Description
AN OBSCURE PSYCHEDELIC BAND BASED IN OREGON, “AFTERGLOW” RELEASED ONLY ONE ALBUM IN 1968 BEFORE VANISHING. THE LONE, EPONYMOUS RELEASE WAS SORT OF LIKE A SAMPLER OF AMERICAN PSYCHEDELIC STYLES, FEATURING SONGS THAT RECALLED NOT ONLY THE DOORS AND JEFFERSON AIRPLANE, BUT ALSO THE BYRDS, DONOVAN, AND TRIPPY GARAGE- PSYCHEDELIC BANDS LIKE THE STRAWBERRY ALARM CLOCK.THEY BEGAN RECORDING WITH PRODUCER LEO LUKLA AT HIS GOLDEN STATE RECORDERS STUDIO, BUT DUE TO THEIR STUDIES, THEY WERE UNABLE TO COMPLETE AN ALBUM UNTIL LATE 1967; THE RESULTING EPONYMOUS RECORD APPEARED EARLY THE FOLLOWING YEAR ON “MTA RECORDS”. “AFTERGLOW” WAS IGNORED AT THE TIME AND THE GROUP BROKE UP SHORTLY AFTERWARD, BUT THE RECORD BECAME A FAVORITE OF PSYCHEDELIC COLLECTORS –––– IT’S NOT TOO LATE TO DISCOVER THIS GREAT BAND WITH HERE OFFERED A SUPERB, ORIGINAL 1968 PRESSING IN LOVELY SHAPE. THE COVER, WITH PUNCH HOLE, IS HOUSED IN FACTORY SHRINK WRAP WHILE THE GLOSSY VINYL RECORD LOOKS IN STRONG, HARDLY PLAYED CONDITION.
