Secret Superstar Sounds, is Soul Jazz's well-groovy new punk / powerpop collection of rare tracks from little-known bands from the late 1970s.Grab yourself a serious slice of lost musical history! Featuring The Squares, The Meanies, The Monitors, Plummet Airline, Tours, Gobblinz, Krypton Tunes and many more!

Power pop mixed together a love of lyrical and melodically beautiful 60s pop and garage sounds together with the energy and attitude of 70s punk. Almost completely out of kilter with the fashions of the day (punk, new wave and post-punk) these bands managed to fall between the musical cracks at almost every step of the way - leaving them practically unknown to all but a few. Inspired by the D-I-Y messaging of bands like The Desperate Bicycles, Sniffing Glue fanzine and early UK punk labels like Stiff, Chiswick and Rough Trade, these bands chose mainly to go into a studio and make their own private press/D-I-Y records themselves - then try to work out everything else (promotion, marketing, etc) afterwards. As mainly outsiders to the mainstream music industry, and usually unable to make any inroads into it, save for sending their own record to John Peel, most of these bands fell at the first hurdle. These records remain both beautifully crafted 3-minute musical gems, and long-lost micro-histories of an essentially hidden genre.
