Regarding Volume 7
Apparently UW Volume 7 is currently unavailable for download due to a copyright claim on the John Keen track. I'll re-upload this volume with a different track in place of that one - my apologies for the down time.
(edit: I've replaced John Keen with Damnation of Adam Blessing and replaced the download link.)

Uncharted Waters Volume 10
Here we are at Number 10...hopefully this series will keep going for a while and I'll be able to make it twenty, or thirty, or even farther. To the moon!
There was a delay in making this one because I had to order a new stylus for the turntable...didn't want to ruin my records any more than they already have been ruined. So if these sound a little odd, it could be because the stylus hasn't been broken in yet - but they sound OK to my ears, so no worries there. On this one we've got a couple of overseas hitmakers (Blue Mink, Pickettywitch), some great promo-only records that never had a shot at being hits (Mancini & Fox), and even a complete mystery record (Child). Here's the track listing...
1. Cotton Candy – Billy (ABC Dunhill 45-D-4190, 1969)
2. Mancini and Fox – (But I Could Reach) The Wisdom Of Soloman (Event EV 210, 1972)
3. Heaven Bound with Tony Scotti – Five Hundred Miles (MGM 14314, 1971)
4. These Vizitors – For Mary’s Sake (Capitol 2163, 1968)
5. The Berkeley Kites – Hang Up City (Minaret MIN-132, 1968)
6. Willie and the Red Rubber Band – I’ll Stay With You (RCA Victor 47-9628, 1968)
7. The Fuzzy Bunnies – Lemons And Limes (Decca 32364, 1968)
8. The Razor’s Edge – Let’s Call It A Day Girl (Pow! 101, 1966)
9. The Savage Rose – Long Before I Was Born (Polydor PD 2-15007, 1971)
10. Pickettywitch – Maybe We’ve Been Loving Too Long (Janus J-118, 1970)
11. The New Lime – Sunny (Minaret 150, 1969)
12. Blue Mink – The Banner Man (Bell 45-125, 1971)
13. Stone Country – Time Isn’t There (Anymore) (RCA Victor 47-9301, 1967)
14. Child – World Of Liberty (Cobweb 001, ????)
15. Sixth Day Creation – You’re Better By Far (Laurie LR-3483, 1969)

Uncharted Waters Volume 8
I hope you all had a good (wintry holiday goes here)! Now that you've likely finished digesting last night's Christmas dinner (if applicable), you've got a chance to listen to fifteen more psych-pop/rock delights. Enjoy!
(p.s.: a new preamp has arrived and was used to record most of these! It's an ART DJPRE II, and apart from the channel balance being slightly off for whatever reason, it sounds great to my ears. Skips and repeats are a thing of the past!)

5. Cashman, Pistilli and West - Goodbye Jo (Capitol 2747, 1970)
6. 13th Power - I See A Change Is Gonna Come (Sidewalk 927, 1967)
7. The Corporation - I Want To Get Out Of My Grave (Capitol 2467, 1969)
8. Jimmy Stewart and the Sirs - If You Really Want Me To I'll Go (Shamley S 44009, 1969)
9. The East Side Kids - Is My Love Strong (Uni 55105, 1969)
10. Jade and Pepper - Jig A Jube Jube (Avalanche AV-XW185-W, 1973)
11. Batdorf and Rodney - Oh My Surprise (Atlantic 45-2850, 1971)
12. Continental Uptight Band - She's Just A Friend (Capitol P-2954, 1970)
13. The Heywoods - Special Someone (Family Productions FPA-0911, 1972)

Uncharted Waters Volume 7
Hey there, guys and gals, both and neither! I originally intended for the Uncharted Waters series to be a weekly affair, but it hasn't quite turned out that way. Now that I'm done college exams and am home for the holiday break, I can continue digitizing slabs of wax and compiling them for your aural enjoyment.
Unfortunately, there is a weak link in my system, and it's my phono preamp. I had to scrap some original recordings made for this volume because the preamp was causing all sorts of glitches to appear in the audio files when recording via USB input on my laptop. Luckily it works much better on my desktop PC - but if you hear an errant skip in these recordings, it's because of the preamp and has been a problem since day one of digitizing records for me. I should have a new one in soon for better sound than ever!
Enough jabber, here's the track listing:
1. The Five Americans - 7:30 Guided Tour (Abnak AB-126, 1967)
2. Wizz - Brooklyn (Capitol P-3632, 1973)
3. Jean Jacques Perrey - Country Rock Polka (Vanguard VRS-35105, 1970)
4. Syndicate Of Sound - First To Love You (Buddah BDA 183, 1969)
5. Badge - Gettin' In Over My Head (Exhibit EX-4600, 1971)
6. The First Street Marble Brigade - Honey Love (Honor Brigade 2, 1969)
7. John and Anne Ryder - I Still Believe In Tomorrow (Decca 732506, 1969)
8. John Keen - Old Fashioned Girl (Track (UK) 2094-103, 1972)
8. Damnation of Adam Blessing - Cookbook (United Artists 50912, 1972)
9. Alex Keenan - One Day Of Your Life (Colgems 66-5008, 1970)
10. The Pendulum - She Can Blow Your Mind (Kama Sutra KA-268, 1969)
11. Billy Meshel - (It Ain't Easy Being) Shirley Newman's Boyfriend (Probe CP-459, 1969)
12. Home - Someone In Your Life (Columbia 4-45490, 1971)
13. The Gentle Soul - Song For Three (Columbia 4-44152, 1967)
14. Home Sweet Whoo - Summer's Over (from the LP "Nameless Coffee House: Strike Two", Custom Fidelity CFS-2047, 1968)
15. Tom Northcott - Suzanne (Uni 55288, 1971)
