Description
You are bidding on what I believe to be one of the last known Hickory Wind Vinyl LP’s in Evansville, IN. There were only 100 of these printed on the Evansville, Indiana record label Gigantic Records. Three members from Hickory Wind became the legendary band BF Trike, This album is one of the most sought after of all 60’s/70’s Psychedelic Rockadelic albums. A True Gem and an absolute deleted rarity. THE ViINYL IS IN AMAZING SHAPE – IT LOOKS BRAND NEW. THE COVER IT SELF IS ALSO IN GREAT SHAPE. The camera I have used to take these pictures does not lie – I have taken pictures to show the slight corner crease and slight side ding on the cover, but again the vinyl itself is in impeccable shape – it looks brand new. I believe this to be the best one ever offered on eBay. This vinyl record is probably one of only 50 remaining – if there are even that many. Hickory Wind was made up of: Sonny Prentice, Mike Mc Guyer, Allen Jones, and Bob Strehl. Midwest female country rocker Lee Hyatt also sings on the track Judy. Just amazing! Please email me with any questions.
Here are some quotes from various websites and sources on the internet (thanks to those who provided such great Psych and Rockadelic websites:
“Rural rocker with lots of rootsy Band-type numbers and country-influences; as you guess pretty far from the usual psych/guitar rock. One track has fuzzed hard rock aspirations and there are a couple of good slow numbers with organ as well. Quite unusual LP that can sound vastly different depending on the listener's mood, although at the end of side 2 I usually conclude that it's a remarkably consistent and well structured piece. ... some how this contributes to the album's earthy, realistic feel, like strolling into an Indiana bar one afternoon and finding a band on stage rehearsing. The closing ballad is a personal favorite. Moves in the same Americana roots regions as Traveler's Aid and Bear Mountain Band but is stronger all over, with an appealing small-town charm and grower qualities.” [PL]
“HICKORY WIND - Same (Gigantic US 69) Tragically rare Indiana psych statue. Fuzz acid West Coast rockers, jangly folk rock, some bluesy psych jammers. It's all here and done with verve. Pre-B.F.Trike ... Nice cover artwork”
"One of the earliest and now most expensive Rockadelic albums. This late '60s US psych rock band was... called Hickory Wind B.F.Trike"
