Crystal
Image are one the longest lasting unknown bands from the San Francisco
scene. Playing the coffee houses as early as the late fifties, the
started recording psychedelic music in early 1968, spawning 20 something
single releases. But it would take them till the mid seventies to
release their first album, producing a total of 3 LPs.
All
of their LPs are highly sought after by private pressing collectors
and psychedelic music lovers alike. They supported such bands as
Quicksilver, The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane and many other,
now legendary former local acts. Their music was in the vain of
Jefferson Airplane, just sometimes even heavier with
fantastic fuzz wah-wah guitars.
This re-issue comes straight from the master tapes in amazing HIFI
sound. In collaboration with Mr. John Covert, the mastermind behind
Crystal Image, himself.
The
CD features a band story and unseen Photos, as well as 5 bonus tracks.
