Trippy Folk-Psych-Pop originals w/
Fuzz Guitar & Sitar. This delightful obscurity from

(ITEM 4) R. CRUMB & His Keep On Truckin' Orchestra
- 10" 78 RPM - Rare 1973 Debut Recording
Robert Crumb is best known for his
incredible pioneering underground comic book stories,
art, & characters, such as Fritz The Cat; Mr Natural;
The Snoid; Flakey Foont; Devil Girl; & many others.
This multi-talented master of the melancholy became
an American icon of legendary status, with a vast
body of work ranging from 60s & 70s album cover
art to the biographical documentary film "Crumb".
Along the way, R. Crumb began performing 1920's style
'syncopated' music of an early Jazz & Blues style
that Louis Armstrong would be proud of. On this nifty
10" Microgroove 78 RPM vinyl record, we hear two
exclusive selections: "River Blues" bw/ "Wisconsin
Wiggles". R. Crumb himself, can be heard
crooning & warbling, while the flip features a string
band with musical saw. Record sleeve & label art
is of course by R. Crumb, for this second April 1973
pressing, long out of print. This is his Debut Recording,
and plays with ANY 33 1/3rd Phonograph Needle, but even
if your turntable does not rev all the way up to 78
RPM, you'll still want to own this incredible R. Crumb
rarity, manufactured by the now defunct Krupp Comic
Words, of Milwaukee, WI. with the catchy motto: "A
HIGH STANDARD OF STANDARDNESS"

(ITEM 7) SUICIDE - Same
This innovative "pre-punk era"
NYC duo was an important influence on Birthday Party,
Soft Cell, Sigue Sigue Sputnik, Nine Inch Nails and
the Sisters Of Mercy with their potent fusion of rockabilly/blues
& electronic music on cheap equipment. Suicide's
shocking 1977 debut is an pioneering avant-garde lo-fi
masterpiece featuring some tremendous reverb, ear shattering
delay & echo. The amazingly catchy songs & melodies
are generally built around two-chords, & the powerful
minimalist repetition tends to increase the intensity.
Martin Rev is the maestro; & Alan Vega provides
verbal psychosis in a sub-Elvis rock & roll croon
through massive amounts of echo and delay. Oh yeah,
there are no guitars & the percussion heavy throbbing
beats & loops; rapid fire, but let's not confuse
it with Heavy Industrial, No-Wave or Techno Rock. Tracks
are: Ghost Rider; Rocket U.S.A; Cheree; Johnny; Girl;
Frankie Teardrop; Che. Not for all tastes.

(ITEM 8) ROY BUCHANAN - Buch And The Snake Stretchers
This is the original first edition
1971 Roy Buchanan "Buch & The Snakestretchers"
LP on his own privately pressed label, housed in its
original oversized burlap bag cover, roughly 18"
x 13", made of very thick burlap material, stitched
together at the sides with white thread, and spray painted
in large black and red stenciled letters. This one-of-a-kind
LP was produced & distributed by Gene Rosenthal.
The bag spraying of these highly collectible covers
took place in his driveway (circa 1971) in preparation
for this first edition release of only 500. Roy Buchanan
was thought to be the next Hendrix and on this album
he lets loose with his signature blistering guitar work.
The Snake Stretchers deliver heavy garagey blues rock
backup including versions of Neil Young's "Down
By The River", Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode",
some extended blues jams & two Buchanan originals.

(ITEM 9) JUDY HENSKE & JERRY YESTER- Farewell Aldebaran
Bluesy folk singer Judy Henske married
Jerry Yester who replaced Zal Yanovsky (in 1967) in
the Lovin' Spoonful until the group folded in 1968.
They are in rare form on this 1969 collaborative LP.
Judy Henske & Frank Zappa were managed by Herbie
Cohen. Zappa got Judy to put her poetry to music &
this LP was one of the first released on his Straight
label. It's a wildly eclectic, impressive album showcasing
her great vocal range, & owes more to psychedelic
music than folk. The cryptic production is reminiscent
of an adventurous Van Dyke Parks or Brian Wilson. Baroque
music filtered through acid-colored glasses. Henske
& Yester were later in a band called Rosebud, but
never matched the inspired weirdness of this record.
Jerry Yester & Zal Yanovsky co-produced the selections:
Snowblind (3:07); Horses on a Stick (2:10); Lullaby
(2:55); St. Nicholas Hall (3:35); Three Ravens (3:30);
Raider (5:12); Mrs. Connor (2:17); Rapture (4:09); Charity
(3:17); and the title track, Farewell Aldebaran (4:21).
A quintessential 'Acid-Folk' album if there ever was
one! The gatefold record jacket shows some color rubbing
but appears in overall Excellent condition. Back cover
is pictured.

