Description
This is it The holy grail of psych records This is absolutely perfect shape other than the name written on side two. This plays through without so much as a click or pop. We ultrasonic cleaned it as well so rest assured it is going to be sublime sounding. The sleeve has a small bit of ringwear and a couple small creases at the top but no splitting whatsoever. We have included a picture of the album on the turntable, when we went to play it after cleaning it did not fit on the spindle suggesting that it may have never been played. If it has definitely not more than once or twice before we enjoyed it. We played it once to assure the quality and because why wouldn't we :) Look closely at the pictures and you will see it resting on the spindle.

From Wikipedia
The Deep was a short-lived American psychedelic rock band made up of musicians from New York City, who in 1966 traveled to Philadelphia to record a one-time LP, Psychedelic Moods: A Mind-Expanding Phenomena. The band was experimentally progressive, as they were one of the earliest groups to record psychedelic music, before it was adapted by a wider array of musical acts. Although their only album failed to achieve success, it later gained acclaim for being considered the earliest work to reference "psychedelic" in its title.
Information on the band is sparse as only one band member had a confirmed musical career prior to recording. The member, Rusty Evans (born Marcus Uzilevsky, 1937, New York City, died December 5, 2015, Woodacre, California), was the Deep's lead guitarist, primary songwriter, and a vocalist. Evans initially recorded in 1958 as a rockabilly singer, before performing as a Greenwich Village folk musician in the late 1950s and early 1960s. He recorded three albums as Rusty Evans – Songs of Our Land, Railroad Songs (both 1964) and Live at Gerde's Folk City (1965) – and was later a member of the folk group The New Christy Minstrels. Musician David Bromberg is also known to have played on The Deep's one and only album, although it is unknown on which tracks he played.
In the early summer of 1966, Evans convinced producer Mark Barkan to help him record a psychedelic album. They secured arrangements with the Philadelphia-based Cameo-Parkway label, the home for fellow protopunk act Question Mark and the Mysterians, for a meager budget of $1200. In August, Evans and Barkan assembled a group of New York musicians to record as the Deep, and they drove in a rundown car to Philadelphia to record what would become the Psychedelic Moods album, which was done in the short period of four days and would necessitate late-night sessions in order to be finished on time. The all-night sessions in August produced not only mind-expanding stream of consciousness ramblings such as "Color Dreams," and "Pink Ether," but also provided the musicians, who were unable to afford a hotel, with a place to sleep, and for one band member in particular, the opportunity to engage in intimate activities with his girlfriend behind an acoustic partition while the tapes were rolling during "When Rain is Black."
While the exact release date of the album has yet to be definitively established, the record is generally considered to have been distributed in October 1966, based on the album's catalogue number. This would credit it as the first official album to include the word "psychedelic" in its title, pre-dating the Blues Magoos' debut, Psychedelic Lollipop , and the The 13th Floor Elevators' eponymous album. The Deep's Psychedelic Moods did not sell well, and the group did not tour to support it. They existed as a studio-only band, and, aside from sessions for their album, produced no other recordings under that name.
