Leighton Koizumi / Tito & The Brainsuckers Power Hits
Come on, if you're reading this you don't even need us to explain who Leighton Koizumi is... from the Gravedigger V to the Morlocks, the man, the myth, the legend has been blowing minds since 1965, or well, since he started paving the way for the garage punk revival in the 1980s. On 'Power Hits' he's supported maybe by one of his best bands yet, Italian garage-rockers Tito & The Brainsuckers, creating the perfect mix of bravado, rawness and over the top hysteria to deliver 24 pure nuggets, most never released before. Covering classics from the Stooges, Love, Moving Sidewalks, Kinks, Eyes, Banshees, Gordon Lightfoot and many more Leighton is maybe at his best ever, laser sharp, from street walking cheetah to night crooner accompanied beautifully by Tito Macozzi and his thugs.
