New - Silver Apples - Contact - LP

Clear vinyl version. Color sleeve. Numbered edition #716 of 1000 copies.

French label Rotorelief presents a reissue of Silver Apples' second album Contact, originally released in 1969.

"Aside from Simeon's use of a banjo on a couple of tracks, the music on Contact does not differ from that of their debut. One aspect improved upon was the lyrics; many possess the same 'cosmic' element found on Silver Apples, but others are full of bitterness, pain, paranoia, and confusion. In turn, the lead oscillator is used to greater effect, reflecting this newfound intensity. Simeon, who composed the text for five of Contact's ten songs (he framed one song on Silver Apples, 'Dancing Gods'), was largely responsible for this change." --Bart Bealmear, AllMusic
