Songs Of The Humpback Whale


Songs Of The Humpback Whale (1970)

"Whale songs have probably been heard, though seldom recognized as such, ever since man began to make voyages by sea. In the literature of whaling alone there are many accounts of strange, ethereal sounds, reverberating faintly through a quiet ship at night, mystifying sailors in their bunks."

Cromagnon - Cave Rock (1969)


"Cromagnon was the result of two top 40 songwriters (accustomed to make bubblegum pop) who seemed to have completely lost their minds. I mean they must have, to produce something as wacked as this record. Bagpipes, pounding percussion, blood-curdling yelps, chanting, laughing, and billowing subterranean rumblings create the otherworldly sounscape that is Cave Rock. Heralded as one the best freak-out records of all time, Cave Rock was ridiculously ahead of its time and brings to mind the savage sound-fuckery of Nurse With Wound and Throbbing Gristle as well as the hallucinations of early Red Krayola "
