THE RED CRAYOLA with THE FAMILIAR UGLY The Parable Of Arable
Land (2009 US exclusive limited edition 13-track LP pressed
on 160gram VINYL, originally released in 1967 as the 2nd
longplayer on the legendary International Artists label from Houston,
Texas - the Crayola's debut is a unique document, combining
devastatingly original garage-psych numbers with free form barrages
of pure noise [created by around 50 of the group's friends, named The
Familiar Ugly]; in addition, this issue features the rare and highly
desirable mono mix, which is special for 3 reasons: it's the
only mix that the band had control over; it's taken from the original
master tape [no true stereo master was made, only an electronically
processed 'miracle sound' version], and, unbelievably, it's NEVER
been reissued in any form, officially or otherwise, in over 40 years!
