Description

Sisters Of The Incarnate Word -- Composed For You LP

Original 1974 US stereo private pressing issued by Agency Recording Studios (Cleveland OH) (catalog # ARS 1210/1211, crudely stamped labels).

This is an astonishing, breathtaking record.

There's a charming, shambling trad folk feel to some of these songs, strumming and loping rhythmically in a primitive acoustic Shaggs-ian way. And then there's the simply mind-blowing "Speak To Me Of Life", one of the absolute greatest songs I've ever found in hunting down folk-psych private presses... an epic, existential, spine-tingling exploration into the psyche of one who hears the calling... the music is urgent and chaotic, with shimmering double-tracked echoey vocals and frantically-strummed droning acoustic guitars punctuated by snare hits like shots from a rifle. It's every bit as psychedelic and profound as any of the neo-weird-free-folk of the last decade, or any of the private 60s/70s Xian folk LPs which command huge prices today. (mp3 below)

I cannot find a single reference to this album's existence anywhere on the web. It was made in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1974. The words and music to the two songs here were written by Sister Patrica Jean Smithyman.
