Below info From Wikipedia,
Founded in 1973 in the Los Angeles area, Ya Ho Wha 13, otherwise known Yahowha 13 is a psychedelic rock band
fronted by Father Yod, spiritual leader of a religious cult/commune called the Source Family. Ya Ho Wha without the
vowels and spaces reduces to YHWH, the tetragrammaton. The band recorded nine LPs full of their extreme psychedelic
sound with tribal drums and distorted guitars, some of which were completely unrehearsed jam sessions, others which
contained more conventional rock songs.
Members of The Source Family, who lived in the Hollywood Hills in the early 1970s, decided to fuse their musical talents
and spirituality by forming an improvisational, psychedelic music group. They began to press LPs in 1973, most of which
were recorded after hours of meditation at 3:00-6:00 a.m. in a soundproofed garage that served as the musicians’ studio
at the family's communal residence. All of the records with Father Yod’s participation were completely improvised, with no
rehearsals or overdubs. Most of the albums were pressed in small runs of only 500 to 1000 copies on the Higher Key label.
They were sold to the general public in Father Yod’s popular vegetarian Source Restaurant for $10 each. Though only nine
LPs were produced and released, it is rumored that more than 65 albums were recorded by the group but were lost over the
years....Isis Aquarian, who was the family historian, archivist and one of Fathers wives, recently found a lot of these unreleased
music tapes in her archives and they are now being remastered and released through Drag City Records out of Chicago and
their site www.Yahowha.org[1]
The band changed members occasionally, morphing into various incarnations, from Father Yod and the Spirit of ’76 to
Ya Ho Wha 13 to The Savage Sons of Ya Ho Wha, Yodship, and Fire Water Air; but the key players were always the same:
(Djin Aquarian on guitar, Octavious Aquarian on drums, and Sunflower Aquarian on bass) along with other family musicians
Lovely Aquarian, Hom Aquarian, Rhythm Aquarian, Pythias Aquarian, Aquariana Aquarian, Ahom Aquarian, Electron Aquarian.
Father Yod does not appear on all their album releases, but for those on which he participates, he handles lead vocals and
percussion, via a kettle drum. Yahowha 13 was Father Yod's signature band. He said that its music would continue his teaching
(by the words he used) long after he was gone... and it has held true -as the music held a cult underground following all
these years and now the next generation has embraced it.
Former pop star Sky Saxon of The Seeds had joined the Source Family in 1973 and occasionally appeared
on the band's recordings.

To keep the price of international shipping of 1 LP at $15.00 I don’t charge for packaging costs but I need to keep the weight within 1lb. I use professional Lp mailers & in addition I usually use a light but hard foam stiffener. Sometimes I will use 1 piece of cardbord. I take the record out of the jacket if there is a possibility it might split. I don't recall ever having any problems shipping this way. If you would like me to ship differently you must contact me before you pay so I can invoice you for any extras costs.
