Jody Reynolds is no doubt destined to be erroneously remembered as a "One Hit Wonder" for his very first record, the million-selling 'Endless Sleep'. Once heard, never forgotten, it's spooky, reverb-laden vocals and Al Casey's rumbling guitar lent dramatic tension to the disc, bestowing instant "killer" status on it. However, his follow up, the similarly-crafted 'Fire Of Love' (which would later be revived, memorably, by both the MC5 and Gun Club), also dented the US Top 100. Reynolds went on to record a powerful, wholly underrated body of work, which even includes a couple of Instro 45s, with his backing group The Storms, featuring him on lead guitar. This compilation is an attempt to anthologise all his releases between 1958-62, across seven different labels. Included herein are a number of sides which are serious collectors' rarities, impossible to find elsewhere on CD.
