By request: The Red Crayola. Read the full description.

Red_crayola_small This week's show begins and ends with sets from 1967, including an excerpt from an original mono pressing of one of the earliest lo-fi recordings ever made: the Red Crayola's Parable Of Arable Lands. Universally panned by the rock press when released, the album has since gone on to become a cult classic, and is considered one of the first examples of avant-garde psychedelic punk rock. Other highlights this week include a really long 1966 set, Neil Young's classic Cowgirl In The Sand, a rare mono pressing of Gypsy Eyes by the Jimi Hendrix Experience, Cher's version of the venerable Hey Joe and a seldom-heard track from the second 13th Floor Elevators album, Easter Everywhere.
