13th Floor Elevators
Rockius Of Levitatum (pd)
Repress! Picture disc LP. This collection of live tracks gives those of us who werent there during the halcyon days of psychedelia a taste of just what lofty heights (and hellish depths) the Elevators were capable of reaching. The material here is taken from three sources: 'Roller Coaster,' 'You're Gonna Miss Me' and 'Tried To Hide' from a rockin' appearance on a local Dallas/Ft. Worth television show in the spring of 1966, 'Don't Fall Down,' 'Kingdom Of Heaven,' 'She Lives In A Time Of Her Own' and 'I've Got Levitation' from a notoriously shambolic gig in Houston in 1967, and the remaining eight tracks from a series of stellar performances at San Francisco's Avalon Ballroom in autumn of 1966. SIDE 1: 1. Roller Coaster 2. You're Gonna Miss Me 3. Before You Accuse Me 4. Tried To Hide 5. Don't Fall Down 6. The Word 7. I'm Gonna Love You Too 8. You Don't Know SIDE 2: 1. Everybody Needs Somebody To Love 2. Splash 1 3. Monkey Island 4. Kingdom Of Heaven 5. Fire Engine 6. She Lives In A Time Of Her Own 7. I've Got Levitation