(ITEM 10) THORNTON, FRADKIN, UNGER AND THE BIG BAND
Pass On This Side
Jazzy psych-folk singer-songwriter
LP by Leslie Fradkin & Paul Thornton of Godz, recorded
between 1970 & 1974, the year it was released. A couple
of interesting guest appearances sets this little known
effort apart from most others. The song "To Err
Is Human" was written & sung by David Peel,
while the title track, "God Bless California",
features Randy Edelman on piano & vocals. Backing him
are drummer Dennis Seiwell & two of his bandmates
from Wings, Paul & Linda McCartney, making this one
of their most obscure & collectible outings. Selections
are: God Bless California; M'Lady; Jimi (tribute to
Jimi Hendrix); Christopher's Sorrow; Walking Guitar
Blues; Oh Woman; To Err Is Human; Sometimes. The album
was packaged in a plain black cover, with plain black
labels & includes the original set of stickers with
which the buyer could assemble his own arrangement of
the cover art design. The insert sticker sheet has the
title strip, credits. plus 2 extra labels, red & green,
that you can stick onto the black labels if you want
to distinguish one side from the other. Additional musicians
include Bob Unger, Richard Davis, & Andrew Lloyd.
This was reissued on CD by ZYX in 1992 titled "Godz
Bless California" & credited to the Godz, but
here you're bidding on the seldom-seen original vinyl
release, with superior analog sound & the rare 63019
catalog number, not the later but still hard-to-find
3019 ESP catalog number. Includes seldom seen insert
of other ESP-Disk titles. This is the ultimate issue
for collectors of Godz or Paul McCartney rarities!

(ITEM 11) SING OUT! - 1965 Colwell Bros. Folk LP with
actress Glenn Close of The Green Glenn Singers
This is the hard-to-find PACE MAGAZINE
SING OUT MUSICAL that was broadcast in a television
spectacular sponsored by the Schick Safety Razor Co.
It celebrates the mid-1960's generation for it's achievements
of reaching farther into space, deeper below the sea,
and further into science & technology than those
before them. The motivational revue consists of The
Colwell Brothers, creators of the "Sing-Out"
musical explosion, "Up With People!" They
perform: Freedom Isn't Free; The Ride Of Paul Revere;
Design For Dedication; Don't Stand Still; You Can't
Live Crooked & Think Straight; A New Tomorrow; and
others. They also back singer Linda Blackmore on: The
Ballad Of Joan Of Arc; and Somewhere. The Green Glenn
Singers are led by now-famous actress GLENN CLOSE! I'm
not sure, but I think her father was the choral director.
She toured with "Up With People" for at least
a year. Gleen (as her name is mis-spelled in the liner
notes) is pictured with musicians Jennie Dorn, Vee Entwhistle,
and Kathe Green who perform: Run & Catch The Wind;
and The Happy Song. Charles Woodard performs Which Way
America?, and Effie Galletly is heard on The Spirit
Of The Green. The selections were written by The Colwell
Bros. & Herbert and David Bliss Allen. The record
cover includes photos & quoted endorsements from
John Wayne, Pat Boone, and Walt Disney! This is a seldom
seen Original 1965 STEREO pressing on the custom Pace
Magazine record label, with lyric innersleeve. Highly
unlikely to ever be released on CD.

(ITEM 12) BEATLESONGS! - The Best Of The Beatle Novelty
Records- Various Artists
With original William Stout cover artwork.
Due to the controversy that arose from the depiction
of Mark David Chapman on the cover, this album was quickly
pulled from distribution shortly after its release in
1982. Fairly tough to find now days, and the song selections
are great! More
