LOVERS & FRIENDS : I Want to go home with You" (Aries)1977 Original private pressing outsider lounge psych prog weirdness with the original cover art (ie. it has the front cover pasted on slick...most are missing and are printed with the word Parasite on the cover, this is not)  Here is a great review from "Acid Archives" :

This is a rather amiable pastiche of hippie goofball roots music and straight lounge band renditions, with one inexplicable moment. The former features a male vocalist doing stoned rambling and rather loose instrumental arrangements. This is exemplified by the rock & roll medley, which has the most restrained r'n'r instrumental backing for a totally wasted, over-the-top singer. The lounge selections feature a bubbly female singer over super tight arrangements. Their rendition of "Send In The Clowns" ranks in the TOP ECHELON of lounge covers. The overall effect of the juxtaposition of these two styles produces the most schizoid musical statement since Robert Schumann split into Florestan and Eusebius. Now for that inexplicable moment, which is actually 8 minutes long and falls into both styles. "Misty" has a 5+ minute intro for a 2 1/2 minute song. It starts off innocently enough, then suddenly veers into proto industrial space, surely earning this the right to be included on an updated Nurse With Wound list. Think Amon Duul playing at your local cocktail lounge. Atonal guitar shards abruptly morph into fiddle-led hoe-down as the intro (called on the label "Intro") ends and the vocal portion (called on the label "The Rest") commences, with a hillbilly vocal that reminds one of Arthur Godfrey's singing on the 2nd Moby Grape l.p. Please note that all the goings on described here are all on the tune "Misty". ............... The back cover and the labels call the band "Lovers & Friends". The back also has a series of 36 photos of random objects, and appears to be out of the Jandek school of photography. The labels, rather then calling the sides 1 & 2, call them "Side Of Recluses" and "Windy Side".

PACKAGING/SHIPPING/POSTAGE:PLEASE NOTE: I have set my shipping prices to cover my cost on an average basis. Your box may cost me a bit less to mail than I charged you, or a bit more.Priority postage can vary from zip code to zip code and Records and jackets don't all weigh the same amount, therefore I can't set a "perfect" price for everyone, ESPECIALLY INTERNATIONAL! I ship all lp's in a new rigid custom LP mailer and filler pads with the disc in inner sleeve placed behind cover to prevent seam splitting in transit. Part of my postage fee covers the cost of the mailer and pads. I DO NOT use flimsy "freebie" post office priority mailers!...
