Description
"The Evil One" is a 1981 debut album by American psychedelic rock singer Roky Erickson with his band the Aliens, after his time with the band 13th Floor Elevators. The songs were recorded in 1979 with producer Stu Cook, former bass player of Creedence Clearwater Revival. Cook also played bass on two tracks, "Sputnik" and "Bloody Hammer."
Austin Chronicle writer Scott Schinder called Erickson's 1980s albums, released after his half-decade involuntary stay in a Texas psychiatric hospital, "the clearest glimpse into his raging musical soul." He described " The Evil One" as "the mother lode. It's the disc on which Erickson comes across most clear-eyed, and the source of many of his best-loved solo songs."[
The copy offered here is in Near Mint condition. The cover has some tiny dots on it (as if a very minor meteorite storm passed by at some point). Otherwise perfect, I rate it as Excellent. (See Pics.) I believe the inner sleeve is the original, and it is also in great condtion with only two creases. See more information below.
