International Artists put out a Live LP c. August 1968, which was old demo tapes and outtakes dating back to 1966 for the most part, with some phony applause added. Around this time, the original 13th Floor Elevators disbanded, as the original nucleus of Erickson-Hall-Sutherland had been reduced to guitarist Stacy Sutherland only. Sutherland brought some of his own songs for a final set of studio sessions which led to the dark, intense posthumous album Bull of the Woods. Initially disliked by many Elevators fans, it has found a substantial fan-base today, with some even rating it the band's best LP. These final sessions consisted of Sutherland on guitar, Ronnie Leatherman on bass, and Danny Thomas on drums. A few live gigs were played around Texas during the second half of 1968, until an 'obituary' in Rolling Stone magazine in December 1968 declared the band gone. International Artists pulled together the various studio recordings from 1968 and with the assistance of drummer Danny Thomas added some horn arrangements, which became the Bull of the Woods album, released c. March 1969. The very last 13th Floor Elevators record released by International Artists was a reissue of the "You're Gonna Miss Me" 45, dating from c. mid-1969.
What To Expect Vinyl :EXCELLENT PLUS (E+) or a strong 7/8 on a 1 to 10 scale.If you look at this record with a 100 watt bulb and a pair of reading glasses as I do you will see a few surface marks..Although there is noting serious I have played the record completely through and is very enjoyable Some would call this one Near Mint its not a 9 or 10 but a strong 7 to 8.
What To Expect Cover NEAR MINT (NM) or an 8/9 on a 1 to10 scale.It actually had the original shrink wrap on it lose I pulled off. The only problem with this is the original owner has written his initials BE top right corner other than this its perfect New condition.micro corner ding bottom left. (View Photos)
