First Utterance
(Get Back - GET541) 2xLP $12.00
Taking British folk as a point of departure, First Utterance twists and oozes like vile snakes, pairing gorgeous melodies with ecstatic, altered vocals and vicious lyrics about rape, murder, witchcraft and abuse, all cooked with raging madness. Get Back's 1998 reissue includes three bonus tracks from their rare maxi-single (Dawn Records 1971). 180-gram vinyl, gatefold jacket.
Orgasm
(Get Back ) LP $10.00
Get Back's 1998 reissue of underground free tribal music from 1969 by Austin Grasmere, Brian Elliot, and The Connecticut Tribe. Dadaist psych-folk vibes dominate, with chanting, tribal percussion, short wave radio, maniacal, almost black metal vocals, hysterical laughter, bagpipes and more.
330,003 Crossdressers From Beyond The Rig Veda
(Get Back - GET718) 3xLP $55.00 (Out-of-stock)
(Abduction - ABDT008) Used 2xCD $40.00
The second vinyl reissue of their double-CD (Abduction 1996), partly an ethno-surrealist take on places and forms known (Indonesian gamelan, Bollywood soundtracks, Polynesian folk, surf stylistics, and sci-fi thematics) and partly a stupefying surreal ethnography of places yet to be discovered. Clear highlight is "Ghost Ghat Tresspass / Sussmeier," recorded live at Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco with Eyvind Kang on violin, but two tracks from the Torch Of The Mystics sessions and a couple remixes of tracks previously available only on 78rpm 10-inch (Perfect 1994) are nothing to snuff the incense over either.
