In the spirit of Air Trees Water Animals, we offer to you this repurposed cover edition of "Walking In The Truth". We rescued vintage album covers from the garbage dump and turned them into packaging for this project. Most of these repurposed covers are no less than 40 years old. Each one has its own individual signs of wear and handling. Some are in better shape than others; each has its own unique story, history, and energy. Oh, the tales these covers could tell! Now, instead of being discarded, they have new life as protectors of the Manson music they enclose. Only 50 were made. None are genuine without the TPOS stamp and number.
This album was recorded by Charles Manson while he was incarcerated at the Vacaville facility in California. Manson sings and plays guitar. The performance is free form, created in the moment without inhibition. It takes the listener on a journey through the hobo jungles of America's train yards into the prison system, and ultimately into the singer's very mind.
The master tape was made under imperfect conditions and given to his friends on the outside. Technical limitations will be apparent.
We are happy to combine shipping on multiple items. Please contact us for more information.
