Walker Philips "God's Eye" LP

Acid-folk fans rejoice! God's Eye is the second album by San Francisco based psych-folk musician Walker Phillips. It was recorded in the best '60s-70s tradition using only analog tape and vintage instruments. According to Walker, "it contains some of the best songs I've written." The first side is a suite of pleasant, delicate songs of pure psychedelic-folk bliss that recall Arthur Lee Harper or Donovan at times, while side two is a full-blown psychedelic/jazz/experimental single track inspired by Miles Davis's Bitches Brew, meticulously tape-spliced from about one hour of improvisation. It wanders somewhere between Stockhausen, Pink Floyd, and The Grateful Dead. RIYL: Donovan, Incredible String Band, Kaleidoscope, Arthur Lee Harper, Marc Bolan, Pink Floyd...
