*2024 stock. 300 coipes limited edition* "If there was ever an outsider folk record that truly had it all, here it is! This LP from 1974 is impossible to compare with any other LP, but at the same time, can be compared to some of the most visionary folk LPs ever! Picture a combination of early Bob Dylan, Skip Spence, the first Gordon Bok LP, Tim Buckley, Lou Reed, Peter Grudzien, Ernest Stoneman, Daniel Johnson, Richard & Mimi Farina, Chris Smither, and Phil Ochs. But is a record all its own, with unique and classic songs about loner strangeness, fishermen, other 'heady abstract stuff,' Provincetown girls and the best JFK tribute ever! Also includes some wild trad songs and the amazing psych folk classic 'In Search of Something.' This was privately pressed in 1974, and unbelievably never reissued until now! This reissue includes a cool bonus track (the only song he wrote and recorded after recording the LP) and a eight-page booklet with interviews, photos and excerpts from many of his different writings. First pressing of 300 copies with hand-painted covers."
