This is the real deal — Cajun country’s untamed youth. Featuring their killer single and newly discovered tracks! “Girl Give Me Love” has long captivated garage rock crate diggers. It was the lone single released by The Little Bits, a group of pre-teen punks from Jennings,...

Ra to the Rescue is one of the rarer albums in the Sun Ra canon. There's a reason, and it has nothing to do with quality content (or lack thereof). When Ra and his business partner Alton Abraham launched their pioneering independent Saturn label in Chicago in the late 1950s, and on thru the 1960s—by which time Ra had moved to New York—each new album was carefully curated, titled, packaged with a printed, illustrated sleeve, and promoted in ads and catalogs. By the 1970s, when Ra and his band...
