Electronic psych wizardry from one of the early pioneers
of electronic sounds and early synthesizers
here?s an excerpt from the psych reference by Vernon Joynson
"Fuzz Acid & Flowers" on Mort Garson?s LPs:
Mort Garson was one of the first specialists of electronic sounds and early synthesizers
~his better known project is the Zodiac Cosmic Sounds and he also recorded as Lucifer.
Among the records released under his name, the Wozard Of Iz from 1970 is a strange
electronic version of "Wizard Of Oz" with weird lyrics. The album was produced by
Bernie Krause and the partner of Lee Hazelwood, Suzie Jane Hokum, was Dorothy. Not
recommended for young kids! After that came a series of twelve albums "dramatically
narrated with electronic music accompaniment". There should have been one for every
zodiac sign, but it's unsure if the twelve were actually recorded and released. The ones who
are known to exist are Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. Housed in very colored sleeves, they were
produced by Allen Stanton (Brewer and Shipley, Byrds), with scripts written by
Jacques Wilson and electronic musical score composed and realized by Garson.
The narrators included Nancy Priddy, Joh Erwin and Michael Bell. Overall it's in the same
style as the Zodiac Cosmic Sounds but with more spoken passages. Circa 1973, Garson
recorded Plantasia, an album of music to help the green plants to grow...
He would later be seen like a "New Age" pioneer.
