FARM
"FARM"
US ORIGINAL LP-S-465 LP, STILL IN SHRINK!
MEGA-RARE 1970 ORIGINAL GOLDEN VOICE STUDIOS PRIVATE PRESSING, ONE OF THE VERY BEST OF ALL INDEPENDENT PSYCH-ERA ROCK LP'S TO COME OUT OF THE MIDWEST, BAR NONE. GREAT AGRESSIVE GUITAR PLAYING AND SOLID ALL THE WAY AROUND, THIS LP WILL SURPRISE YOU IF YOU'VE NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE. NO, IT IS NOT 'STEPHEN & THE FARM BAND' OR ANY OF THE OTHER '...AND...' BANDS, THIS GROUP WAS SIMPLY CALLED 'FARM', AND THEIR LP COVER & LABEL GRAPHICS ARE JUST AS SIMPLISTIC. THEIR MUSIC TOO IN A WAY, STRAIGHT-FORWARD NO FRILLS PSYCH ROOTS OF HEAVY ROCK.
AKARMA HAS REISSUED THIS AS A 10" FOR SOME REASON, PROBABLY BECAUSE THE LP TIMES IN AT ABOUT 26 MINUTES (NOT UNUSUAL IN IT'S DAY), BUT THIS IS THE REAL DEAL. IT WAS RECORDED AT GOLDEN VOICE IN SOUTH PEKIN JUST ACROSS THE RIVER BUT NEVER, EVER TURNS UP AROUND HERE. THIS IS ONLY THE SECOND COPY I'VE HAD IN ALMOST 10 YEARS. EXTREMELY RARE. PLUS, THIS IS THE NICEST COPY I'VE EVER SEEN, STILL IN THE SHRINKWRAP WITH MINOR SUPERFICIAL MARKS THAT YOU HAVE TO LOOK FOR TO FIND. PLAYING SURFACE STILL GLISTENS, LABELS ARE IMMACULATE. 100% PROUD-TO-OWN KEEPER COPY.
TRACKS:
- JUNGLE SONG
- LET THAT BOY BOOGIE
- SUNSHINE IN MY WINDOW
- COTTONFIELD WOMAN
- STATESBORO BLUES
OVERALL COVER IS NEAR MINT IN SHRINK,
THE LP IS A VERY CRITICAL SOLID VG++ TO NEAR MINT
A BEAUTY! RARE!
