Four hippies go to India in the 1960's, stay for two years & then
return to the San Francisco Bay area & this would be the outcome.
Tracks: A1 Whole Earth Rhythm 3:25 A2 Dhun 4:23 A3 Babu Shoda 8:30 A4 Ha Ha Modi 6:08
B1 People Brittle 4:38 B2 I Give You Johnee The Truth 5:53 B3 Dabi Das' Song 12:39
Personnel : Michael Bell : Sador, Acoustic Guitar Josh Collins : Tabla, Percussion Peter Van Gendler : Sitar, Guruji Kenny Wilson : Esraj, Bamboo Flute
With Peter Van Gelder (ex-Great Society) after the long trip to India. Cosmic sitar folk and psych, trippy female & male vocals, chanting in English and Hindu, lots of ethnic instruments. An early example of a genre that would become common during the 1970's.
The LP was picked up by UNI (73116) and re-released in 1971 with a new and less blatantly druggy cover. The UNI press is a good way to check out the LP cheap.
If the Mid-East vibe is your thing then don't miss out on this L.P. !
Well, when I first post this album, exactly one year before today... I get a lot of bad comments about the low quality (128kbps) Of course quality wasn't so bad, as at least 10 blogs repost that "low quality" files...
So finally I have a better rip, from my original vinyl of this mindblowing album !!!
That's good news: 320 kbps. This album is a pearl. I spoke out in favor of you in the first post ( old blog). I hope all is well with everyone. Peace, Fabiana.

They were great even at your 128kbps, but @320 it's a pure nektar! May you live 1000 years!
