MINT CLEAN ... TOP FINAL COLLECTION COPY

 LISTEN: click next line to HEAR: The Unicorn "At The Coffeehouse Lounge" Goddess 1967

This is a VERY very limited edition ...reported by pressing source to have been issued in micro issue of only 50 copies ... Advised that Ultimate Spinach leader Ian Bruce-Douglas was involved in the project, that's unconfirmed by Mr Bruce-Douglas, but was reportedly the source of the soundboard tape ... Either way, the album (group going under the title "THE UNICORN") remains a killer document of the ULTIMATE SPINACH just months before their first album, with original line-up in full thrilling form featuring garage-rock, folk rock and mind-blowing psychedelic grooves ...The recordings do sound like the Ultimate Spinach in their embryonic stage; music in that they retain more of a garage sound than on any of their three MGM Records releases that followed ... Fans of the Ultimate Spinach will certainly enjoy this early version of the band with the cool farfisa organ led garage-psych attitude, distorted guitars, hippie female/male vocal blends and of course their signature tripped-out lyrics. The highlights are early works in progress of killer Ultimate Spinach tunes that wold appear in defferent versions on their first and second albums, with feature track a acid drenched 12+ minute adventure in "MIND GARDENS" then under the working title of "RUSH" as well s a killer 6+ minute version of "HIP DEATH GODESS" ...elsewhere, "Follow Me" retains pleasant innocent vibes, and infectious melody - a slice of the free style hippie philosophies...while "HEY JOE" is very un-Spinach like, a nugget straight from thew garage...

Ian Bruce-Douglas had this to say about the UNICORN / Ultimate Spinach crew: "I am 90% sure about the timing of the event (was 1967) although I can't be more specific than "Summer of '67". Actually, it might have been the Spring! Why? This all happened in between my band becoming the house-band at 'The Unicorn Coffeehouse' in Boston...or just before...and our starting to record our first album, which wouldn't happen until September of '67."
