Cromagnon - Cave Rock

For the first time: Remastered from the 1969 Original Master Tapes. Released in conjunction with ESP-Disk Records and with unequivocal permission of the remaining original band members. Contains the first documented chronicle of the origins of Cromagnon including the Story Song technique, band member history, experimental recording process and unpublished photos. Lovingly reissued on high quality audiophile vinyl pressed at RTI and housed in heavy duty old style cardboard jackets. Originally released in 1969, Cromagnon’s “Cave Rock” strings together a patchwork of untamed sounds and mental images which perfectly articulate the boundary-breaking psychedelic revolution that was occurring at the time – musically and socially. Widely heralded as the best freak-out record of all time, Cromagnon’s “Cave Rock” is a captivating experience that engages the listener.

The album surpassed even the most outthere psychedelia of its day, predicting what would soon become the disjointed aural landscapes of Faust and the violent scuzz of Throbbing Gristle. Vivid elements of Cromagnon’s influence continues to shine in the lysergic rhythms of the Sun City Girls, Nurse With Wound, Ghost, and Animal Collective.
