Holy Modal Rounders – Stampfel & Weber (Holy Modal Rounders 1/Holy Modal Rounders 2)

LP (Item 562090) Prestige/Fantasy, 1964/1965 — Condition: Very Good+
2LP
A massive double set of early genius from Peter Stampfel and Steve Weber! First up is Holy Modal Rounders Two – the second album from the Holy Modal Rounders – with the more traditional folk material on one side, and the Holy Modal Rounders inspired blend of strangeness and oddball charm on the other – and inspired mix of reverent folk duo revivalism, and strangely fun spins on the styles with their own 60s twists. Titles include "Flop Eared Mule", "Black Eyed Susie", "Sail Away Ladies", "Junko Partner", "Mole In The Ground", "Hot Corn, Cold Corn", "Chevrolet Six", "Crowley Waltz", "Bully Of The Town" and more. Next is the first album for Prestige by The Holy Modal Rounders – the earliest of their early folk based material, with hints at the weirder sounds to com! It;s playful, humorous and somehow kind of keeps some sinister strangeness in the shadows of their 60s take on traditional folk tunes and styles. Vocals, banjo, fiddle and acoustic guitar get the job done on these tunes, with "Blues In The Bottle", "The Cuckoo", "Euphoria", "Hey, Hey Baby", "Reuben's Train", "Moving Day", "Same Old Man", "Hip High Ladies", "Bound To Lose" and more.  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Very Good + (plus)

  • Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
  • Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
  • Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
  • This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
  • May have slight surface noise when played.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Gale Force
Fantasy, 1977. Very Good+
A rock/soul outing from Gale Force – a group comprised of brothers Len and Ken Gale, hence the name!
