'Awesome exploito-type album from Italy in 1967... It starts with a long improvised trip and then moves into some great shorter psych cuts' - High All The Time
Legendary Italian psychedelia
Originally released I 1967
Originals have sold for 5000 euros
Background notes included
Mario Schifano was a leading Italian pop artist, and a friend of the Rolling Stones and other prominent 1960s counter-cultural figures. Inspired by Andy Warhol's association with The Velvet Underground, in 1967 he decided to sponsor a band. The album that resulted combines a lengthy improvisation with five shorter, psychedelic-influenced tracks, and is a landmark in the development of Italian rock. Pressed in tiny quantities, it was released in November 1967 (with artwork designed by Schifano), and original copies have sold for thousands of euros, making this long-awaited CD reissue especially welcome.
