Headstone Circus
was formed in 1966 by
Glenn Faria
(who also released some solo music on World In Sound). This beautiful album was recorded between 1968-1970, and on the first spin it is reminiscent of
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
-- four-way street electric sides. Well-composed, well-performed, and in line with some of the better
Neil Young
albums, with an extra weird touch. "
Around 1966,
Nick Bonis
,
Mike Johnstone
,
Randy Pope
, and I formed a psychedelic band. On Halloween night we went to an old cemetery, dropped acid, and spent a very strange night among the tombstones. The tombstones appeared to be melting and taking on animal shapes. Some of us saw spirits, and I'm not sure what I saw, but it was disturbing. Afterwards, we referred to that night as the 'Headstone Circus.' It seemed appropriate to call ourselves Headstone Circus as a band so we did.
" Enjoy this amazing West Coast album which was recorded in Washington D.C.

This project turned out to be a real beauty. The band was formed in 1966 by Glenn Faria (who also released some solo music on WorldInSound). This album was recorded in 1968-70. On the first spin it reminds of Crosby Stills, Nash & Young -- 4 way street electric sides. It is so well-composed and performed. Also some of the better Neil Young albums might go in the same direction. But it has that extra weird touch. "Around 1966, Nick Bonis, Mike Johnstone, Randy Pope, and I formed a psychedelic band.
