Shiva's Headband was The First rock/country rock groupTo establishThe Austin, TexasMUSIC scene. They were also The First Austin Texas groupTo be signedToA major record label. The above album, Take Me To TheMountains came out in 1970, offThe RCA label.
The cover Art is very surreal and striking, only hinting at TheSoundsFrom within. Take Me To TheMountains isA wild and woolly mixtureof psychedelia, country, blues, hippie rock, folk,TEX-MEX and rock. Similar in style To The Sir Douglas Quintet, although Spencer Perskin's fiddle dominates rather than Auggie Meyer's classic organSound . Vocals are mainly sung by Spencer Perskin with HIS wife Suzy taking The occasional lead, as heard wonderfullyOnThe blues rock stomper Homesick Armadillo Blues.
The playing On this record is tight, care-free and fun, few RecordsFromThe 1960's - early 1970's are so laid back and joyous. Ripple is A good example of this approach, highlighted by some great, icey blues guitar playing. Some of The country-rock numbers are real classics too. Take A listen To Take MeToTheMountains and My BabyFOR that real, recklessSPACE cowboy feel. The Psychedelic high point is Without A doubt SongFOR Peace. Spencer's fiddle and Suzy's organ dominate this hypnotic, drifting psych masterwork. This song was released as A single in The late 60's albeit inA trippier, even morePsychedelic version.
There are no weak tracks On this record which really carves out it's own Sound . The production of Take Me ToTheMountains works really well too, inA bare bones minimalist way. It's important To note that Spencer Perskin is Oneof Austin's most popular musicians having established Armadillo Headquarters. In 1971 Shiva released A private press album titled Coming ToA Head. This is also A great record with more ofA country westernSound . ( ) (Jason/therisingstorm.net)
