3.Cold Sun, Dark Shadows. or Dark Shadows, Cold Sun. A Texas band.Contrary to popular bilief the Rockadelic release above is a not a straight reissue of an acetape.An acetape was found with several tracks by the group (only one known copy exists now in a private collection).. and through this acetape information to the group was dug up.The leader of the band was found to several tapes of sixties material and from these tapes the Dark Shadows album was mastered.Most of the material on the Rockadelic album does not appear on the acetape.The release is well worth picking up-
a genuinely phychedelic item with lots of superb and often discordend electric autoharp & sustained fuzz quitars & lots of fresh ideas.The vocals don't always reach the same standar but this album is recommended
