"For those not familiar ,Ya Ho Wa 13, formed in 1973, are regarded as one of the most extreme, groundbreaking and influential psychedelic rock bands in history. The band released nine super rare LPs (and are rumored to have recorded sixty-five LPs worth) full of deep spiritual wisdom, tribal drums and distorted guitars, some of which were completely unrehearsed jam sessions, others which contained more conventional rock songs. Most were recorded after hours of meditation at 3:00-6:00 AM in a soundproofed garage that served as the musicians’ studio at the family’s communal residence. All of the records with Father Yod’s participation were completely improvised, with no rehearsals or overdubs and feature him on lead vocals and percussion, via a kettle drum. Most of their original music was pressed in small runs and are highly sought after collector’s items. The good folks at Sacred Bones Records have listened through hours and hours of this transformative music to bring you what is an absolutely essential compilation of some of their best songs." A brand new, most handsome example of this 2022 Source Family anthology limited to two hundred copies. Inventory Number: E000YHWSB
