“cold sun from austin, texas was recorded in 1970 in the legendary sonobeat studios, where the mariani and johnny winter first lps were produced. the cold sun band are considered contemporaries of velvet underground and the fugs, often listed as being in a similar vein but inspirations for this unique piece actually go back to the desperate, haunted joe meek. all songs lyrically express dark, mystic poetry with the true ’60s psychedelic floating/distorted fuzz spirit presented in short compact mini-epics along with several mind blowing long tunes, such as ‘ra-ma’ (11 min.), ‘here in the year’ (9 min.) and ‘fall’ (7 min.). discovered by rockadelic records of dallas, texas in 1991, the dark shadows album saw the light of day the next year as a limited lp version, to become today one of the most important and revered us psychedelic underground albums from the early ’70s. rockadelic heard it in the form of an old scratchy acetate that one of the cold sun band members had made in order to be able to play the recording at friends` parties on their turntables. the acetate only contained 2/3 of the songs but so greatly impressed them that rockadelic managed together with bandleader bill miller to release the complete sessions from master tapes. autoharp wizard miller eventually spearheaded roky erickson’s international debut as the cold sun band joined forces with roky in 1974 and became bliebalien, later evolved into the aliens and backed roky on his famous albums and historical concerts. carefully remastered from the master tapes, this album will bring new rewarding listening experiences in expanded fidelity. plus a bonus 10inch with 2 unreleased non-album songs, authentic live/concert recordings of ‘live again’ (10 min.) and ‘mind aura’ (7 min.). the fidelity of these reel to reel live recordings is also remarkable. includes an extended booklet insert with liner notes by jello biafra plus rare photos and other surprises. according to patrick (lama) lundborg from lysergia.com: ‘best rockadelic lp ever, and in my opinion the best texas lp of the time.’ enjoy this one-hour psychedelic happening, a ‘must-have’ ’60s/’70s heavy uber-psych masterpiece!”
