13th Floor Elevators: Music of the Spheres



Hello Friends,

Your old pal Ned Tugent celebrated a big birthday this month (hint: its a birthday with a Zero in it) and to help mark the occasion, Miss Tiki Tuscadero scrimped and saved in order to buy MUSIC OF THE SPHERES - The Ultimate 13th Floor Elevators Vinyl Box Set.  A beautifully packaged 9 LP Box with a companion book, some groovy psychedelic prints and pretty much EVERYTHING from the Elevators' tragically short- but hugely influential-- rock n roll career.  The damn thing weighs about 10 pounds!

Fucking incredible is what it is! And we're really going to enjoy the hours of psychedelic music courtesy of Austin, Texas's greatest garage band!  


Over the course of the next couple of months we're really going to sink our teeth into these records and review them here one at a time.  We can't wait!  Especially as this long, cold winter draws to a close and our small corner of the world thaws out and are nights are greeted with brilliant sunsets, dizzying cocktails and some mind-expanding music.

Rarely in life is two minutes quite this satisfying!


Stay Tuned...
