Description
MARANATHA "Soon" 1971 (no label no#) [4]* RARITY SCALE (copied from Underground Sounds)
Unopened in possession of original band member No Reserve
X-ian hippie rock with equal mix of hard guitar and moody acoustic numbers. Several unrelated x-ian groups recorded LPs under this name as well. [RM]
---
New Jersey's Maranatha has that same longhaired homegrown west-coast guitar psych sound as Spokane's Wilson McKinley. In fact, I might go so far as to say that Soon is on equal footing with the classic "Spirit of Elijah" - it's that good... here the style seems much more garage angled and hippie jamming. ... An insanely rare private press and easily one of the top US Christian monsters. [KS] (only 500 pressed and last 1 for sale of 2 unopened copies)
