LULUS: Master Wilburn Burchette opens the gates into a meditative & deeply psychedelic/heavily trem-m-m-m-molo’d world of exploration into the human consciousness & the manners of which the mind transcends itself when propositioned with a transformative experience. He dubs it “A Transcendental Ballet for the Mind of God.” The vinyl record is accompanied by a full colour instruction book, which is suitably fitting for a height-of-the-hippie-era mail-order mystic who took out ads for his special services in publications with names like Beyond Reality, Gnostica News and Fate Magazine. Substantially equipped from a conceptual standpoint, the instrumentation reads much more minimally with the compositions featuring nothing but whirly-woo’s & some distinct open-tuning finger picking. He built a unique guitar and his own equipment with which to produce this album. Not dissimilar from fellow transcendental compatriots of the time a la Joe Meek’s ‘I Hear A New World’, Stockhausen or even the more experimental compositional work of the master John Fahey. Fr34ks & flacid ashbackers are most likely to experience high levels of euphoria when played loud and entranced. We leave you with the words of Master Wilburn himself: “This is real stereo! Be prepared to hear things you have never heard before! To eliminate the back void of emptiness I have used a background of ‘white sound’, much as a painter employs a white canvas, upon which to play my effects. Any background noises you may occasionally hear are far from imperfections of record production. They are part of the ‘white sound’ and as such enhance the total effect of the music. For best results, I advise listening with an open heart, a clear mind and good stereo equipment.”
