In My Mind Vol. 2 captures the strange and adventurous spirit of the lysergic sixties.
