Clear vinyl reissue of Brainticket's Celestial Ocean, originally released in 1973. The brilliant Celestial Ocean, by the legendary Swiss krautrock band Brainticket, is a concept album that details an ancient pharoah's journey into the afterlife (substitute the word "journey" for "trip" and you'll get what they were driving at). However, Brainticket were not mere products of their time, they explored some truly compelling musical territory and produced a superlative blanket of sound-featuring a pioneering mix of early synthesizers, flute, zither, sitar, and male/female stream-of-consciousness spoken-word vocals that ebb-and-flow in the same general cosmos as classic Gong. Fully remastered from the original master tapes.
