Various - Sonic 1971-1972: Bloodsucking & Maneating Tracks from the Sonic Vault LP

WELLINGTON; Circa 1971-72. For just over a year Sonic label and studio owner Alan Dunnage and record producer Ed Morris aka O’Strange became a magnet for the Wellington and lower North Island Underground music scene. The labels output was small and included only eight singles and no albums. The legacy of those recordings is a time capsule from a fleeting moment in time when Sixties counter-culture effortlessly merged with the diverse and eclectic Seventies rock scene. PLAY IT LOUD!!

“Alan had been operating his studio since the early fifties when he recorded Johnny Cooper & His Range Riders. He loved the new Rock sounds that were being generated by a new breed of musician. Being a lot older than the musos and quite content to record and engineer, he would use me to produce the bulk of the sessions as I was younger and could relate to this new crop of young musos”....Ed Morris aka O’Strange
