Gathering Of Promises (deluxe edition)

Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 579919) International Artists/Snapper (UK), 1969 — Condition: New Copy

The lone album from the Bubble Puppy – a monumental effort of late 60s hard grooving psychedelia – and one of very best albums to come out of the original Texas psych scene! A couple of the Pup's labelmates at United Artists get a lot of revelry all these years later, and rightfully so – who would argue the importance of The Red Krayola and 13th Floor Elevators – but Bubble Puppy deserve to be on that top shelf, too. The sound is tight and hard hitting, with trippy lyricism and groovy group harmonies, while the guitars range from cathartic fuzz to some surprisingly pretty melodicism. Not as far out as some of their peers, but the groove is absolutely killer. This deluxe CD features the original album and 8 bonus tracks, including a few alternate mixes and single versions. Titles include the benchmark single "Hot Smoke And Sasafrass", plus "Todd's Tune", "I've Got To Reach You", "Lonely", "Hurry Sundown", "Elizabeth", "It's Safe To Say", "Beginning" and much more. Bonus tracks include "If I Had A Reason", "What Do You See", "Thinkin' About Thinkin'", "Hot Smoke And Sassafrass" (mono single version) and more.  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
