Negativland / Iron Butterfly / Music Emporium (Test Stream) | Psych & Copyright | Vinyl Stream

For tonight's trip this evening I'm testing tweaks to my setup with three records - Negativland's recalled U2 12" on SST, the original 1968 Iron Butterfly In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida on ATCO, and the Music Emporium "Nam Myo Ho Renge Kyo" 45 on Sentinel. Negativland U2 on SST 272 is the 1991 recalled pressing. Island Records and U2 sued SST for unauthorized sampling of "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" and an outtake from Casey Kasem's American Top 40. SST was ordered to destroy all copies. The lawsuit became a landmark case in copyright law and fair use doctrine. Surviving copies are collector pieces. Iron Butterfly In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida on ATCO SD 33-250 is the original 1968 pressing. The 17-minute title track takes up all of side two. Doug Ingle was trying to sing "In The Garden Of Eden" but slurred it and the name stuck. The album spent 140 weeks on the Billboard charts and sold over 30 million copies. One of the best-selling records in Atlantic's history. Music Emporium "Nam Myo Ho Renge Kyo" on Sentinel 4-501 is the original 1968 mono 45. Four classically trained musicians from UCLA and Long Beach State making psychedelic rock in Los Angeles. Bandleader Bill Casey Cosby was an accordion competition winner. The chant is a loose adaptation of a Nichiren Buddhist mantra. The full album followed in 300 copies in 1969 in a die-cut gatefold - originals sell for over $2,000 today. Three completely different corners of American underground music. Testing the new setup. Come hang.
