Gary Higgins - Red Hash (Vinyl LP)

1973: Connecticut native Gary Higgins and his friends record RED HASH and release it on Gary’s own Nufusmoon Records. Following the release, legal issues halt all promotion and sales, rendering the small pressing of RED HASH a hotly-rumored and much sought-after “lost” album of rock and roll lore.

2005: Drag City is honored to present the first-ever authorized reissue of Gary Higgins’ acid-folk gem RED HASH — mastered from the original master tapes with two previously unheard bonus tracks. The reviews are glowing: the haunting sound of Gary’s meticulously arranged folk-pop is a sound that everyone can relate to, and RED
HASH makes many year-end lists around the world as Top Reissue.

2007: What do you mean, we forgot to make a vinyl version of RED HASH in 2005? Really? Well, let’s not wait another minute, we might forget again…

And so, after thirty-five years, RED HASH vinyl is back in stock, with a limited-edition LP that includes a 7” single featuring the first-ever vinyl pressing of the CD bonus songs “Don’t Ya Know” and “Last Great Sperm Whale.”

This is your chance to grab at a letter-perfect reproduction of a folk-rock classic from the early 1970s. Don’t space it — score yourself a copy of RED HASH in February 2008.
