CHRISTMAS - ST (1970 psych Velvet Underground style) CD
PACEMAKERDreamy and atmospheric, with lovely vocals and understated guitar work suffused with a melancholic vibe every bit the match of that of the Velvet Underground's third album — with a touch of early Grateful Dead rumble — comparisons all the more telling when you hear the ambitious 21-minute instrumental 'Jungle Fabulous' that represented the original LP’s entire second side, and which closes out the proceedings.
This is the debut album by Bob Bryden's (Reign Ghost) "dream band", first released on Paragon in 1970 the same day as the second Reign Ghost album! The rarest artifact by this much-beloved Canadian underground band finally sees its compact disc debut — a great event for psychedelic fans worldwide!
