Title:	The Last Album
Label:	AKARMA (ITALY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	AK 258CD

"Recorded in 1974, Mu's second album never saw the light of day because the band broke up soon after recording. Finally released as a limited Italian-only edition in 1982, the music transmits a delicate mix of soundscapes, in which elements of blues, folk and West Coast psychedelia meld together thanks to a solid guitar base and the incisive vocals of 70s cult icon Merrell Frankhauser. Twenty tracks (bonus tracks). " Fankhauser with Jeff Cotton, Randy Wimer, Jeff Parker, Mary Lee.

2nd album, following Afro Finger & Gel on Tigersushi. "Mu is renowned US-house producer Maurice Fulton and his wife Mutsumi.

Maurice is back with the next Mu album which picks up where last year's debut left off. 'Out Of Breach (Manchester's Revenge)' has spawned this underground anthem in the making. 'We Love Guys Named Luke / Paris Hilton' (OPR76) perfectly encapsulating the twisted genius of Mu and is already seeing major chart action by a diverse array of DJs from Theo Parrish to TrashPreviously unreleased remix of 's Erol Alkan."

Repress of this 1997 reissue, which superseded the prior Subliminal Sounds issue, a completely fantastic release of this group's output spanning 1971-74. Featuring the legendary Merrell Fankhauser (post-HMS Bounty) and Jeff Cotton (post-Beefheart's Magic Band), this features their 1st album, singles tracks and Maui album sessions (unissued at the time, later released in the 80s as The Last Album and then End Of An Era on Reckless. The documentation of cosmic permeation and general aura of "unhingedness" has rarely been equalled within the recording medium, this stuff puts you right there on lip of the saucer. Comes with a booklet of pretty amazing photos and Fankhauser liner notes.

Title:	Return To MU
Label:	SUNDAZED
Format:	CD
Price:	$18.00
Catalog #:	SC 11088CD

Basically the same release as the Captain Trip Merrell Fankhauser: Return to Mu CD -- a collection of Merrell's mid-70s Maui-based songs, performed by various permutations of his Mu collective. Classic hippy idealism and pure saucer infatuation, sounds good no matter what the decade. "Merrell Fankhauser -- The eccentric guitar/ songwriting genius behind psych/folk-rockers Fapardokly and H.M.S. Bounty -- is back on the scene with an all-new album of shimmering delights from MU, his long-dormant band of lysergic visionaries. Return To MU not only flashes the utopian spirit of those golden days of the Summer Of Love, it features many of its original participants, including: Quicksilver Messenger Service guitar god John Cipollina, Jay Ferguson and Ed Cassidy of Spirit, John McEuen of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Rolling Stones/Kinks session keyboard whiz Nicky Hopkins."
