Description
This obscenely rare album, by the acid-dropping 50s era Vegas-crooner Arcesia who went to California in the late 60s to make a psych album, was released in microquantity in 1968 and is today almost impossible to find. An original copy would definitely sell in the thousands of dollars if you were to find one. The music has been described as a stoned Elvis backed by the Doors. Or like Del Shannon’s Charles Westover album with Father Yod on vocals. It is for sure unlike everything else, but also a very cool psychedelic artefact. And a big fave for some.
This edition is a very limited edition of 400 numbered copies. This very copy is obviously a very low number (see scan). Released in 1996, and sold out immediately on release, on the highly acclaimed Little Indians label from Germany (later to become Shadoks), known for the high production quality of its releases. This comes on heavy (200 gram) vinyl and housed in a massively thick and beautiful cover. This copy is opened but unplayed. It came with a very small split seem on the top. Vinyl is stone mint!
