Limited 400 copies black vinyl. The first ever official reissue of this highly-rated and very rare US album. Don L. Patterson (aka One St. Stephen) wrote the music and lyrics, was lead vocalist, played electric guitars, directed and produced the album 'One St. Stephen' in March of 1975. The music was originally intended for a film Don was developing with the working title 'The Devil's Reservation'. Due to a famous Jazz musician with the same name, Don used the alias of One St. Stephen. The music was recorded at the legendary Owl Studios (Columbus, Ohio), using the same 8-channel analog recording deck that was used to tape the audio at Woodstock in 1969. Because everyone who heard the LP wanted a copy, Don pressed a very limited amount from Queen City Record Company (Cincinnati Ohio). He also designed the album sleeve and label. The response by regional disc jockeys was phenomenal. The album got a lot of regional air play. A few months later, Don was offered a recording contract from two major record companies in New York City. Don was asked to tour. Don was never interested in the world of rock and walked away from a music future. Since then, the album has been sought by many record collectors around the world and bootlegged several times on CD and vinyl in Europe. One of the finest examples of mid-70's US psych-acid music. Great vocals with some Jim Morrison "colour", heavy and sometimes fuzzy acidelic guitar work and excellent musicianship overall. Fully licenced by Don Patterson (who did half of the remastering work). Exact reproduction for the cover and labels. It includes extra poster/painting (45x65cm) and large 12-pages booklet (30x30cm) with bio, lyrics, paintings,drawings and photos. All fully laminated. PVC protective outersleeve. 180gr. vinyl as usual."
