The *BEST* copies seen in years....

The Holy Modal Rounders psychedelic album...yep, dropped acid and recorded this 'masterpiece' ...Truly freaked out, wigging yee-haw git you high folk/psych. Get your loin cloth and free love on. Friendly and f'd-up contemporaries of the Fugs but with bigger hugs and a mightier stomp. The definitive freak folk. Makes you wanna give the electric jug a shot.
Like similar groundbreaking albums in 1966/1967, Indian War Whoop seemed like it came out of nowhere.
"Indian War Whoop" constituted a tribal crossover between a dervish dance and a saloon epileptic fit, and "Sweet Apple Cider" a stoned helium acid hippie serenade... here's the bottom line for highlights on the album:
"The Second-Hand Watch" went into full-blown psychedelic echo-delay dome mode, paving the way for "Radar Blues", a colossal masterpiece - a rural ballad carried by a gust of wind in a stream of molten deformed vocal-harmonies, forming various shapes along the way, from birds of prey, to enchanting sirens, to traditional dirge choral-parts, to L.S.D. chaos and so on. This experimental vocal-troupe vein continued in "Football Blues", but adorned with a cartoonish element of fury. This wonderful musical of the bizarre ends with the bittersweet harmonies of "Morning Glory", showing some structure beneath the chaos.
The demented heretic tone of the jug-band rural/blues "Cocaine Blues" actually hid a heartfelt melody and, similarly, the gypsy serenade "Sky Divers" camouflaged a musique-concrete barrage of electric violin and manic recitation before it veered in a more elegant traditional rural-ballad direction; but it wasn't over yet; a final twist transformed the song to a chamber-cabaret crossover. Exquisite!
Finding a better copy of the 43 year old artifact still in crisp shrink wrapper is much harder to find than you could imagine. We'd know...
