After the first record by the Red Krayola (The Parable of Arable Land, thank you for the many downloads I had on that one) I want to tell you something about this record, their second. When The Parable of Arable Land was released, the Red Krayola immediately began recording Coconut Hotel, the album that was supposed to be their sophomore record. The record company, International Artists in this case, however, refused the album. I don't blame them by the way, because International Artists was a little, sympathetic label that released 13th Floor Elevators and other psychedelic bands, and Coconut Hotel sounds pretty much inaudible to most people I guess. Modern classical, as you will, but highly experimental, and totally inaccessible for the hippies of the time. And you thought Parable of Arable Land was an acquired taste?Anyway, this is the album they released instead of Coconut Hotel, and it sounds insanely fresh, to be fair: a lot fresher than The Parable of Arable Land.
listen to this
