Seattle’s first ‘alternative’ band from the 60s, the Daily Flash were caught in the psychedelic explosion of the West Coast with their electrifying blend of folk-rock, pop, blues and jazz. This compilation (the most comprehensive to date) includes their essential 45s (“Jack Of Diamonds” of Nuggets fame, “Queen Jane Approximately”, “The French Girl”…) plus unreleased studio / live recordings and rare demos / acetates.
