The Past & Present label reissues volume 2 of the Mind Expanders compilation series -- some of the rarest, most funky, weird and downright excellent tracks in existence. Available on CD for the first time ever and including detailed notes, it's an intriguing assemblage, and undoubtedly one that will encourage collectors and creators alike to explore the lost world of strange recordings. Another great set of rare tunes from the '70s -- a mother lode of cuts with lots of strings, fuzzed-out guitars, sexy Eastern-esque tabla/clarinet duets, sitar, Hammond organs and even steel drums. Cover tune award on this one goes to The Soulful Strings for their sitared and feathered version of The Beatles' "Within You Without You." This album is a must for fans of Vampyros Lesbos and sundry other erotic soundtracks, as well as just musical weirdness, in general. Other artists include: The Stradivarius, The Flying Guitars, Acker Bilk, Emery Deutsch & The Astro Sounds, The Scottmen, The Dynatones, Bauer Productions, Shell Street Orchestra, International Bongo Band, Didier Vincent, The Renegades, Robert Gretch, Jamie Perez, Unknown, Timezone, and Thomas Natschinski Und Seine Gruppe.
