Description
The Electric Prunes - RELEASE OF AN OATH is a 1968 LP release on the Reprise label # RS-6316.
The second album of composer David Axelrod and producer Dave Hassinger is much less notorious than its predecessor, Mass in F Minor. This is a shame, because it's actually the better album by far. Mass in F Minor is a halting, muddy attempt at combining rock and classical instrumentation, an idea that's better explored on Release of an Oath (which is, according to the liner notes, based on a centuries-old prayer called the Kol Nidre). Songs like the liturgical "Holy Are You" and the mostly instrumental "General Confessional" combine swirling string and woodwind parts with heavy guitar and organ in a more organic and cohesive fashion than before. Musically complex and intriguing without being nearly as pretentious as a capsule description might indicate, Release of an Oath is a remarkable piece of early American progressive rock.
The album includes the original Reprise sleeve. The jacket, which is still in the shrink wrap, is in NM shape. The record is in VG++ to NM condition. High bidder agrees to pay $4.00 shipping in the U.S
