The Bonniwell Music Machine - Self Titled (1968) | Los Angeles Garage Psych | Full Vinyl Rip

Ripped from my copy of The Bonniwell Music Machine (Warner Bros. Records - WS 1732, Warner Bros.-Seven Arts Records - WS 1732, US 1968 Terre Haute Pressing). Before this record, the band was known as The Music Machine and broke through with the garage-psych classic 'Talk Talk' in 1966 - a track that has shown up on countless comps. By 1968 Sean Bonniwell rebranded the group as The Bonniwell Music Machine, and with most of the original lineup gone, this plays like a different band under his direction. For me, this album hasa few standouts. “Astrologically Incompatible", Double Yellow Line", & “Soul Love,” all strong garage-psych tracks with Bonniwell’s twisted edge. The centerpiece “The Eagle Never Hunts the Fly” ties it all together with fuzz, attitude, and a heavy bottom end. Not every track lands, but even the weaker moments are interesting, and Bonniwell’s vision keeps it compelling. It might not hit me quite as hard as the debut, but the best parts of this LP are excellent and make it well worth hearing if you’re into raw garage psych with a darker streak. 📷 More vinyl on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vinyl_piper/ 🎧 Full Vinyl Rips Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj0yF7-9YQ9pEOi1yCUyAZikNmWVdz8Hn Tracklist with timestamps: 00:00 - Astrologically Incompatible 02:36 - Double Yellow Line 04:43 - The Day Today 07:31 - Absolutely Positively 09:41 - Somethin Hurtin On Me 12:41 - The Trap 15:10 - Soul Love 18:37 - Bottom Of The Soul 20:34 - Talk Me Down 23:24 - The Eagle Never Hunts The Fly 25:07 - I’ve Loved You 27:51 - Affirmative No 29:54 - Discrepancy 32:25 - Me, Myself, And I #TheBonniwellMusicMachine #TheMusicMachine #TalkTalk #GaragePsych #PsychedelicRock #1968Vinyl #LosAngelesPsych #RareVinyl #VinylRip #VinylCommunity #VinylCollector #VinylPiper
