Description
THE ZODIACS Cosmic Sounds hails from 2017 and is a SEALED Mono LP limited edition Glow-In-The-Dark vinyl (blackened UPC and dinged corner). The 1967 concept album, The Zodiac - Cosmic Sounds, features both music and spoken narration on the theme of signs of the zodiac. Based on an initial idea by Elektra chief Jac Holzman, it was a collaborative effort with music written by Mort Garson, words by Jacques Wilson, and narration by Cyrus Faryar. The early use of the Moog synthesizer was by Paul Beaver. There was no artist called either The Zodiac or Cosmic Sounds, a fact which confused some LP buyers. The back sleeve informed listeners that the record "Must Be Played In The Dark."
It was heavily played by John Peel on his Perfumed Garden shows, where he used it as a basis for a competition (he had been sent a copy by Clive Selwood, the then head of Elektra's London office and later to become Peel's manager). The LP was extremely popular with Perfumed Garden listeners and was mentioned in the lyrics of Geoffrey Prowse's fan tribute to the program, "The Perfumed Garden Blues" or "John Peel's Lament."
