Artist: SAINT STEVEN
Title: Saint Steven
Label: PROBE
Format: LP
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: CP 4506LP
Exact replica repro; gatefold jacket. "Saint Steven is actually Steve Cataldo, who had previously been the guitarist and singer/songwriter for the minor late-'60s Boston psychedelic band Front Page Review. This is his 1969 album, also called Saint Steven. There are semi-suite-like productions on the two LP sides, divided into sides called 'Over the Hills' and 'The Bastich,' but side two of Abbey Road this ain't. In its way, it reflects the disoriented confusion of the period. It's considered a highly desirable psychedelic collectible by some" --All Music Guide.


Artist: MORGEN
Title: Morgen
Label: PROBE
Format: LP
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: CP 4507HLP
2010 repress. Exact replica exact repro; 180 Gram Vinyl. "Singer/guitarist Steve Morgen and company originally hailed from Long Island, New York. Signed by ABC's short-lived Probe subsidiary, their 1969 debut Morgen teamed them with producer Murray Shiffrin. After this superb debut, the entire band quite simply disappeared. If you're into heavy psych guitar, then this is for you. While Morgen had a competent, if limited voice, he was a truly amazing guitarist with the likes of Nick Saloman of Bevis Frond becoming a staunch advocate of Morgen's status as a 'psychedelic guitar hero.' Tracks such as 'Eternity In Between,' 'Welcome To the Void,' 'Of Dreams' and 'Beggin' Your Pardon' (Miss Joan) were simply drenched with fuzz and feedback guitar. Underpinned by Maiman's powerhouse drumming (easily compared with Led Zepplin's John Bonham) and suitably trippy lyrics and you're looking at a pseudo-classic slice of psychedelia."


Artist: SOFT MACHINE
Title: The Soft Machine
Label: PROBE
Format: LP
Price: $16.50
Catalog #: CPLP 4500HLP
Gatefold 180 gram reissue, licensed to Universal. "The Soft Machine deftly combine '60s psych-pop, jazz, and rock into a unique sound that stands up to repeated listenings more than most music today. The instrumentals are awesome -- interplay between organ, drums, bass and vocals make for intricate rockers with priceless moments. Wyatt's lispy voice is off-putting at first, but endearing on more listens, aided by his clever and often witty lyrics. Songs like 'A Certain Kind,' 'Save Yourself,' 'Lullabye Letter,' and 'Why Are We Sleeping' are great '60s psych-pop, with good hooks, but still original sounding."


Artist: SOFT MACHINE
Title: Volume Two
Label: PROBE
Format: LP
Price: $11.50
Catalog #: CPLP 4505LP
Exact repro reissue of Soft Machine's legendary second album, originally released in 1969, bridging the gap between avant-rock, psych, jazz and stream-of-consciousness weirdo absurdism. "The Soft Machine plays music for the mind. In its strictest sense, it may impose some cerebral responsibility on the listener, because you can't really hum along or have the tune pass through head as you walk in the streets. But the ultimate good feeling that the Machine generates will always remain with you, and the final emotional benefit is well worth the thinking toll."
