DOUG JEREBINE 'Doug Jerebine Is Jesse Harper' LP (US, Drag City, Catalogue #DC-452) Brand new/unplayed copy of limited year 2012 Drag City label LP edition of rare 1969 Acetate recording (recorded in London) of heavy psych/hard rock by New Zealand trio headed by guitarist and singer Doug Jerebine.

(NOTE: LIMITED VINYL EDITION!)

Doug Jerebine is one of New Zealand’s (almost) lost musical legends – turning his back on a promising musical career in the early 1970’s, Doug joined the Hare Krishna’s and stopped making music. The debut album he recorded in 1969 which was never released has seen the light of day, being released as Doug Jerebine is Jesse Harper – a nod to his on stage persona of the 60’s and 70’s. The album might be over 40 years old but it still blows away just about everyone else trying to do that 60’s psychedelic blues rock thing that Hendrix conjured up. Doug Jerebine had that whole Hendrix sound down pat and, if he’d kept at it, could have been the biggest thing to come out of this country.

Doug Jerebine Is Jesse Harper is an archival release sure to resonate with fans of Jimi Hendrix, 10 Years After, Randy Holden, Merrell Fankhauser and the HMS Bounty, Spirit and other heavy sounds not truly heard and felt since the days of Gary Yoder and Kak! The mystery of the Jesse Harper album, long rumored and gossiped about, is finally brought to light for all to hear and enjoy, with thrilling liner notes openly revealing the man behind the myth! Doug Jerebine is alive and well, recently resurfaced, gigging and recording again! Is Jesse Harper is the original artifact, set to excite underground psych rockers, uptight collector nerds, and geezer-dad gig-goers all around the world! Is Jesse Harper is a perfectly realized testament from that era, a record that bubbles psychedelically with shuffling beats and active bass, ultimately defined by a fuzzy haze of dripping guitar leads backdropped against strident and arpeggiated riffs, chords, and slabs of rhythm. Cohesively intertwined with spiritual perspectives and memorable choruses, Is Jesse Harper's songs reach that universal plane so often sought after but rarely discovered on record.
