Mort Garson was involved in many areas of the music business, including professional pianist and easy listening arranger, conductor, and composer, prior to becoming interested in electronica.  

Along with spoken word artist, Jacques Wilson, electronic music pioneer Paul Beaver, and Beaver's partner, Bernie Krause, Garson produced a series of albums using electronic synthesizer technology.  

For this LP, based on the children's classic tale by L. Frank Baum, Garson composed and "realized" the electronic music, the script or "odyssey" was conceived, written and narrated by Wilson, and  Bernard "Bernie" Krause was the "electronic producer". Nancy Sinatra aka Susie Jane Hokom (All Music has 'Hokom' spelled incorrectly') plays the part of Dorothy.

Please check out our auctions for another Mort Garson LP, "Zodiac Cosmic Sounds", and the classic psych pop LP "Nancy & Lee", with Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood. (At the time "The Wozard of Iz" was produced, Jacques Wilson was under contract to LHI Records, Lee Hazelwood's record label.)
