The Fort Mudge Memorial Dump - S/T (1970 US Promo) | Heavy Psych | Vinyl Stream

This morning we're spinning the 1970 US promo pressing of the self-titled Fort Mudge Memorial Dump album on Mercury SR-61256. This is a gatefold Unipak sleeve with white promo labels - a one and done record from a band out of Walpole, Massachusetts that most people have never heard of and should have. They got lumped into the Bosstown Sound with Ultimate Spinach and the Beacon Street Union, but this record has more in common with the San Francisco acid scene than anything coming out of Boston at the time. Vocalist Caroline Stratton is the centerpiece - think Grace Slick with more grit. Guitarist Dan Keady is jazzy and fuzz-soaked at the same time. The album closes with "The Singer" - nearly eight minutes of proto-doom that sounds like it was recorded fifteen years ahead of its time.
