ORIGINAL 1969 FIRST PRESS "HEAVY" PSYCHEDELIC UNDERGROUND
..
~ SANDY COAST ~
FROM THE STEREO WORKSHOP
HOLLAND - RELAX RECORDS - 31.361
....Plays clean with dynamic wide range sterophonic sound ...
RARE AND SOUGHT (for good reason) ... 1969 first press on the "Relax" label, same label as the revered "Outsiders" kings of the rave-up beat-rocker scene... Sandy Coast were highly rated as well having skilled song writers employed within underground rock confines, meaning no commercial potential even though their crafty melodic efforts rate equal to any top of the pops chart busters.
SANDY COAST ... Still pretty much an unknown/underestimated & very difficult to find album -- the second 1968 SANDY COAST album "From The Stereo Workshop" is an amazing epic, seemingly fusing strong infectious & powerful tracks intertwined with blues with heavy psychedelic rock. Their are no weak tracks, rather a powerful display of self penned material brimming with the 'right' sound, catchy melodics, dynamic Hammond organ / tasteful guitar passages enhance this decidedly, delightfully trippy set.
The one cover displayed includes an outstanding take on the Animals "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" which may in fact surpass the Animals version - crafted by an entirely different heartfelt arrangement. Original material such as "Depression" - "Capital Punishment (Death By Hanging)" and others contain dark moody tones amid ultra-catchy melodies, bubbling organ swells, echo guitar wafting in the mixes ...If you like the whole 60's psyche scene - don't miss this true gem!
Having formed in Voorburg, Holland in 1961, Sandy Coast released numerous singles & and three essential albums over the ensuing years. Towards the end of the decade, they started to become more experimental, and this rare album from 1969 finds them adding psychedelic and progressive edges to their sound
Depression
Capital Punishment (Death By Hanging)
Turning Round The Pedals Of Our Tandem Which Is Made For Two
My Friend Abdullah
My Empty World
From The Workshop
Letter From The One I Love

Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood
Innocent Girl
CONDITION: The cover: Very fragile paper-thin cover, rated: VG(+), lucky to find this decent, there is light handling crinkles around the edges, light partial ring wear beginning (not near bad), otherwise decently strong front cover. The back cover generally more clean but has thin strips of discoloration at top and bottom near seam, while main back cover is clean. As hard as the record is to come by and as wear-prone as the ultra-fragile cover is, hard pressed to find a better copy(?) ... still has strong colors, no delete marks, no split seams, and no writing ... VERY collection worthy appearance ...
The vinyl: Rated: "EX" (excellent) ...will play very enjoyable ...handled with care over the past 47 years ... both Dutch Relax labels are clean
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
