Among the coolest and certainly among the earliest of the CD reissue labels to emerge in the mid to late 1980s, Sundazed was founded by musicologist Bob Irwin. In 2013, Sundazed is still going strong (check out the latest Sundazed CD reviews in the Summer 2013 reissue section of mwe3.com) and Bob continues to evolve, not only as a label honcho but as a musician too. Case in point is a fantastic, 2013 instrumental music CD on Sundazed, featuring his groups The Pluto Walkers and his other band El Futuro Sonidos, each of which features the same players. Decked out in cool CD (and vinyl) cover art, The Throwaway Age looks (and sounds) like an original motion picture soundtrack (perhaps to the story of our lives!) and features Bob’s inspired electric guitar work backed up by his Pluto Walkers / El Futuro Sonidos band mates including Chris Fisher (drums), Michael Dunn (organ, moog) and Ed Wasilewski (bass). Over the past 20+ years, Bob and Sundazed have worked with many of the best American guitar greats, including (but not limited to) The Ventures, Davie Allan and Dick Dale, and you can count those same icons as being among the chief influences on The Throwaway Age. Check out The Throwaway Age for the cool cover art that evokes those classic 1960s soundtracks, but get it for the cool sonic guitar grooves in play throughout this essential 13 track instrumental guitar classic. www.sundazed.com
