Love Cry Want
"Psychedelic improvisational spiritual avant-rock/jazz featuring the legendary Larry Young on organ and equally astounding Joe Gallivan on drums, steel guitar, Moog synth, and percussion; the mysterious Nicholas wailing on guitar synthesizer and ring modulator; and Jimmy Molneiri on drums and percussion -- recorded live at an anti-war rally in Washington D.C., in June 1972. They aimed the speakers at the Nixon White House, and blasted away as an anti-war protest! (The music so completely freaked…
Into You
* 2024 stock. Last copies. * One of the "holy grails" of Indianapolis private-pressdom (surpassed only by Zerfas and Anonymous) available again in its original format! Ray "McKay" Pierle and his musically-adept brothers and friends partied, jammed and partied some more on Indy's south side throughout the mid-70's, forming a band (Loos) which managed to garner zero media attention at the time. However, Ray's trusty Teac four-track was always close at hand and countless hours of home recordings we…
Montgomery Chapel
* 300 copies limited edition * Recorded at the San Francisco Theological Seminary’s own Montgomery Chapel, acid-folk-rock psychedelic gem Search Party "Montgomery Chapel" was the brainchild of (then Reverend) Nicholas Freund. Having left Wisconsin in the late 1960s to join a burgeoning West Coast religious scene, Freund spent considerable time in Sacramento before making their way to San Francisco in 1968 to lay down this one-off with some students of his. The result is a spooky, metaphysical tr…
We Have Waited: Singles And Unreleased
Huge buzz saw bass churns its way through this heavy-progressive tune, all stern Fripp-ian chord changes and driving insistency, amidst the primal guitar sludge.” — Julian Cope’s Head Heritage website
Spirit Of Elijah
"This isn't just the best Christian album I've heard. It may possibly be the best album in the laid back, West Coast late 1960's-early 70's style that I've heard, period." — Acid Archives
Innocent Canon
** Coloured Vinyl edition ** Original masters licensed by King Records Japan. Includes OBI and insert. 'Innocent Canon' is one of the hopelessly obscure Japanese underground albums that few people know about. It is a kind of unreleased delirious groovadelic soundtrack played by an acid-soaked Japanese big band with powerful drumming, heavy jazz fumes and delirious organ/guitar lines and luminary narration.Inomata was a well-known jazz musician at the time, but like many of his contemporaries, h…
Release The Sunshine
When we first issued this terrific album—twelve perfect examples of dreamy sunshine pop/folk psych released by independent Canadian label Allied Records in 1968—on CD some time ago, our booklet featured the few scraps of information on the band we could find. We challenged “anyone out there” to find some information on this elusive and intriguing band, with the offer of a reward that would be “something very Folklordish.” Well, we’re pleased to say that someone took us up on that offer, and that…
Limonada
*2024 stock* Although they sprung ready-made from of the ashes of legendary candombe/beat group El Kinto, one of the best-kept secrets from Uruguay’s musical mythology is nevertheless the group of musicians who recorded one album as Limonada. So what happened? The story starts with the end of El Kinto, when band leader and iconoclastic maniac Eduardo Mateo decided to embark on a solo career (see our Lion Productions collection of his early music for more details), and the other members of El Kin…
Pylons
* 250 copies edition limited. 2024 stock * The hipness and success of London punk-explosion photocopy fanzine Sniffin' Glue was almost entirely due to the irreverent, pugnacious sincerity of its founder/spark-plug Mark Perry. That Perry should form a band (Alternative TV) seemed a natural progression; that it was any good at all a surprise; that it maintained a stance utterly disdainful of compromise a small miracle.” The Good Missionaries emerged, phoenix-like, from the ashes of Alternative TV …
Dreams Of 75
Lothar Jahn’s "February '75” single was released by the German label Sound Records in 1977 — a very unusual record, somewhere between psychedelic, folk, and Krautrock. That single was reviewed thus on Discogs: “A mysterious journey through Cosmic Psych Folk Kraut, whatever you may call it. Fantastic, from beginning to end. Another Kraut on 45 milestone.” This newly recorded album, “Dreams of ’75,” is an extended riff on the original single, taking that smaller vision as a starting point and th…

Nobody Knows The Heaven
*300 hand-numbered limited edition. 2024 stock. * It's 1975 in Paris. Two young guys in their bed-sit (one of whom is French music maven/famous producer Jay Alansky) are dreaming of counter-culture, and their internal versions of California and New York. The result is this album, a child begotten of Marc Bolan, Baudelaire, and Lautreamont. It's a fascinating record, engaging as it is scare- a look into a parallel pop universe. Somehow, the duo got their record released on Monde Melody's one-off …
Collected Singles
Not many albums can get you in the mood to blow out your speakers quite like Kath “1”, the hideously rare and expensive 1974 low-fi, semi-ramshackle DIY psychedelic LP made by members of Maryland band Badge, recorded in the home of band leader Val Rogolino (and, yes, dedicated to his girlfriend and their pet monkey!). What Patrick the Lama said in Acid Archives about Kath, is equally applicable to Badge: “Obscure and impressive melodic basement garage/psych with a lo-fi atmosphere that would hav…
Rymd
*2024 stock. 180 copies limited edition* "My work is about trying to sonically describe my own emotions, thoughts, and feelings that I experience in the different situations that I am in, such as the things that I see and the moments I live through. Sometimes the music is somber and cold and very digital in nature; other times it is hopeful and warm and more human in nature – but one does not exclude the other. My music is really an observation of both the external and the internal in my life.
