Thick White gatefold - one of the most wear-prone covers usually shows wear dirt & soil after 45 years... here an incredible TOP COPY, looks UN-PLAYED!!!
One of the best Spirit albums highlighted by the infectious tracks "Natures Way", "Animals Zoo" and "Mr. Skin" ....but there is a lot more....
.....................................................................
Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus by the psychedelic rock ensemble Spirit is a diverse yet cohesive effort, sci-fi-based, and a loose concept album. The album's key track is "Nature's Way", and the group's most notable hit (along with "I've Got a Line on You" ) the band would ever produce. "Mr. Skin" also became a hit single in the U.S., three years after the album's release. The album also includes several other less well-known tunes which are considered to have had an impact on the genre of experimental rock in the United States.
The album influenced many other groups, and just as in previous attempts, Spirit fused aspects of jazz, folk & psych together with their traditional rock styling, but also introduced added elements of space rock, or popular music's science-fiction subset. This innovative LP is also notable as one of the first rock albums to use the newly-developed Moog synthesizer.
Everything came together with Dr. Sardonicus. It was the best of an era that embraced good musicianship, electronic wizardry, and no fear for pushing the envelope.
Dr. Sardonicus is a lush musical feast for the ear and the head. This album would probably be better known today if the original band had continued after its release. Alas, they did not. This is an album that is probably rightfully considered a "cult classic."
