1969 AMERICAN HIPPIE PSYCH GEM ala Jefferson Airplane
TOP COPY
GENESIS
In The Beginning
USA - (red) Mercury Records - SR 61175
FINAL COLLECTION COPY !!!
SCARCE original 1969 first pressing of strong American rock psychedelia with female vocals, recommended to fans of the San Francisco sixties Jefferson Airplane sound. Not anything like the UK progressive Genesis, but rather a highly rated solid album which features cool memorable self compositions, the groovy hippie vibe and warm acid laced female voice...
1968's "In the Beginning" is nothing less than great. as noted above, the album bares a comparison to the Jefferson Airplane, though without the Airplane's penchant for needless filler. Musically the set offers up a mixture of hard rock (the opener 'Angelina'), folk-rock ('Gloomy Sunday') and California-styled mid-1960s' psych (the fuzz guitar drenched 'What's It All About'). As exemplified by a nice cover of Leonard Cohen's 'Suzanne', Richman and Ttanna had great voices that blended well and were effortlessly capable of handling the album's different genres. Highlights include - Henry's meltdown performance on the extended (16+ mins) closer 'World without You'.
Following the album's release, Rivera was drafted. He was quickly replaced by Jimmy Chappell. Unfortunately the album did little commercially and within a couple of months the band had called it quits. In the wake of the band's breakup Henry played with Charity and was a member of a late-inning Steppenwolf lineup. Following his military service Rivera hooked up with Delaney Bramblett, while Richman briefly sang with The Thieves.
The album's increasingly difficult to find. I

II

CONDITION: The cover: the grainy cover is solid, rated: M- has bright original colors. As you can see n the photo there is a small delete drill at top right...anyone looking for the album would NOT put it down, for it is extremely clean with a 'new-ness' even though it's 46 years old! ... No split seams, no writing, no bends...a nice collectible psychedelic '60s "rarity"
The vinyl: all glossy over both sides, rated: M- plays very bright and vibrantly clear with no alarming problems...clean labels too...
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
