Head Shop

The Head Shop

Re-released as jewel case. "DO YOU WANT HEAD? BLOW YOUR MIND WITH THE HEAD SHOP ALBUM!" screams a commercial add in New York's Screw magazine in 1969. Here's the audiophile produced vinyl reissue from the mastertapes, produced and arranged by Milan, a.k.a. Rick Rodell, and Max Ellen, both professionals in the music business. The band had garagy roots and evolved from Household Sponge to The Head Shop. Based in NYC, this psychedelic underground project had a unique sound, charcterized by soulful vocals, flying Hammond organ, fuzzy bass, distorted lead guitars, lots of percussive and weird rhythm instruments, plus several unexpected stereo experiments. A highlight for sure is their haunted interpretation of Bobby Hebb's 'Sunny'! Conceptional, but also musically there are some parallels to Joe Meek. Another major influence is The Beatles' experimental period, not just because of the cover version of 'Revolution.' Larry Coryell features as "wailing" guest musician on the track, 'I Feel Love Comin' On.' Also including the truly demented 'Listen With The Third Ear,' this album with 9 musical chapters will lead you into new musical and audiophile dimensions of psychedelic and progressive music.
