RARE 1969 ORIGINAL ELECTRIFIED FOLK/PSYCH
MILKWOOD TAPESTRY
\ USA - METROMEDIA - MD 1007
Original 1969 first pressing vinyl ...one of the good ones on the sought after and legendary METROMEDIA label who brought you the CHRISTOPHER album...
MILKWOOD TAPESTRY is a great 1969 album by New York underground 'heads'. This self-titled 1969 album is a psychedelic journey featuring searing acid guitar, soft folky ballads, fantastic harmonies, lots of heavy rock & some mind-bending manic music that ranges in style from The Incredible String Band to Sgt. Peppers to Arthur Lee's Love to Fairport Convention! This was their one and only release, complete with its flourishes of medieval minstrel hippie instrumentation and Elizabeth era Baroque lyricism, all adding to a patina of guilessness, rustic charm, and a certain childlike whimsy. Sometimes the muisc takes a hader edge with psychedelic overtones, fuzz guitar solos, acidic ebbs and flows, dark turns of melody, and wildly manic vocals from Ransohoff. At least half the original album is quite hard-hitting, even quite-yet-psychedelic, with sharp fuzz guitar solos, acidic ebbs and flows, dark turns of melody, and wildly manic vocals from Ransohoff. "Beyond the Twelve Mile Zone" and "Signs of the Invisible Chalk" are prime examples, rising to and then retreating from electric crescendos before frantically bubbling again just before dramatic halts. "Journey-Less Ride" is also an excursion into exceedingly trippy territory, while "The Window Sill's Song" is positively Left Banke-caliber in its stateliness. The rest has a certain heady, swirling quality that makes consistently wonderful listening.

CONDITION: The Cover: thick gatefold cover is dark and after 40+ years about impossible to find without shelf wear, which this copy has, but only lightly, rated VG+(+) there are no split seams, no bends, no writing. The gatefold almost squeeks when opened which means it has not been 'used' much ...
The Vinyl: all clean and glossy smooth over both sides rated pretty much near M- and playing top level...makes for a great upgrade or first time score...the labels are both clean.
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
