V.A. History Of Eastern Iowa Rock Vol.1, The Daybreakers (1967-77) The Daybreakers + Rox + Crusin'

Let no one ask me why, but I have a great fondness for garage bands in Iowa, a state full of good bands, but very few have had national importance. and among them are "The Daydream", which in 1967 would release a solitary single, but which contained this jewel entitled "Psychedelic Siren". The other songs of him have been unpublished until the appearance of this disc.

The band had continuous personnel changes until 1969 when they became "Rox", changing their style from garage to Hard-Rock, a style that was already beginning to take off with force. In this recording there are four tracks that seem to have never appeared before. They fall apart in 1969 and in 1971 they reappear as "Crusin", of which they show us three live tracks, covering great classics.

It is a very enjoyable album to listen to, starting with the garage sound and ending with very different sounds. The band was changing in parallel with the passage of time.
