We All Together Volume 1 - LPN2422 Very Rare Original Peruvian First Press Mag Black label - Superb!!
You won't find many original first presses like this around (later second presses were issued on yellow MAG labels)
This is an absolute must for any collector of Peruvian Psych or beatles influenced music - every tune is a winner!
We All Together’s first album came out in 1972. The band hailed from Peru and had roots in Laghonia, who themselves released two good late 60?s psychedelic albums. The music is written and sung in English and has a strong late 60?s Beatles influence.
The original compositions are what make this album worth owning. Hey Revolution sounds like a White Album era outtake with Lennonesque vocals and hard blues guitar riffs. The same goes for Dear Sally which is also characterized by some angry vocals and pounding piano that recall Lennon’s first proper solo album, Plastic Ono Band. This really hints at how tight a grip the Beatle’s influence was on musicians throughout the world (keep in mind the Beatles were falling apart at this juncture). It’s A Sin To Go Away is the most popular song on this album due to it’s inclusion on the Nuggets compilation. This South American psychedelic classic begins with Procol Harum style organ then procedes with thick fuzz guitar riffs, backward and phased guitar solos and helium high vocals.
Original Peruvian pressings are notoriously variable in quality- however, this one should not dissapoint... I am not exagerating when I say that this is Really thick weighty vinyl. There are a few light marks and scratches, but nothing that cause any problems and aside from some low level surface here and there due to the pressing only, the music is bold, punchy and clear with very little to distract from the listening pleasure. No hiss or jumps etc, will grade at vg++ at least.
Fragile front laminated cover is in great condtion, no tears, bends, rips or holes. Tiny bit of corner wear (nothing alarming) lamination a little mottled and some ringwear evident on the back - A very tight and solid cover, grades a confident vg++
Definately a keeper copy!
