THE ELEVATORS WERE WAY AHEAD OF THE PSYCHEDELIC CURVE: ONLY THE BEATLES, THE BYRDS AND BOB DYLAN WERE RECORDING MATERIAL LIKE THIS IN EARLY 1966' MOJO
The Contact Sessions were the first studio recordings by the 13th Floor Elevators from January and February 1966 made in Texas for an album which never saw the light of day in those heady drug-filled days.
This release consists of Mono versions of the eleven original tracks, including the groundbreaking "You're Gonna Miss Me" and "Fire Engine", plus four remastered stereo alternative takes.
In addition to the studio material this package includes four previously unreleased live recordings from La Maison in 1966, including "We've Gotta Get Out Of This Place" and two other previously unreleased tracks.
The recordings were remastered and remixed in 2007 by the original producer Walt Andrus.
The packaging is presented in a luxury digibook limited edition of 5,000 copies, with a detailed 16 page booklet written by band expert Paul Drummond.
