"This album begins with a stalwart of the live show and is the most played of any Family song on the radio, 'Weaver's Answer.' John Whitney and Roger Chapman were writing separately as well as Rik Gretch. What results is much like a Grateful Dead studio album: songs that did not really sound great there but were transformed by public performance. 'Second Generation Woman' sounds like any other band except Family, and of the slower songs, 'How-Hi-The-Li' is a must. The lack of live albums by this band means that one needs to have the studio albums to capture the joys of their sound. Well worth having in your collection even if it is only for 'Weaver's Answer.'" 180 gram virgin vinyl. Limited edition of 1000 copies. We're told this is the last ever reissue to come out on the Tapestry label (putting Liechtenstein on the map since early 2007!).

"Led by singer/multi-instrumentalist Wayne Ceballos, with drummer Larry Martin and bassist Ken Newell rounding out the trio, the group's initial reputation stemmed from their jam-oriented concerts. As one would expect from the title, the group's 1969 album found them working in a distinctively blues-vein. Reflecting the band's live act, this Richard Gotthrer-produced debut features a series of seven extended jams, (the shortest song clocking in at 4 minutes). Ceballos proved a decent singer, injecting considerable energy into his performances and the band really soars on many occasions. Truly interesting." 180 gram virgin vinyl. Limited edition of 1000 copies.

"Although poised on the threshold of stardom in the late '60s armed with a multi-album record contract, a growing fan base, and a release that leaped to #1 in Boston, in Louisiana, and in Florida, The Jellybean Bandits fully expected to follow in the successful footsteps of their fellow label mates, Big Brother & the Holding Company and The Amboy Dukes. Instead they managed to record only this one gem, a freakbeat cult classic distinguished by Jack Dougherty's emotive guitar. Recorded in one 12-hour rush in 1967 (and 3/4 of it written the six days previous to the session) the album is a psych-punk collector's classic." 180 gram virgin vinyl, limited edition of 1000 copies.

Originally issued in 1969. "Not many progressive rock bands took religious and spiritual influences further into their music than Quintessence. The band were mainly attracted to Hinduism, but they also made references to Buddhism and Christianity in some of their songs. Musically they blended early progressive rock with elements of Eastern music, and their debut In Blissful Company remains a very representative example of their sound. Much like the Grateful Dead, the on-stage performances were a vital and energizing experience and much cherished by a large following in Britain." 180 gram virgin vinyl, gatefold sleeve, limited edition of 1000 copies.

"It all started back in 1967 when the musicians Lennie Wright, Kenny Beveridge, Tom Harris, Tony Edwards and John Eaton moved to London and started a band they gave a rather hopeless name: John L. Watson and The Web. Watson was an American singer who had joined the band. The year after, the band wisely changed their name to just The Web, and recorded their first album called Fully Interlocking. This is the follow-up Theraphosa Blondi and has some greatly listenable moments, showing a band deep into the current of post-pop progressive rock music." 180 gram virgin vinyl, limited edition of 1000 copies.

"This is one of the best acid-punk LPs ever! Excellent Vox organ/fuzz teen garage psych and the covers are pretty fantastic as well. The cough syrup high school play vibe of 'Deaf, Dumb & Blind' must be heard to be believed. Easily one of the best on the label with lots of classy psych-punk originals and a truly unique vibe all through it." 180 gram virgin vinyl. Limited to 1000 copies. Originally released 1968.
