TERENCE AND THE TIGHT WIRE (Oklahoma)     The Eighth Day Promotional Album, 1982     (WIN KM-10188)

A 12” mini-LP that may be about the resurrection of Jimi Hendrix on the 8th day. Overall, it’s a pretty intense weird and killer LP. Terence (or whoever is playing guitar) has definitely seemed to have managed to recall Jimi’s spirit, or at least channeled him for this album. “The Eighth Day” has a hymnal-like opening of an off-key phased vocal over a solemn chorus, leading into a grunged-out guitar, sheets of fuzz over piano for a rock musical number about Jimi returning for one more show and living in our hearts (Jimi Christ Superstar?). There’s a good wah-wah break and a lengthy ending solo. This blends into a weird wordless chorale “Call of the Spirit” based on the opening hymnal. Then a short pause before the album’s showpiece, “Hendrix Medley” – think Freddie Mabuhay and Golden Dragon as a Hendrix tribute band. “Purple Haze” leads into the heaviest cover of “Hey Joe” I’ve ever heard. The medley’s finale is a proto-grunge “Wild Thing.” Side 2 opens with the inexplicably titled “Cleaner Than the Board of Health”, a Hendrix-inspired, heavy funk-metal-psych instrumental with synthesized guitar. Another heavy funk psych instro, “Chris Is Here Now”, follows, without the metal of the previous track. Since there are no vocals, we never find out who Chris is or why he’s here. A sentimental piano-led rewording of “Auld Lang Syne” opens with Terence thanking Jimi for all he did for him, then turns into a heavy grunge version (traditional lyrics intact) with a guitar freak-out finale. The label lists a final cut, a reprise of “Call of The Spirit,” but this doesn’t exist on the vinyl. I guess it’s the spirit living on in our hearts. Attempts at tracking Terence have failed, but a Texan investigator reports that ‘Terence recorded 8th Day and filmed a music video while in OKC and then moved to NYC to shop around his movie idea which was, like the album, about the second coming of Jimi Hendrix. Rumors and bold claims have it that Prince’s Purple Rain may have been inspired by Terence’s film script/idea.’
