Mad River - Mad River

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON CAPITOL 1968

Capitol ST 2985 made in UK.

Vinyl NM. Cover EX.

By far the most ominous-sounding of the Bay Area’s 1960s psychedelic bands, the music of Berkeley’s Mad River comes across like a spiraling, acid-spiked descent into hell. With a raw, garagey style marked by Lawrence Hammond’s quavering vocals and the interlocking exchanges of guitarists David Robinson and Rick Bockner, Mad River’s sound conjures a darker, more menacing version of Quicksilver Messenger Service or early Country Joe and The Fish. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_River_(band)
