Perry Leopold - Experiment In Metaphysics - 1968,1969 (Philadelphia,PA)

The genesis of Acid-Folk! First LP of Perry Leopold and an incredible instrumental! LP: Experiment In Metaphysics From Acid Archives: "Experiment In Metaphysics" 1970 (WS 1) [300p] "Experiment In Metaphysics" 1995 (Psychedelic Archives, UK) [275p; altered cover; insert] "Experiment In Metaphysics" 1998 (CD Gear Fab gf-122) [+3 tracks] Legendary LP of twisted folkpsych/singer-songwriter crossover, like a Tim Hardin from hell. He has a great beatnik voice and plays acoustic guitar like noone before or since, the instrumental tracks are more psychedelic than ten layers of Sgt Pepper tape loops. The vocal stuff's even better, relating Perry's unique wisdom and outcast experiences. Some tracks go deep in a DR Hooker manner and all over this is an essential LP in my ears. Recorded in a basement studio beneath a Philly shoe store. The original came in a plain copper cover with small title sticker; not all copies have the sticker. The vinyl reissue has an insert with a photo of Perry with Bruce Springsteen! Good unreleased stuff from 1973 was issued in 2000 ("Christian Lucifer", Gear Fab/Comet). [PL] ~~~ Damaged solo coffeehouse folk. The "Metaphysics" LP is a dark folk classic. Aggressive, dark strumming with biblical, metaphysical concerns, and just plain lostness. Delicate high tenor vocals and torturous acoustic picking, even on the slower cuts. Depressing claustrophobic imagery and world weariness. The playing tends to wander, changing tempo and progressions but always retaining a sense of schizophrenic foreboding to match his vocals. "Cold in Philadelphia", a tale of living on the street, puts you right there with him. The last two songs, "When You're Gone" and "The U.S.S. Commercial", really puts it all together - good tunes to check out to. A thoroughly haunted recording. "Christian Lucifer", originally unreleased, continues his harrowing themes with an increasing concentration on religious imagery. He also recorded a less effective EP in the late 70s. [RM] Thanks for visiting the channel. Enjoy this incredible song!!!
