Description
This is a fine original U.S. pressing copy of the second LP by garage/psychedelic/hard rock group the Amboy Dukes, released in 1968. The group was based in Detroit, and is best remembered today for having Ted Nugent on lead guitar. Their sophomore effort's title track was a hit single. All its tracks were original compositions, and the songs on side 2, mostly credited to guitarist Steve Farmer, are knit together into a suite or "story" (per the liner notes), seemingly on the then-timely topic of journeying to the center of one's mind. The single starts it off in any event. Also included in this suite is a track with one of my all-time favorite psych song titles, "Why Is a Carrot More Orange Than an Orange?" Why indeed? The jacket has wear on and light splitting in the seams, a sticker stain on the front cover, and light staining on the back cover (EX). The disc has some light dings, scrapes, and scuffs, and plays with some light surface noise and a stray light pop (EX-).
I am in the process of selling off a large personal collection amassed over two decades. All discs have been stored in plastic lined inner sleeves separate from their jackets. The jackets have been stored in plastic sleeves. I have play graded (spot checked) discs except where otherwise noted.
If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
