MEU AMIGOS ENVENENADOS: QUE SOM CHAPANTE!! É VIAGEM PROFUNDA!! DEEP TRIP!! BANDA AMERICANA QUE FAZIA UM SOM COM FAIXAS LONGAS, EXTREMAMENTE TRABALHADAS E COM EXPERIMENTALISMOS ALTAMENTE ÁCIDOS E PSICODÉLICOS!! UMA VERDADEIRA INOVAÇÃO MUSICAL É QUE SE HOUVE NESTE DISCO!! COLOQUE O DISCO, SENTE NUM SOFÁ CONFORTÁVEL, SIRVA O VINHO E FIQUE VIAJANDO POR CERCA DE 40 MINUTOS TOTALMENTE FORA DO PLANETA!! "PHIL PEARLMAN" DEPOIS FORMOU OUTRA ÓTIMA BANDA CHAMADA "RELATIVELY CLEAN RIVERS", CUJA POSTAGEM ESTÁ AQUI NO BLOG TAMBÉM!! VENENO PURO E COM EFEITOS COLATERAIS ALUCINANTES!! ALTAMENTE RECOMENDÁVEL PRA QUEM GOSTA DE LONGAS SUÍTES PSICODELICAS!! 

"The music was free-form, original, and unrehearsable, since it was all spontaneous. I remarked to Phil that it was the steady thrum one experienced when you went to a Love-In. All these small groups of musicians playing guitars, tambourines, flutes, auto-harps, bongos, anything that made sound, all simultaneously, created a type of orderly orchestral sound. The combined beats were primitive, primal, the beat of the earth..."

The Beat Of The Earth: "Phil Pearlman, whose Relatively Clean Rivers album has received universal acclaim, assembled Beat Of The Earth in 1967 with this, their first, eponymous album, appearing on the Radish label (AS0001) in the same year. BOTE is often compared with their illustrious East coast counterparts, The Velvet Underground, an apt comparison given the Velvet's penchant for long, unstructured jams using a myriad assortment of acoustic and electronic instruments. This is the earliest incarnation of the band, and the one that is most familiar to collectors fortunate enough to own a copy of this incredibly rare album. 

The album consists of a single track per side, and this, the band's recording debut, is considered an unusual and singular item of significance from the California '60s alternative rock scene. Although guitarist Pearlman managed to keep Beat Of The Earth together for much of the remainder of the '60s, it is fair to say that no more "proper" recordings were made, although Pearlman continued to add to his personal collection of studio recordings, drafting in new musicians for impromptu after-hours recording sessions arranged at short notice. Another fascinating psych album from a true musical innovator. 

Members: Phil Pearlman, Karen Darby, Ron Collins, J.R. Nichols, 
Phil Phillips, Sherry Phillips

Bem, baseado nos meus parcos conhecimentos, não sei de ter existido conjunto algum q, em pleno 1967, compunha uma suite q ocupava o disco todo. Isso é progressivo, raro, inovador!
Q viagem!
Muito obrigado!
