CHRISTOPHER 's/t' LP (Spain, Out-Sider, Catalogue #OSR082) Brand new/unplayed copy of limited year 2020 Out-Sider label LP edition of RARE 1970 Metromedia label Psych Rock album Texas band Christopher. The mid-period Airplane, Cream and Wizards From Kansas comparisons are apt. One of the greatest "dawn of the seventies" American heavy underground rock album titles and long a legendary and highly coveted score for those genre fanatics lucky enough to ever stumble across a well cared for and preserved original. The used record store bins aren't exactly flush (to say the least) with Metromedia label originals (and if your local wax emporium is wise, near mint copies are going "on the wall" with a mid-three figures number attached to it.) This new (and limited... don't sleep, folks) Out-Sider label edition is a welcome arrival. Highly recommended!

Out-Sider present a reissue of Christopher's self-titled album, originally released in 1970. The only fully-authorized vinyl reissue of Christopher in the current market. Christopher were an underground acid rock trio featuring future Josefus drummer, Doug Tull. They evolved from United Gas, a psychedelic band from Houston who rubbed shoulders with legends like The 13th Floor Elevators and Moving Sidewalks. After relocating to Los Angeles -- where they changed his name to Christopher -- they played at numerous biker parties and recorded their sole album in 1970 for the Metromedia label. It's an amazing example of West Coast psychedelia/acid-rock featuring strong fuzz-wah guitar, great compositions and superb musicianship. It was housed in a terrific cover depicting the band at the same hippie crash-pad where some scenes from the The Trip movie was filmed. One of the holy grails of American psychedelic-rock and the rarest album originally released by the collectable Metromedia label. Remastered sound. Original artwork. Includes insert with liner notes. "One of the better LPs in the crowded sub-genre of proto-heavy west coast hippie rock, with mid-period Airplane and Cream the obvious influences. The lyrics are memorable strange" --Patrick Lundborg (Acid Archives). "A great 'lost' album from the USA underground, one that grows and grows with repeated listens. Lots of vibrato guitar riffs and creepy vocals a la Frumious Bandersnatch or Framework" --Clark Faville. Hard cardboard sleeve; obi.
