CLEAN ORIGINAL
FORT MUDGE MEMORIAL DUMP
\ USA -Mercury Records SR 61256
NICE upgrade M- vinyl...sought & essential psychedelic gem...
Rare and wanted...1969 original first pressing on the old RED Mercury label in the old style unipak gatefold jacket...it's a highly talented obscure underground psych band with Jefferson Airplane styles...female & male vocals, cool self compositions and the hippie thing going....seen this around going for big $ ... it's got the sound...
Fort Mudge Memorial Dump was a band from Walpole, Massachusetts, that started playing by 1969, gathering a good number of fans. They got filed into the “Boston Sound”, among the Ultimate Spinach, the Beacon Street Union, Orpheus, Tangerine Zoo, etc.
With good technique and better ideas, they recorded a very sought-after LP for Mercury in which the voice of Caroline Stratton stands out to some Jefferson Airplane affinity.
Guitarist Dean Keady, with his complex effects, leads the band.
Despite its east coast origins, the band is firmly rooted in San Francisco acid-soaked psychedelia. The revelation here is Stratton, whose powerhouse vocals are reminiscent of the Jefferson Airplane’s Grace Slick.
All the material was written by the band. Mr. Man and Crystal Forms both portray Stratton's vocals favourably and include stong guitar work. Others, such as Actions Of A Man and What Good Is Spring? find Caroline and the band in a flowing mood that offsets the acidrock tunes quite nicely....
