Stunning mix of Kreyol mythology, voodoo mambo-jumbo, a whiff of Santeria, a touch of superstition, the smell of burning incense, the incredible group of session musicians consisting of some of the greatest New Orleans funksters of the time, a few zombies, headless chickens and black widows tossed in for good measure, just a hint of dried bat wings, and on top of it, the great, smoky, mesmerizing, voice of the legendary Dr. John Creux.

 

And, oh, did we forget to mention: tons and tons of peyote, weed,  and acid and other chemical substances liberally sprinkled all over? 

 

These are only some of the BASIC ingredients of this gloriously bizarre New Orleans psychofunkadelic album – truly one of its kind. Nothing like this has been attempted before – or ever again. And for good reason: you cannot  replicate this stuff.

·       CONDITION:

 

·       RECORD

 

 (IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

 

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL  AS  NEAR MINT. Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions – mostly sleeve scuffs -  are (barely) visible, but are probably inaudible,  and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

 

(b)          The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

 

(c)           The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

 

(d)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
