Description
The Beat Of The Earth: same 1967, USA/Radish AS-0001. Disc has a small scuff at the beginning of side one that does not sound, on the plus side this example does not have any little pressing bubbles, it gets an EX to M- grade and plays perfectly. Cover is M- in shrink wrap with sharp corners, it's flawless. The Beat Of The Earth was not a rock band proper, but a musical collective of local hippies and ex-Beatniks. This first LP is a collection of improvisations recorded in the studio and it's like a document of the unpredictable sound collage that one might have experienced at one of the early acid happenings. It really works, you can practically see the liquid light show on the walls as it plays. Viewed with that mindset, it's a perfect album. It sounds just like it's supposed to, and the cover absolutely reeks of southern California hippie vibes. Two sidelong flipouts with Lou Reed-like vocals and totally druggy, primitive instrumentation; this LP has mesmerized more than a few psych collectors over the years. A real unique item from California's vast 1960s music canon.
