SECOND COMING

Private Press Lp - AE 100

Issued in 1970, this is one of only a few known copies from that 1st original issue

Members:

Dave Bixby

 Brian Macinness

Sandy Johnson

Don DeGraaf

This private pressing has a bit of it all:

lost psych cosmic folk/rock loner-downer psychedelic

 An internet search will bring up a lot of new information on this record,

including this quote on the origin of this, the original issue of the album:

"...One thing that I did find very interesting though was taken from the incredibly informative insert included with the (reissue)album, it's that during this time Ode To Quetzalcoatl had done quite well for Dave and they were selling the album at all of the shows they played. In fact so successful that the seemingly guru like Don Degraff chose to use Bixby's talent for his own profit. Using the Second Coming recordings (which were already made) he slapped his picture on the front and titled it under a group name, "Harbinger" which tied it directly to the cult known as "The Group". This was a group of people that came later to worship Don religiously, and it was something Dave apparently always felt really leary of. He has since been associated with The Group but was never a full fledged member. This is all likely why this album is even harder to find than his first, it was not only a private pressing but strictly a cult album, which was sold at services and concerts. When those responsible for the reissues were looking for source copies of the albums (no master tapes exist) they could only track down 2 copies of Second Coming. That just shows how rare it is..."
