V/A "Tickets For Doomsday: Heavy Psychedelic Funk & Soul Ballads and Dirges 1970-1975" LP

Tickets For Doomsday: Heavy Psychedelic Funk, Soul Ballads & Dirges is a collection of rare and sometimes barely-heard tracks. Pounding drums, scathing fuzz guitar and morose, contemplative lyrics will bring you up on a downer.

Doomsday's tracks are performed by prison funk ensembles, Indonesian hippies, Krautrock legends, Icelandic prog-rock bands and even Bay Area rap catalyst E-40’s uncle (the man to first distribute Master P’s No Limit Records), and the creator of this album’s title track, St. Charles “Chucky” Thurman.

Now-Again Records’ follow up to one of its most well-loved compilations, Forge Your Own Chains, with another batch of rare, largely uncompiled – and sometimes barely heard – heavy psych-rock and funk. Pounding drums, scathing fuzz guitar and morose, contemplative lyrics will bring you up on a downer.
