1969 first pressing of a compelling blend of original psych & rock/funk tracks by a crew of clearly turned-on 'heads’ Their sole LP "YESTERDAYS FOLKS", oft-sampled but never toppled.  Take off, lift off.
Underground band "US '69" blends psych/fuzz/sitar rock with flavors of funk and jazz and the thing is, they mix them together unerringly, impressively. Many collectors expecting to like a song or two off of this obscure LP, discover, upon hearing that many of the songs within are very cool.
Fuzz Guitar and Psych element mixes, sitars that don't sound contrived, and a singer right up there with Box Tops era Alex Chilton... _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

_____________________________________________

From an utterly vast and deep record collection, from my life-long best friend
who was a DJ at the Radio Station I co-founded in the 1970's - and who worked for me at my California record store in the '70s and '80s.
Sadly he has now finally left this mortal coil, bequeathing me his deep Vinyl Mine.
.
Several thousand records (mostly LP's, but also hundreds of 45's), several hundred collectible and Rare, Out of Print CDs and Box Sets, plus posters and other memorabilia will all eventually be listed.

Truly a great (and enormous) collection! _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
