CREATIVE ARTS ENSEMBLE

"NEWBORN" 1970'S ORIGINAL US PRIVATE PRESSING ILLINOIS STATE UNIVERSITY #780923!

TOTALLY OBSCURE PRIVATE PRESSING LP FROM NORMAL, ILLINOIS, ILLINOIS STATE UNIVERSITY MUSIC DEPARTMENT JAZZ BAND, RECORDED AT THE LEGENDARY GOLDEN VOICE STUDIOS IN SOUTH PEKIN, ILLINOIS, OUTSIDE OF PEORIA.

I CAN'T PUT AN EXACT DATE ON THIS BUT IT IS CERTAINLY A 70'S LP, AND NO LATER THAN MID-70'S SINCE THE STUDIO CLOSED SHORTLY THEREAFTER AND THEN BURNED TO THE GROUND! 

TO ME THIS SOUNDS A LOT LIKE A ROCK/JAZZ COMBINATUION WITH SOME DEFINITE CHICAGO TRANSIT AUTHORITY INFLUENCE, RUDIMENTARY THOUGH IT MIGHT BE, WITH VOCALS THAT REMIND ME AT TIMES OF THE BETTER ASPECTS OF GROUPS LIKE THE FIFTH DIMENSION. THERE IS SOME BLUES INFLUENCE AS WELL, AND THE SOLOISTS AT TIMES MAYBE AREN'T QUITE A SHARP AS THEY THINK THEY ARE, WHICH GIVES IT A SORT OF EDGE AND INNOCENCE THAT IS VERY ATTRACTIVE.

I'VE BEEN HERE FOR 33 YEARS AND NEVER SAW THIS ALBUM BEFORE. IT'S NOT AS SLICK OR PSYCHEDELIC AS MALAWI OF COURSE, BUT IT HAS MOMENTS AND I THINK IT'S VERY WORTHY OF INCLUSION IN ANY SERIOUS COLLECTION OF RARE PRIVATE PRESS ROCK & JAZZ LP'S. 

WE FOUND INSIDE OF THIS ALBUM COVER A BLUE 4-PAGE PR0M0 FOLDER FOR A MUCH LATER ISU JAZZ PERFORMANCE 'THE MANY FACES OF THE CREATIVE ARTS ENSEMBLE' SPOTLIGHTING BLUES & R&B BY THE ISU CREATIVE ARTS ENSEMBLE OF 1984, SO THIS MAY HAVE BELONGED EITHER TO AN ALUMNI, PERHAPS A MEMBER OF THE ORIGINAL BAND ON THIS ALBUM, OR A LONG-TIME ISU SUPPORTER. SO YOU GET THE VERY FIRST CREATIVE ARTS ENSEMBLE GROUP ALBUM AND A SOUVENIR OF THE ONGOING PROGRAM FROM 14 YEARS LATER, PROVING HOW SUCCESSFUL THE PROGRAM BECAME, BASED ON THOSE FINE FOUNDERS THAT APPEAR ON THIS ALBUM! INTERESTING! ALSO INSIDE WAS AN 11x14 FLYER/PROGRAM FOR ANOTHER ISU EVENT, 'BETH HORNER STORYTELLER' WHICH I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT.

CONDITION DETAILS:

• VERY LIGHT SHELF WEAR & SLIGHT BACK COVER SOIL
• VERY LIGHT PLAY WEAR, MINOR
• NO WRITING, NO STICKERS

TRACKS:

• YOU NEED HIM
• TOO MANY ENDINGS
• SUZIE
• LIFE
