THE FEDERAL DUCK s/t TOP! 1968 Pop Psych~Soft Psych Fuzz lp M-
1968/Canada/Columbia Records MS-3162…..here’s a rare original Canadian pressing of this great pop psych lp. The cover is in nice condition with corner and spotty seam wear, there is a 2” top left seam split and there is some paper gone near the corner, also small amount of paper gone at the top of the spine, there is a ½” top seam split at the opening, very light shelf/ring wear, small light lower right corner crease, otherwise the cover is solid and clean with no delete. The vinyl is in Excellent condition with only a handful of super light inaudible hairlines and some light storage staining from the inner sleeve. The record plays clean with only very slight occasional low level noise. Don’t miss this clean pop psych lp! Please check my auctions for other rock and psych lp’s. Good luck and thanks for looking!
The Federal Duck is a consistently good album which is mildly jazzy, has some fine bass and an ever present darkish vibe. There are a few upbeat mold-breaking songs (one even sounds like the Holy Modal Rounders) but generally a soft-psych feel pervades throughout. It is interesting to speculate as to how Federal Duck ended up on the Musicor label, whose other acts included far more illustrious artists such as Gene Pitney, The Platters and George Jones, but also released The Paper Garden, Rebecca and the Sunnybrook Farmers, however the relationship was destined to last for just the one album, with Stavis departing soon after to form the Californian communal rock band Oganookie and then to record an eponymous album for Vanguard. Although there really isn’t that much information about Federal Duck out there, the general consensus is that this is an album that deserves greater recognition than it has hitherto received....
