Album Notes Fifty Foot Hose: Larry Evans (vocals, guitar); Nancy Blossom (vocals); David Blossom (guitar, piano); Terry Hansley (bass); Kim Kimsey (drums); Cork Marcheschi (electronic effects).British import reissue. In the annals of ’60s psychedelia, Fifty Foot Hose is a name that’s seldom mentioned. However, the group’s lone ’60s release CAULDRON, is one of the most visionary slabs of weirdness to emerge from the West Coast during the peace-and-love era. The sound is roughly equivalent to early Jefferson Airplane with Karlheinz Stockhausen sitting in on electronics. Cork Marcheschi operated a sea of homemade electronic instruments, and his background in “serious” electronic music sidesteps any feeling of gimmickry. Instead, the electronics take the band’s trippy, psychedelic rock to another level, often closer to avant garde art music than to the Bay Area sound. Nancy Blossom’s strong vocal presence and husband David Blossom’s freaky guitar style enliven songs that mix rock with ’60s weirdness and pure electronic invention, making CAULDRON one of the 1960’s.
