A.J. - Last song,first side,LP,1973,USA


Rare 1974 underground psych rock private press on the Black Walnut label. Primitive recording with fuzzy acid guitar and dark basement feel.A trio featuring the talents of bassist Lance Gessler, guitarist (and uncredited vocalist) Andrew Jay Goulart (we're guessing the band name came from his initals), and drummer Tom Arnold, its hard to know what to make of this effort. Released in miniscule quantities by the small Black Walnut label, 1973's "Last Song First Side" was apparently a self-financed ego project. With Goulart writing and producing all ten tracks (the liner notes actually listed four songs, though two of the titles consisted of multipart medleys), material such as "Feeling Down" and "Strange" proved surprisingly accomplished.

I know Jay Goulart - he played lead
guitar on two songs that I (Mike Smith) and drummer Ben Morales recorded at Jay's house in Gardnerville, NV, and produced by Prewitt Rose. Jay could do the Star Spangled Banner like Jimi. Are you out there, Jay?

Hello,
I've erased the "Windows sounds" from the 3rd medley-song of AG (AJF talked about above).
This is on this page :

J'ai viré les "sons Windows" qui parasitaient la 3e chanson-medley d'AG et dont parlait ci-dessus le commentateur AJF, vous pouvez récupérer tout ça à l'adresse ci-dessus.
Bonne continuation et encore merci pour tout à Mutant Sounds !
