Folk Lp Psych Private Hear Acid Prog Avant Howard Houck Old Ego Australia Oz

HOWARD HOUCK Old Ego LP limited 205 copies 33rpmPrivate / StonehengeNCP316Australia1979Something rather special.
Never before seen.Eccentric loner instrumental Acid Folk from the Adelaide Hills, South Australia 1979.
Limited to just 205 copies stated on back of sleeve .
Old-time and modern instruments playing Houck s own contemporary compositions.
Central to the record is Houck s Clough And Warren organ, which at times is driven far beyond it s intended rationale.
Guitar, flute, strings and trumpet also make appearance and contribute to the record s general overall weirdness deftly exemplified in the cover art, an incredible automatic-drawing by Houck s lover and future wife Robyn.
Pressed on his own private Stonehenge imprint, this is the second of only two releases by Houck, both of which are genuinely impossible to find.
After this LP he appears to have simply given up recording for social work and eventually retired to the S.A suburbs - of late writing garrolous letters of concern for international affairs to the local newspapers.
