Description

🎵 THE END – “PROJECT BLUE” b/w “OUT OF MY HANDS”


Original Seascape Records SS-501 • Rare Indiana Garage / Psych Rock 45


🔥 A superb example of late-1960s Midwestern garage rock transitioning into psychedelia. As the raw energy of early garage bands evolved, many regional groups began experimenting with heavier guitars, darker songwriting, and psychedelic influences. The End captured that changing sound on this scarce Seascape Records release, making it an outstanding addition to any serious collection of obscure American rock.


Pressed by the small Seascape Records label of LaPorte, Indiana, this original 45 is exactly the kind of independent release that collectors spend years searching for. Produced in limited numbers and distributed locally, surviving originals have become increasingly difficult to locate more than fifty years later.



⭐ Why Collectors Want It


✅ Original Seascape Records SS-501 pressing


✅ Scarce Indiana regional garage/psych rock release


✅ Small independent Midwest label


✅ Powerful late-’60s garage sound with psychedelic influences


✅ Highly desirable for collectors of regional rock, private pressings, and obscure independent labels


✅ An authentic piece of Midwestern rock history



💿 Condition


The vinyl retains a nice original gloss with visible light-to-moderate surface wear from age and use. Labels show handling wear along with pieces of tape covering portions of the label text, as shown in the photographs. Matrix information remains visible in the dead wax.


Overall, this is an honest vintage copy of a very difficult regional 45.


🎧 Please examine all photographs carefully, as they are an important part of the description. If an audio sample is included, I encourage buyers to judge playback for themselves, as vintage records often play considerably better than their visual appearance suggests.



🎶 A Piece of Midwest Garage Rock History


Long before independent music became commonplace, bands like The End were recording original music in local studios and releasing it on tiny regional labels with little more than determination and ambition. Most of these records never traveled far beyond their hometowns, making surviving originals genuine time capsules of the American garage rock movement.


Today, records like this are prized not only for their rarity but for their authenticity—raw performances, limited pressings, and the unmistakable sound of young musicians chasing something bigger than their local scene. Whether your interests lean toward garage rock, psychedelic rock, private pressings, or obscure Midwestern labels, this is the kind of record that belongs in a serious collection.
