ORGAN GRINDERS
OUT OF THE EGG
USA - Mercury Records - SR 61282
RARE and sought after 1969 Baltimore flowerpop-psych grooves in self compositions that really latch on with each play... until you're hooked.
Contains a suitably WILD large foldout photos, lyrics insert that folds out from the middle (check above photos)... Hard to find complete, just as first issued ovder 40 years ago
This is late sixties popsike with flutes, fuzz guitars, trippy lyrics, a mix of soft and loud. The songwriting is reasonably creative but they don't create much of an identity here. Creepy album cover to be filed with "After All". This is one of those albums that is unknown and underrated.
A record considered by many collectors as the best obscure album Mercury released along with Wizards From Kansas. If you look at the insert before playing this you will know that this is an early melding of arty psych and electronic instruments and effects. While many of these early experiments (Silver Apples, Tontos Head Band, etc) delve into noise and abrasive pretentiousness the Organ Grinders are very trippy and very melodic. The vocals are a strong point, nicely harmonized and very psychedelic. The instrumentation is clever and well executed, while the songs are downright brilliant. "8th Day In Heaven" is one of many standouts with jaw dropping time changes and this could easily be filed under "progressive psych." A bit of a Left Banke/Orange Colored Sky vibe is very evident, making for a melodic psych treat. Every track is a winner and this is, if truth be told, one of our collectors favourite American albums with a strong Anglophile vibe too.
