- DESCRIPTION: WOW! VERY RARE, MOODY, EDGY PRIVATE-PRESS CHRISTIAN FOLK-ROCK/PSYCH by OBSCURE group from tiny Las Vegas, New Mexico! Homemade job of EXCELLENT mostly-original tunes, by group related to the LEGENDARY "Guitar Ensemble". Great mix of acoustic and electric.
Here’s what Acid Archives says: "Credited to ‘Concern’, this recording takes the best half of Guitar Ensemble's ‘The You-N-You’ (the Bob Rivas tracks) and adds some cool new topical ones by Eloy Montoya with electric guitar and moody organ moves. Rarer than either of the Guitar Ensemble LPs".
And if you check out the SUPERB reviews "You-N-You" gets in Acid Archives and Scott & Felberg’s The Archivist (not to mention the solid review in Fuzz, Acid and Flowers) – and this is better and rarer - then you know this is A REMARKABLE RARE GEM – DON’T MISS OUT!!

- LABELS: VG++/NM-
- Guidelines reflect TYPICAL factors determining grade - variations are noted in the description.
- Please note I DO NOT USE EXCELLENT (EX) as a grade.
- Please note my VG and G grades for vinyl generally are BETTER THAN GOLDMINE'S
- Flaws for ALL covers graded VG or less, and labels graded VG+ or less, are noted in the description.
- Vinyl graded VG or less is appropriately spot play-graded to assure sound quality.

- Intermediate grades (e.g., NM-, VG/VG+, G+) are used, as applicable.

- NM+ (Near Mint Plus) - Factory sealed with minor cover flaws, OR an otherwise mint LP recently opened by me and played in spots for demonstration purposes
- NM (Near Mint) - vinyl, cover and labels nearly flawless
- VG+ (Very Good Plus) - what many refer to as "excellent"; pretty close to NM. Full or nearly full-gloss vinyl with a few minor surface or sleeve marks; possibly one or a couple small, light scuffs or scratches (if basically inaudible) on an otherwise NM piece. Expect minimal or very slight (at worst) surface noise in spots. Cover has very slight general wear, OR minimal wear and a couple of very minor flaws (noted as applicable in the description)
