DESCRIPTION, as provided by the label: After Mirthrandir, Lift and Easter Island, we continue bringing you the cream of the crop from U.S. Prog Classics, with the reissue of ID’s 1977 album Where Are We Going, originally recorded in late 1975 in New York City. The band seems to have been from Maryland. Alternating between a kraut-isch bass-driven funeral march that might be effortlessly tagged as the precursor of Krautrock from Hell by Electric Orange, and fuzzed-out mayhemic guitar soloing, reminiscent of the best moments from Terry Brooks & Strange’s debut, while intricately interwoven with keyboard work all in technicolor Mellotron and lifted to SFX heaven via echo and delay, this condensed and displaced far cry of existential despair sits comfortably next to psychedelic classics such as C.A Quintet’s Trip Thru Hell and Kimio Mizutani’s Path Through Haze. The highlights of the album are basically built around the track Where Are We Going?, a 30 minute jam that is split between the two sides of the record — and split between intense psychedelic instrumental parts with loose fuzzy guitar soloing and raw groovy parts and delicate, atmospheric Mellotron-led music with dramatic, orchestral like preludes and interludes appearing every now and then throughout the long tracks. Includes a two-page insert and a mini-library list of books and papers on the psychoanalysis of culture with an emphasis on the unconscious that will appear ‘regressively’.
THIS ITEM IS NEW AND UNPLAYED. Used items will include condition details for the cover, disc, inserts, etc.
NOTE TO POTENTIAL BUYERS: If the jacket or disc (unless sealed) is punched, marked, or cut in any manner, denoting a promotional/review copy, I will state that as part of the item description. Also if an issue is a "music club" edition, that will be noted in the item description. (The below information last updated 10/29/24)
If you have any questions or if you have additional information, especially corrections, to the description, please e-mail me. I particularly enjoy when an artist, band member, or someone who has personal background knowledge of a particular album/artist and offers their insight/information of that recording, which I will include with the description for future listings of that release. As a collector of many years, part of the hobby side for me is to learn about the background of the artists and music that I collect. Hopefully, sharing some of this information in my descriptions will help educate and enhance your listening experience.
All LPs are removed from their jackets and placed outside of the jacket for shipping. If an album comes sealed (and will be noted as such in the above description), it will be shipped whole unless you request that I open it up to place the disc outside of the jacket for shipping. Both jacket and disc are placed inside of an outer plastic sleeve before packing for shipping. I use professional corrugated record mailers with inside packing.

MIX: This sometimes appears in my title line and refers to a group's/artist's music having a mix of styles such a rock track with jazz then followed by a straight rock track followed by a psych rock track, etc., as opposed to a blues album with the album's tracks having predominantly one style.

1) Complete your purchase via the shopping cart and request an invoice total,
The shipping amount will reflect the discount price for you to make your payment. This method seems to pose some difficulty in navigating to the request invoice link
2) Purchase and pay the full individual shipping amount and I will automatically refund the shipping discount to you once processed for shipping. (This seems to be the preferred method of my customers)
US customers whose purchase includes CD(s) along with LP(s) will be shipped in a single package via media mail. Purchases of 3 or more CDs or a box-set will ship via media mail.
INTERNATIONAL customers whose purchase includes CD(s) along with LP(s) will be shipped in a single package at the current rate by weight and measurement.
