Black Sheep/Daystar/Exile/Marionette/Onesimpletask/Paragon Council/Refugeve/Interval

The self titled debut album from the Detroit psychedelic rock group SRC (Scott Richardson Case). The single Black Sheep is considered a classic of the psych genre. (US:147)

“This is the Scott Richardson Case debut, an album that was ahead of it's time. The songs are atmospheric, melodic and the mood as a whole, ties the songs together very well. Very good vocal harmonies with 'far out' lyrics that are thought provoking and more intelligent sounding than the acid soaked lyrical content of their peers.”

“This album is quintessential 1968 with its magical lyrics and intense music. It's so fragile that you can't take it from its time without it falling apart. Lyrics reference literature, mythology, physics, metaphysics and mathematics.”

“The first thing that comes to mind about SRC's debut album is that the songs are all so very equal in quality. All are very special fuzzy psychedelic acid rockers, but none of them actually stand out as an ultimate highlight which I think is a good thing. The album has a pretty slow tempo which I enjoy a lot.”

“I remember the moment I heard Black Sheep that I had to search for this album and check it out. I'm absolutely glad that I did. SRC's self-titled debut is one hell of a package full of great psychedelic rock creamed with screaming fuzz guitar.”

“Pretty good acid rock, although this band's music isn't quite as hard as some others, but it still packs a punch. The emphasis is on the Hammond organ and acid guitar which are at the forefront in every track. The vocals are also very good, including even the occasional harmonies. Black Sheep is a fantastic psychedelic rocker with really menacing guitar, lots of distortion, and great Hammond guitar. Daystar is also very good, in the same vein as the opener. Marionette is much more subdued with guitar that is toned down and more good vocals.”

“Suffice it to say that this is one of the most delightful 60s psychedelic records that I have ever listened to. Searing superb scorching searching guitar wrapped around psych sound. This makes for fresh, urgent psych rock par excellence. Fine guitar, full of attitude.”
