Maitreya Kali: Apache/Inca 2 LP 1999, Germany/2 Little Indians. SEALED limited edition reissue of the 1972 Custom Fidelity private press This is the only way to get this set with the original mix, on vinyl with inserts, short of lightning striking at a yard sale causing an original to pop out at you. Rare is hardly the word to use. Considering how scarce the original pressing is, I would imagine less than 100 were made. This repressing was limited to 450, I think and is seldom offered these days. The music covers a stretch of about five years, so you get some folk rock, some psych and garage, and some loner folk. It s a mesmerizing package that should not be missed. You should also be aware that Ugly Things magazine editor Mike Stax has published a terrific bio of the artist that is a must-read Kali is well-represented on YouTube, but start here:
Everything I offer is guaranteed. I try to note any flaws with the disc and the cover so that there are no surprises when the box arrives. Be sure to view my other iamthewitch auctions as I have more stuff like this up for grabs this week.
I ship all records in strong cardboard mailers with cardboard flats added to increase stability, and all albums are dressed in plastic sleeves for travel. Please be aware that these supplies are expensive to purchase and represent a small portion of my shipping charges. I pack/ship one day per week, usually it is Friday.
