New Fifty Foot Hose CD



http://anthologyrecordings.com/release.asp?album=FOgIMVzZlkK

Recorded: live on March 16, 2003 at the Beta Lounge in San Francisco

In 1967, San Francisco’s Fifty Foot Hose were certainly one of the innovators of a sound that took Psychedelia to new heights and was captured on the band’s one record, Cauldron. They are a totally unique hybrid—on one hand pulsating bay area acid rock, on the other, fractured electronic freakery, becoming one whole cohesive being. The sci-fi-ish video game-like artwork hinted at the sounds within, as did the Limelight label’s pedigree for truly progressive sounds. Band leader, Cork Marcheschi, used homemade electronic devices to create crude and experimental soundscapes and instrumental compositions that were sprinkled throughout the album.

Often starting shows with a swelling rumble that exploded into the first song, they soon developed a rabid following on the SF scene, though there was the occasional totally wrong gig, like when a very-pregnant Nancy had to perform at a Catholic Girls’ school! Still, the group wowed the crowds, performing with greats like Chuck Berry and Fairport Convention.

I've been a big fan of your musical adventures with The Magic Band, Mallard and French, Frith, Kaiser & Thompson. City of Refuge is a truly amazing recording and a high point in your fascinating musical journey. Much love & respect,  j.d.

I also enjoyed your interview on in protest of boredom. Glad you're making music. Cool interview on the Beefheart revue DVD also. You know, the one we're you're talking on a phone in a tree. Who's idea was that? Anyhow, best regards Drumbo.

Hi John! I really enjoyed listening to your interview on the 'In Protest Of Boredom' myspace page. I was particularly fascinated by your experiences during the making of Trout Mask Replica - no wonder you have written a book about it! What an incredible thing to go through, all in the name of art! I love the end result of course but i do find the conditions under which the record was made slightly disturbing, to say the least! All the best and i can't wait to read your book!

Hi John,
I’ve been a devoted fan of yours and your drumming since I first heard you play in 1968. Now (and since sometime in 2003) I can add that I’m a devoted fan of your singing, drumming, composing, lyric writing, arranging and bandleading.
I love your new album “City Of Refuge”.
The compositions, the sound of the recording, the playing and singing from you and that amazing band you put together are all perfect and brilliant. Your touring band sounds really fantastic too.
Thanks for the great and inspirational music!
Sincerely,
Mike Hamilton
