Here's the first ever reissue with faithful reproduction of the original homemade sleeve with pasted on stickers, fabulous remastered sound, insert with detailed liner notes and photos\/memorabilia plus download card. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003eTripsichord Music Box\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan\u003e emerged from the San Francisco's '60s psychedelic scene. Formed around \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrank Straight\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eDave Zandonatti\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eRandy Gordon\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, the group later expanded with singer-guitarist\/songwriter \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eBill Carr\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, whose arrival helped shape the band's fuller vocal and instrumental sound. Tripsichord's music stood apart from the typical San Francisco acid-rock formula. Their songs explored mystery, mortality and altered states, combining psychedelic textures with strong vocal harmonies and unexpected jazz influences. The band became closely associated with manager\/producer \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eMatthew Katz\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and the legendary Straight Theater on Haight Street, a key meeting point for San Francisco musicians. Tripsichord quickly established a reputation as a live act, performing throughout the West Coast. Their circle intersected with some of the most important musicians and events of the era, including the San Francisco psychedelic scene surrounding \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eJefferson Airplane\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eMoby Grape\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrateful Dead\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. With the addition of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eOliver McKinney\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e on organ and piano, Tripsichord recorded their sole LP in San Francisco, at a studio owned by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrancis Ford Coppola\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. The sessions allowed the musicians to experiment with guitar effects, arrangements and psychedelic textures. The album was initially released in 1970 as a promotional \"homemade\" edition on Katz's San Francisco Sound label, housed in a white blank sleeve with dayglo stickers on front and back. This was very limited and it's now one the holy grails of the first psychedelic era. It was later issued by Janus Records in a new cover design, credited simply to Tripsichord. Today, the record is regarded as a fascinating document of West Coast\/acid-rock psychedelia. Featuring newly remastered sound by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eEzra Lesser\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.
