Fapardokly - Fapardokly (1968)



Αφού υπάρχει και μου βρέθηκε από το πουθενά λίγος ακόμα χρόνος ας ανέβει, έστω και «μεταχρονολογημένα» όπως ανέφερε ο φίλος haris. Θα συμφωνήσω επίσης μαζί του όπως πολύ εύστοχα ανέφερε ότι αυτή η δουλειά του Fankhauser είναι ανώτερη από αυτή στους Bounty.

Personnel:
BILL DODD ld gtr A
MERRELL FANKHAUSER gtr A
DICK LEE drms A
JOHN OLIVER bs A

ALBUM:
1(A) FAPARDOKLY (UIP 2250) Feb. 1968
NB: (1) Reissued in 1983 (Psycho 5), 1987 (5 Hours Back Tock 003) and on CD (Sundazed SC 6059) 1995.

The above album was issued in Feb. 1968, but consists of recordings made between 1964-67, during which time the band played in Lancaster, California. It includes material released on 45s with Fankhauser's previous band, The Exiles, which by the time of the album's release was patchy and rather dated. The remainder of the album consists of folk-rock and soft psychedelia. Examples of the latter are the mysterious Gone To Pot and No Retreat. The Fapardokly album remains extremely sought-after.
The recent Sundazed CD includes three previously unreleased tracks The War, Yes I Love You and Run Baby Run.
Compilation appearances include: Supermarket on Sundazed Sampler, Vol. 2 (CD); Gone To Pot and No Retreat on Echoes In Time, Vol. 1 (LP & CD); and Gone To Pot on We Have Come For Your Children.

Αυτό είναι πράγματι σπουδαίο. Όχι ότι τα άλλα δεν είναι, αλλά ο ήχος αυτός σε φτιάχνει πραγματικά, όποια έννοια και να δώσεις στον όρο.
