OHO Okinawa CD 1974 U.S. progressive psychedelic trippy private press reissue

Description: Oho - Okinawa CD. Official reissue of this rare tripped-out progressive psychedelic rock private press record out of Baltimore circa 1974. This release features the entire original recording as it was meant to be, but was shortened for release back in 1974 due to the time constraints of the original vinyl format. Booklet includes liner notes and photos and original album artwork. The unique progressive style of Oho should appeal to fans of the Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart, Gentle Giant school of progressive music as well as those looking for something original and/or bizarre and daring. Were they musical geniuses or just completely zonked out on acid? Housed in glossy tri-fold digipak cover with 20-page booklet inside!

IILemon FlowersCorrective ShoesPale HippoSorryChess is BoringThe PlaguePress Quotes:OKINAWA is astonishingly full of weirdness that falls somewhere in Syd Barret-era Floydland: some psychedelia, some art noise, some bizarre theatricsbut all around inventive and well-crafted. -Ira Robbins, The Trouser Press Record Guide, USA OKINAWA is a weird pastiche of post-Zappa logic and Christopher Milk-like Anglo worship. The music is a combo of home-prog, dada-confused psych, and pot-stroked weirdness. Its a great album! - Byron, Forced Exposure #18, USAAn album of immense proportions. There is a plethora of great music here. There are jams in the progressive vein that really get up there in high gear, loads of analog keys, horn sections and most of all, complete zaniness. Its an excellent album really, so fascinating and extreme. -Mike McLatchey, Expose, USA An hour of this and youll be ready to be carried away to the tangerine jungle of marshmallow madness. - Greg Shaw, BOMP! USA OKINAWA is Sgt. Peppers for the advanced listener. Recommended to all who can release themselves from common sound structures and lend their ears to fantastic, almost avant-garde, progressive, varied and inspired 70s music. Dare to enjoy and take part in it! Honor those who deserve to be honored. OHO get the gold! - Hanf!, GermanyOKINAWA features, amongst other delights, a monumental piece entitled The Plague (after the Camus book). - Ptolemaic Terrascope, UKJust when you think youve heard and seen it all, here comes OHO with a collection of bona-fide weirdness from 1974. The band thrives on irreverence in an off-kilter style borrowing from the likes of Genesis, Gentle Giant, Zappa, the Allman Brothers and Jack Bruce (if you can imagine that). Then its all tossed together in a willy-nilly, slap-dash fashion that melds the best of spontaneous garage-rock with a Grateful Dead we-dont-know-where-were-going-next sensibility. Of course, its all in good fun, its got to be. Definitely, one of a kind. - John Collinge, Progression, USA --------------------------------------------------------------------- ROCKADROME has been shipping LPs and CDs for over 20 years, we know how to pack these items and we use professional quality cardboard mailers designed to keep items safe and secure.
