Tracks 1-6 are ripped from the original

Tracks 7-20 are rough mixes, raw session tapes.
Occasional studio chatter can be heard between
tracks.

Track 9 is an alternate mix, notable for its
lack of backing vocals.

Track 13 is heard here from a tape playback,
rather than the more common acetate source.
It seems to have been truncated on purpose;
the noise at the end is a reel-to-reel tape
coming to a halt.  Had the acetate not been
found, nothing more would have remained of
this song.

Track 20 is a rough mix; no alternate version
has ever surfaced.

13th Floor Elevators - Live at Avalon Ballroom 2nd gen tape (1966)


Really Special! Special! This is a processed clone of a known 2nd gen soundboard recording of the famous "Avalon '66" recording. This quality BLOWS AWAY ALL that came before including the original, French label, boot. This is the definitive version. If that wasn't sick enough, we added on the speed corrected Sump'n Else TV Show tracks. These are the same recordings Sundazed botched by putting out at too fast a speed. These are slowed down to the correct pitch so Roky and crew don't sound like Alvin And The Chipmunks. You need this! It's an 80 minute slap o' sickness!

13th Floor Elevators - Attack of the 8 tracks

 Click in the pics for more info.
Also read the setlist.
A very complete archive.
 *
AaaRrr she´s a beauty ! 
*
"These recordings languished in collectors circles for almost 40 years, never even played, it took the Roky cd club to free them for those who VALUE THE *THING*, the object, the music, for the first time ever, true sanity prevails on the 8-track mix of the mighty PSYCHEDELIC SOUNDS appears here (changed for cd)"...ouh yes brothers, enjoy.

*******
This one goes to:
Several Anonymous guys, Jr, Its just me, Joey, Pablo, F, Mark, Dr Funkestein, Marabunta, Pep Sonic, Stupiddle, Elmer Dinkley, Henry, JBFrance, Mp, T T-Rex, Pamela, Ge (always loved your profile pics!keep them up!), Al, Romi, Matt H, Viacomclosedmedown on youtub, Roadrunner...
& to all of those who visit´n´drop comments on the Garage blog.
******
One of the guys said that I was looking for comments saying thanks and to grow my ego-soul, or bothering the visitors to cheer me or something, 
the point Im trying to make here, its that if I took 20 minutes to prepare the post and another hour or 2 depending the upload sites to put the music, im just asking 1, 2 or maximum 3 minutes to drop a comment about the band/music/stuff im posting, thats all,

I wanna know if you do love Roky and the 13th, or the post of the day, if you have the stuff already, what do you want, ( for example: like JBFrance asking for other stuff too), dropping opinions, info, anything you want, thats the most interesting thing to me, reading your comments and opinion. Its not nice (believe me) posting stuff & no getting anything exchange, 

your comments are my monthly & only salary-wage on the blogger-sphere!
 
the Bomber only wants ------> Feedback (with the audience)

Thats all folks!
Thanks for your time,  much appreciated.
Hope we get the same quantity of comments in every post.
=)

 I  love sharing music with you.

13th Floor Elevators - Live in Texas (1967)

from Texas, no introduction necesary..
Por si alguien les escapa...

13th Floor Elevators: Live At The Avalon Ballroom (US, 1966)

Out of order...
Shure...you do remember the Kinks cover here.

They played at the Avalon ballroom four times and once at the Fillmore West. Their first album was released during their stay in California and this, plus the fact they gigged a lot at the Avalon Ballroom, led many people to believe them to be a San Francisco band. In fact, they actually put on an all-Texan show at the Avalon during their California stay with Big Brother and The Holding Company (Janis Joplin was from Austin, Texas and at one time nearly joined The 13th Floor Elevators) and the Sir Douglas Quintet. The band's time in California helped to forge important links between America's West Coast and the hitherto relatively isolated Texas psychedelic scene. The Elevators would return to California two more times in late 1967 and in 1968.
