Another Trip to montreal recently allowed me to dig deeper into Quebec's golden 60's Psych/Pop/Garage bins and I turned up some great gems. Lots of these 45s are relatively obscure and unheard in most english-speaking territories. Quebec made up the third biggest record buying market in the 60's so it allowed for a multitude of regional hits with decent sales figures considering how few of these records broke out of Quebec itself let alone Canada.
Mixed in are some cool Instrumentals crossing psych and soul together yielding some awesome results.
60's Quebec was truly the place to be and it's evidenced further by this awesome telephone book I found there:
