Another Eastern-inspired acid folk record. But this one differs from the usual bunch of guitar-thumbing dopesmokers, first of all because it is from 1978, and second of all because, unlike every damn "raga" record from the golden era that I seem to come across, very few people know of it yet. I for one haven't seen it mentioned that often, possibly because of its age. Either way, it's a lovely record - somewhat like the Satwa lp that was recently rereleased on Time Lag. Mellow and soothing, with a few bluegrass moments. If Alexander is reading this, he will know that this is the record for him.
I am uploading two tracks: Ragu Improvisation, authentic hippy-drum-circle raga, and the last track, Sutra Blues, one of three tracks with vocals, and the loudest of the album's eight, even featuring a distorted guitar.

Also, do not shut down your computer, and do not disconnect your Interweb, because, very soon, this very blog will carry my guide to Czechoslovakian beat, psych, prog and RIO, and an examination of Japanese blues music. And all of it in CHARMINGLY poor English!

yeah, I just saw it. I looked around the forum a bit, and I'm ten times as aryan as most of these people. it's almost funny.
that's america: -- sheer cretinism.
I recorded, edited and mixed this album in 1978. Side one was done in my home studio on two- and four- track TEAC machines at 15 IPS. Side two was a mix of older tapes Sid had that I edited and remastered. Sutra Blues was recorded on an Ampex 440 eight-track at Ripcord Studios in Vancouver, Washington. The assistant engineer didn't put the electric guitar track on 'safe' and recorded over the intro.. that's why it just jumps out from nowhere.
