1968 BOSSTOWN SOUND FUZZZZ PSYCH EXPLOSION !!!
The BEACON STREET UNION
The Eyes Of
USA - (yellow) MGM - E 4517- MONO - PROMOTIONAL
SUPER RARE PROMOTIONAL ~~ BEAUTIFUL minty *clean* ORIGINAL 1967 PROMO first pressing VINYL in thick gatefold cover... the label is yellow, unique as a promotional ...and also with the MGM 1967 inner sleeve!
The MONO issue is really hard to find...as a promotional only issue.... completely different song mixes and a BOLD punch ((mono)) sound production....
The Beacon Street Union were part of the "Bosstown Sound". The scene was cool enough but shouldn't of tried to be the answer to reaction the San Fransisco rock explosion. The Bosstown could in no way compete with the Bay area. The Beacon Street Union released two good experimental psych/hard rock albums during the late 60’s. They were one of the best amongst a desperate bunch which included the Ultimate Spinach, Eden’s Children, Puff and Orpheus.
The Bosstown Sound was not a waste as it did produce a few legends plus other decent acts such as Earth Opera (which included a young David Grisman and the Rowen Brothers), Listening and Phluph. "The Eyes Of The Beacon Street Union" was the band’s first album released in 1968 on the MGM label. Most of the songs were written by John Lincoln Wright (vocals) and Wayne Ulaky (bass). The album opens with an introduction by Tom Wilson which explodes into the records first song, My Love Is. My Love Is was an excellent way to open up the band’s debut, as it was full of crashing Who-like drums and energy, strong harmonies, cool lead vocals and a ripping psych guitar solo. Of the albums 11 songs, there are three so-so songs which include two covers (Beautiful Delilah and Sportin’ Life) and a pointless jugband tune titled "Four Hundred And Five". The rest of the album is pretty outstanding, hard hitting garage psychedelia, full of highlights like the very trippy, percussion oriented Mystic Morning. Also, there's Blue Avenue (with some great heavy riffs), the anti drug anthem Speed Kills and Green Destroys The Gold were full on psych assaults with guitar freakouts and a strong sense of urgency (Sadie Said No is more of the same). The feast of killer bad trips alone are worth the price of admission. Other compositions such as South End Incident/I’m Afraid and The Prophet are still strong with lots of drug inspired dimentia. "The Eyes of..." was a powerful debut that showed a band that took chances and fired on all cylinders.
