Can Am des Puig
Book of AM
Their initial plan was to release four LP’s in combination with a beautifully illustrated book, full of mind expanding art, focussing on world folklore and various traditions.In the end however(we’re talking mid 70’s here) the costs of realisation were too high, and –though the music for all 4 records already was put to tape- theeventual release got stripped down to ‘just’ one LP, coming with a gatefold sleeve i.s.o. the complete book. Which obviously didn’t keep thisunbelievable album from becoming a major collector’s idem. Now, some 30 years later, Wah Wah Records at last present the book (over 100 pages!) in its full glory, together with 2 LP’s. (A reissue of the original LP, plus a record/disc featuring many highlights of theunreleased material.)
Musically this is superb, extremely psychedelic and mystic folk with haunting melodies full of exotic instrumentationand trippy elements. This 2006 Book Of Am edition is a (soaking wet) dream come true for all connoisseurs of acid-, psych- and freakfolk.
