Our Generation - Dawning of the Day Ultra Rare Xian Garage Psych record out of upstate NY. Never comes up for sale. Inclues a lyrics sheet. Lable: No Lable No serial number 1971 Cover: VG+ Record: VG+
Here’s Xian expert Ken Scott to tell more about it: What do you get when you combine the heavy fuzz guitar of Azitis and the joyous male/female harmonies of The Bridge? You get a humongous garage/psych monster by the name of Our Generation. This Nyack, New York outfit’s debut is easily one of the top Jesus psych privates. Opens with the hard-driving rocker “11th Hour”, followed by the chilling downer minor-key “Near The End” with heavy droning distorted fuzz, eerie vocals and lyrics dealing with death and despair. “Love” provides some animated ‘60’s garage-rockin’ fun with a bratty abrasive fuzz riff that sounds like it came straight out of the Rhino Nuggets boxed set. Lots of dynamic organ throughout, as on the high-energy “Look – Out” (which again hits us with another venomous explosion of fuzz), “Jesus In Your Life” (coupled with nice wah-wah electric guitar) and “Can You Make It?” with its dissonant spoken-word psychedelic intro. Even the quieter melodic tracks like “Beyond Yourself” and “I Can See Forever” definitely have that sought-after tripped-out edge. The title track closes out the lp with a slow dreamy mysterious psych mood. All original songs and every single one is a winner, with creative vocal arrangements and sincere Jesus-centered lyrics. Faint yellow-on-white cover art with hills, sunflower and chain of figures holding hands. Raise your hands and worship at high volume. Awesome!
Notes: Corner dings on the bottom corners, with a 5inch seem split in the middle of the bottom seem. Record has some paper scuffs, I found one or two light scratches. I also noticed some odd light blemishes on the edge of the record. The record plays with minimal background noise and seems to be a solid pressing.
