Description
MUSHROOM CEREMONY OF THE MAZATEC INDIANS OF MEXICO
FOLKWAYS FR 8975
Recorded by R. Gordon Wasson in 1956, Oaxaca, Mexico. Nocturnal mushroom rite performed by Maria Sabina. This recording attempts to chronicle a religious ceremony involving the ingestation of psychedelic mushrooms by Indians who are attempting to communicate with the Divine Spirit. Lots of wild, hallucinatory chanting and the like, which might even appeal to fans of phonetic sound poems or dadaist utterings. When possible, the text of the chants is translated in the booklet. Possibly the first recordings of a psychedelic experience released on LP.
CONDITION is EX/EX, light cover wear and a few tiny tears to wrap around paste-on. LP has a few light surface marks, heavy early Folkways vinyl. Comes with booklet of notes and photos. NO RESERVE!
