Free Music Notes for Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators
Free Music Review: Deluxe reissue of psych classic
Hit: 5 Stars
The Elevators' catalog has had some rough treatment over the years. There are several CD versions of this album on the market, including a U.S. reissue from Collectables that's gotten bad marks for its fidelity, and several imports. This latest is from Snapper's Charly label out of the UK, and in addition to the album's original eleven tracks, it includes eight live tracks (all but two from an oft-issued Avalon Ballroom performance), and both sides of the pre-Elevators' single by The Spades.
The album tracks sound about as good as they're likely to get, given that the original master tapes were lost some time ago, and the bonuses, likewise sound similar to other issues. This is an excellent 70-minute package, fleshing out the classic original album with a host of live covers ("Everybody Needs Somebody to Love" "Before You Accuse Me" "I'm Gonna Love You Too" "You Really Got Me" "Roll Over Beethoven" "The Word" "Gloria"), one live original ("She Lives (In a Time of Her Own)"), and Roky Erickson's originals of "We Sell Soul" and "You're Gonna Miss Me."
Digipack reproductions of the original album art are sharp but small enough to be virtually unreadable. Luckily the enclosed booklet reproduces the album's back cover notes, and includes new liners from Jon "Mojo" Mills along with several period photos. 21 tracks on a single disc - a great buy!
