Description
ARCESIA - REACHIN
ORIGINAL PRESS
Amazing LP wherein a formerly famous big band singer goes loungedelic; the charm of the LP being in the odd juxtaposition of late 60s SoCal Doors influenced pop/rock styling with heavy organ and (often) wild guitar (at times with use of fuzz) backing the seemingly stream of consciousness lyrics belted out in his big band crooner style.
Described by The Lama in the Acid Archives as "imagining Del Shannon's Charles Westover LP with Father Yod on vocals and you're halfway there". Even that is only halfway there.
Original copies can be counted on one's fingers with a couple to spare. Reissued twice (each time with the side order reversed), with even those not easy to find these days, an original is nearly impossible. Nearly, I say, because here's one right here.
So as you can see cover is worked on both sides.
Disc appeared un-played and NM before I vacuumed with VPI and listened for any flaws. There are none - perfect playback with minimal noise if any.
IN A PIECE OF TRIVIA THIS COPY BELONGED TO THE LATE GREAT JOHNNY PEREZ OF THE SIR DOUGLAS QUINTET FAME.
R.I.P JOHNNY!
So if you're looking for a near perfect disc and don't have $1600 to shell out for a perfect jacket this is your record. Do not sleep on this -it will not last at this price and it's been over a year since a copy was offered at all. If you need files recorded of particular segments or songs reach out to us we'd be glad to record and send.
Amazing Rarity.
