Since its release in 1972, the multi-artist compilation Nuggets - featuring songs hand-chosen by legendary musician and rock critic Lenny Kaye - has arguably become the most influential album in rock 'n' roll history. With 27 songs spread across two vinyl records and packaged in a colorful, multi-hued cover, Nuggets, sub-titled "Original Artyfacts From the First Psychedelic Era, 1965-1968," would become one of the most popular and enduring anthologies of rock music ever created. With Nuggets Redux, music historian Rev. Keith A. Gordon dives deep into the album, providing a song-by-song history of the magic made by psych-and-garage rock legends like The Electric Prunes, The Vagrants, The Remains, The Shadows of Knight, The Chocolate Watchband, and many others. Gordon also digs into the album's ongoing influence in the decades since and provides a succinct history of Nuggets sequels and copycats, including the 50th anniversary Record Store day vinyl box set. Nuggets Redux is illustrated with over three dozen color and vintage B&W photographs.
