LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

A lost classic of the lost 1960s, a psychedelic masterpiece drenched in colour and inspired by life, love, poverty, rebellion, and, of course, 'Jumpers, coke, and sweet mary jane'.

A Latin-tinged singer with a style that's a bit like that of Jose Feliciano, but trippier, and with more rock and folk touches! This set's probably his best one -- thanks to arrangements and production by Dennis Coffey and Mike Theodore, both of whom give the album a stoned-out feel that sets it up nicely with other work on the Sussex label at the time. The album's got a lot of "deep" cuts with semi-political lyrics .

This LP became HUGE in South-Africa.
