A legendary figure from the South African 60s-70s underground music scene, the “hippie king of Cape Town” formed the Snakeshed band in the 70s along with top guitar player Martin Kopelowitz and keyboardist / producer Peter Hubner. Refusing offers from some record labels who insisted they should go “commercial”, they decided to record and release their first album, “Classic Epics”, all by themselves. Released in 1982 on their own private label, this is one of South African Prog/Psych crown jewels. Layers of acoustic / electric guitars, Gilmour-alike guitar solos, ultra-melodic vocals, effects, cool Oriental-Tao inspired lyrics…Culminating on the haunting 14-minutes long “Desert” For the first time remastered from the original tapes.Insert with rare photos and liner notes by Aaron Milenski (Acid Archives). “Mysterious psych prog monster LP which gets better & better…Dreamy organ & soaring fuzz leads, at times like a cross between Marcus & Pink Floyd with folk elements & melodics all over the rhythmic grooves. Eastern tinged lyrics & samurai charging vocals which float amidst the pools of organ & catch late Beatle harmonic embers” – Paul Major “Terrific flowing westcoasty 70s rock with deep psych atmospheres on the 14-minute “Desert” – Patrick Lundborg (Lysergia.com) Artist Steve Linnegar's Snakeshed Genre Psychedelia / Garage Label Guerssen Buying Options 1LP Includes Insert Format 1LP , Includes Insert Condition New Country Spain Track Listings Tao Ch'ang Wu Wei Monitoring Kamakura Dragons Lamplight Shines Desert Cry Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Psychedelia / Garage View Product Quick View Shira Small The Line Of Time And The Plane Of Now Psychedelia / Garage | Numero Group | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 1st September 2023 £22.00 - £23.00 Select options Shira Small The Line Of Time And The Plane Of Now £22.00 - £23.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Numero Group Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 1st September 2023 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Wild Rocket Dissociation Mechanics Psychedelia / Garage | Art For Blind | 1LP Released 7th July 2017 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Wild Rocket Dissociation Mechanics £16.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Art For Blind SKU: AFB55LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 7th July 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Seeds, The The Seeds Psychedelia / Garage | GNP Crescendo | 2LP Released 27th January 2017 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Seeds, The The Seeds £34.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: GNP Crescendo SKU: GNP2299 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 27th January 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Creation Singles Collection Psychedelia / Garage | Get Back | 180g, 1LP Released 11th June 2012 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Creation Singles Collection £17.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Get Back SKU: GET0518LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 11th June 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Acid Mothers Temple Ripper at the Heavens’ Gates of Dark Psychedelia / Garage | Riot Season | 1LP Released 20th December 2011 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Acid Mothers Temple Ripper at the Heavens’ Gates of Dark £19.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Riot Season SKU: REPOSELP30 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 20th December 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Please Seeing Stars Psychedelia / Garage | Acme | 180g, 1LP Released 18th November 2014 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Please Seeing Stars £19.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Acme SKU: ADLP1028 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 18th November 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Rose City Band Earth Trip Psychedelia / Garage | Thrill Jockey | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 19th August 2022 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Rose City Band Earth Trip £32.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Thrill Jockey SKU: THRILL540LPY Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 19th August 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ramases Space Hymns Psychedelia / Garage | Tapestry | 180g, 1LP Released 31st March 2011 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ramases Space Hymns £26.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Tapestry SKU: TPT261 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 31st March 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Cellar Doors Cellar Doors Psychedelia / Garage | Hear Here | 1LP Released 22nd February 2019 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Cellar Doors Cellar Doors £16.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Hear Here SKU: HH005LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 22nd February 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kaleidoscope A Beacon From Mars Psychedelia / Garage | Sundazed | 180g, 1LP Released 14th July 2016 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kaleidoscope A Beacon From Mars £28.00 Genre: Psychedelia / Garage Label: Sundazed SKU: LP5247 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 14th July 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Psychedelia / Garage Start again
