Bootleg-style anthology of absolutely mind-warping outtakes and lost Hills recordings accompanying the Cardinal Fuzz/Sky Lantern reissue of the band's first, self-titled album! By no means some lackluster odd-and-sods collection, this is top-shelf Hills with a few exciting surprises tossed in to spice up the brew. Available as both a limited, double-LP set with the self-titled album as well as a stand-alone release with screen-printed artwork by Nik Rayne.
Dave from Cardinal Fuzz writes: "When going over the ideas for this repressing it was mentioned to the band how it would be great to make the bonus track on the CD version of this self-titled release, "Schlaraffenland," on a special bonus LP. Not only were the band really into this idea, they also dug through their archives of recordings to find more tracks that have never seen the light of day and which are just incredible. These are now available and are presented here in a special hand screened bootleg style sleeve, limited to 175 copies worldwide."

Holy smoke. One of the finest contemporary psych albums I've heard. Like an acoustic Annexus Quam meets Popul Vuh circa Brüder des Schattens meets Amon Düül circa Paradieswärts Düül meets traditional musicians from rural Iran playing Fairport Convention's Matty Groves. Forward thinking heads from southern Arizona making music as authentic and transcendent as it comes. Mushroom Head
