ALERT! PSYCHE CLASSIC! THE DEFINING MOMENT OF US PSYCHEDELIA! UK ORIGINAL!
From The Mojo Collection: Taut, psychedelicised R&B (‘Flying High’, ‘Love’) and waltz-time craziness (‘Porpoise Mouth’, ‘The Masked Marauder’), were complemented by some extraordinary acid-rock excursions (‘Bass Strings’, ‘Section 43’ and ‘Grace’), where Melton’s highly-strung guitar, Cohen’s asthmatic Farfisa and Joe’s stoner vocals detonated over dreamlike, mock-Eastern rhythms. There was satire here too (‘Superbird’, ‘Flying High’), but essentially Electric Music was about the politics of mind-altering drugs.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITH A CRACKLE THAT OBTRUDES ON THE RUN-IN & GROOVES BETWEEN TRACKS ON SIDE 1, AND ACTIVELY MARS THE QUIET BITS ON SIDE 2. OTHERWISE SPLENDID AUDIO – BUT WITH CRACKLE.
Genuine original UK Stereo issue - STFL 6081. VG+ non-laminated, flipback cover with minor wear and minor ringwear. Previous owner’s name on top right of back cover (see picture).
