Wilburn Burchette

Music of The Godhead

Very Rare original US Private LP released on Burchette Brothers Records in 1975. 1st US pressing. Complete with 2 A4 inserts.

Limited essentially to what is already public via internet searches and yellowed  magazine ads and articles, we can say a few things about Wil, as he is—or at one  time was—known to friends. Wil made albums of guitar and synthesizer music  between the years 1971 and 1977, mostly under his Burchette Brothers label (run  jointly with his brother Kenneth, who is, or was, a chemist), which may have  been second only to Steven Halpern’s various labels as the most successful of  the early new age self-publishers, selling thousands of copies of a total of  seven LPs and a 45 through classified ads in the backs of magazines like Beyond  Reality, Gnostica News, and of course, High Times.

Wilburn was a largely self-taught guitarist and self-taught mystic, whose  fascination with the occult began around the age of twelve. He calls his music “Impro,”  seeking to play not music but emotions, harkening back to a pre-verbal age. In  Burchette’s construction, language is somewhat mundane as compared to the  communicative capabilities of music.
