breathe awhile

180 gram limited repress with deluxe heavy paste-on carton cover

Originally released in the UK in 1969 and perhaps most closely aligned with the heavier side of psychedelia, this obscure LP, originally released on Vogue in 1969, is a standard fixture on many a collector’s “most wanted” list. The intense 12-minute guitar and organ-driven opening track, “On My Way”, sets the album’s slow-burning epic tone. The whole album is high quality, with no stale moments, but highlights include “Poor Lady”, the 7 minute “Walk On the Bad Side”, and the 10-minute “Birth, Life and Death”. This reissue also includes two rare bonus tracks: “Sing My Song” and “Riding Alone”.
