USA - PROBE - CPLP 4507PLAYS MINTY CLEAN CONTAINS THE SOUGHT AFTER FOLD OUT LYRICS PHOTOS INSERTMEGA RARE and HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER... Original 1970 first pressing in thick gatefold cover ... the mighty MORGEN ...full tilt sonic FUZZ barrage blitz... Morgen was
a hard rock/psych band that hailed from Long Island, NY. They were
fronted by guitarist/vocalist/wild man Steve Morgen but also included
drummer Bob Maiman and guitarists Barry Stock and Rennie Genossa. In
1969, record label Probe ABC released the group s sole offering. The
album s best known track is the classic Welcome To The Void. 40
years later this cut s over the top acid guitar work and pounding drums
still shred the best of speakers. Certainly a unique mixture of acid
garage and hard rock, Welcome To The Void is essential listening.
There are other great cuts to be found on Morgen, like the stealth
rocker Purple and the freaky fuzz corker Of Dreams. Eternity In
Between, probably influenced by the Who, is another excellent track
that is injected by an explosive drum solo right from the start. Steve
Morgen s sexually charged lyrics and over the top vocals will irritate
some listeners but that s really a minor complaint as most of Morgen is
full of great fuzz guitar solos and solid songs. No beads or flowers
for these guys, Morgen is straight up brooding hard rock psych. A
mini-maxxed-out gem of a record that will reward patient listeners. Over
the years Morgen has been reissued by grey area bootleggers Eva and
Radioactive. Originals may set you back a few to several hundreds
of dollars. CONDITION: The cover: rated: GATEFOLD M- front, M- insides, EX excellent back the black back cover is notorious for
