The 13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS - Headstone: The Contact Sessions
NOT ON LABEL
Indie / New Wave / Post-PunkNew Vinyl LP / 23.50 EUR
The Contact Sessions were the first studio recordings by The 13th Floor Elevators, recorded in Texas in January and February 1966, which never saw the light of day in those heady drug-filled days. This release consists of mono versions of the 11 original tracks plus four remastered stereo alternative takes. In addition to the studio material, this package includes four previously unreleased live recordings from La Maison in 1966, including ‘We’ve Gotta Get Out Of This Place’ and two other previously unreleased tracks. The recordings were remastered and remixed in 2007 by the original the 13th floor elevators producer Walt Andrus.
