RARIDADE MÁXIMA!!! 🎸 BANDA EXTREMAMENTE RARA FORMADA EM ROCHESTER(NY) ALI PELO FINAL DOS ANOS 60!! AS MÚSICAS FORAM GRAVADAS NO PALCO DO TEATRO DA UNIVERSIDADE DE ROCHESTER PELA "BRIGHTON SOUND" EM 8 BOBINAS DE ROLO!! ATÉ HOJE NUNCA FOI LANÇADO EM LP NEM EM CD!! AS FITAS FORAM ACHADAS POR "JOSH JETTY", FILHO DO BATERISTA DA RED WHITE & BLUES, "EARL JETTY", O QUAL REPASSOU AS CANÇÕES PARA OS VENENOS!! NA VERDADE O FILHO BUSCA ATÉ HOJE ALGUMA GRAVADORA INTERESSADA EM LANÇAR ESSE ÁLBUM OFICIALMENTE NO MERCADO, MAS ATÉ O MOMENTO NÃO SURGIRAM INTERESSADOS!! A GRANDE DIFICULDADE É QUE, MESMO O BATERISTA SENDO SEU PAI, ELE NÃO DETÉM OS DIREITOS AUTORAIS DAS MÚSICAS E NEM IMAGINA QUEM SEJAM OS DETENTORES, POR ISSO É QUE ESSAS MÚSICAS ESTÃO PERDIDAS NA OBSCURIDADE!! 🎸 VALE LEMBRAR QUE DEPOIS DESSAS GRAVAÇÕES A BANDA MUDA O NOME PARA "JOSHUA", GRAVANDO MAIS ALGUMAS PEROLAS QUE TAMBÉM FICARAM NA OBSCURIDADE E LOGO VOU POSTAR PARA OS ENVENENADOS A...
RARA E LENDÁRIA BANDA PSICODÉLICA QUE FAZIA UM SOM A BASE DE VIOLÕES, GUITARRA ACUSTICA E UM HAMMOND OCASIONAL!! EXCELENTE SONORIDADE E UM VENENO RARO MAS TRANQUILO!! SEM ALUCINAÇÕES!! DEPOIS DOS JAPAS PIRADOS E ACIDOS UMA CALMADINHA NO CÉREBRO É PRECISO!!
Finally re-pressed and now remastered after two years here is the album by this legendary garage band from Humbolt, Iowa. Taken from the original master tapes the one and only self titled album was originally released on IGL in 1970 and only 800 copies were pressed 500 of which were destroyed before it even got released. All former members of the band worked closely with GEAR FAB to realise this great CD which is a god send for those who do not wish to pay up to $500 for an original. Includes one bonus track that was orignally recorded under the name SHADRACK.
