IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY - GIRL WITH NO EYES


The nice folk at Hookah Records have announced that the "Girl With No Eyes" album, being released to support It's A Beautiful Day with David & Linda Laflamme and Rob Espinosa on their imminent UK tour, have arrived. Four astonishing tracks performed live in San Francisco in 1969. A review of a Test Pressing in the Berkeley Barb rated the album between Super Nifty and Awesome. The album has been pressed on classic heavy vinyl and will be available throughout the tour and by mail order and via Amazon in the UK.

The album sells for £14 including postage and packing by mail order but only £10 at the shows themselves. Postage prices are becoming more and more expensive but we are seeing what we can do about distributing the record in the US and keeping postage as low as possible
