***NICE BATCH OF PRIVATE PRESS & LOCAL LABEL PSYCH, GARAGE, XIAN, FOLK, ETC. THIS WEEK…

ARTIST : VARIOUS ARTISTS

TITLE : THE MUSIC OF THE SANTA CRUZ MOUNTAINS

LABEL & CATALOG NUMBER : SANTA CRUZ MOUNTAINS / NO NUMBER

FORMAT : LP

COVER CONDITION : VG+ general wear mostly at seams, tiny clear tape top seam, signed by kai moore front, with booklet insert.

VINYL CONDITION : EX super clean, barely play, one tiny pressing flaw in the last track that makes a little noise.

NOTES : original '73 private press features tracks from four local santa cruz musicians : J.J. JOHNSON, BAHIA, BRUCE FRYE, and KAI MOORE. great overall listen with a nice mix of rural psych rock & ssw folkrock with some lovely female vocals. its a cool album on its own for sure but the most interesting thing about it to me is the connection to EDDIE CALLAHAN. the track 'santa cruz mountains' here sung & credited to J.J. JOHNSON is the same song on EDDIE CALLAHAN's amazing 'FALSE EGO' album, though with a different sound & some reworked lyrics. BOB BERRY is also all over this record, and he also played quite a bit on 'FALSE EGO' as well as releasing a mega rare solo album 'HEAVY BERRY'… and even beyond that much of this material also turned up on the JOHNNY KITCHEN / VICTIM OF CHANCE album 'GOIN' HOME BLUE'… would love to know the full twisted story here… anyone??
