MECKI MARK MEN - MECKI MARK MEN - Mecki Mark Men +2 - FRA Absinthe Expanded Limited Press - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 110,00 PLN / 27,50 EUR
An edition limited to 500 copies of the cult debut album, released at the end of 1967, by the legendary Swedish psychedelic band modelled on the early Jimi Hendrix Experience (especially the vocal) and The Doors - with a pinch of The Mothers Of Invention. It is top-shelf dark, psychedelic rock (with distant echoes of rhythm'n'blues) - surprisingly up to date at the time, and even ahead of American or British trends by a few months. In addition, two recordings from a very rare single. Excellent sound and great pressing. The laminated sleeve looks like the Swedish original. Highly recommended! New, sealed. (JL) -
MECKI MARK MEN - MECKI MARK MEN - Marathon +6 - FRA Lumpy Gravy Remastered Expanded Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
The Swedes' third album was recorded in 1970, but not released until 1971, on Sonet Records. The album is fairly varied, though on most tracks the band continues along the route set out on the second album - still very psychedelic, with its head in space, but at moments much heavier than before. In addition two great, improvised tracks from a concert and the second part of the Swedish mix of the second album. Highly recommended! (JL) -
MECKI MARK MEN - MECKI MARK MEN - Running In The Summer Night +5 - FRA Lumpy Gravy Remastered Expanded Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
Please do not be put off by the rustic cover! This album, recorded in Stockholm in 1969 and released only in the States in 1970, is heavy, strongly narcotic (but without clowning), psychedelic, at moments progressive rock from Sweden - of a very high shelf! This time the leader, playing Hammonds and singing in the manner of Hendrix, took on three former musicians of the excellent, psychedelic group Baby Grandmothers and the result was a genuinely great album - harking back to the style of Pink Floyd, Iron Butterfly, Hendrix, The Doors, Cream and very early Soft Machine. The record contains, among others, two longer, 8-10 minute mini-suites. For the first time on CD the American mix, released only on vinyl in 1970, is used. The previous CD edition (in a digipak) contained the unreleased Swedish mix and just two tracks from the USA. Now the Swedish mix has been split in half between the second and third albums. A must!

MECKI MARK MEN - MECKI MARK MEN - Mecki Mark Men +4 - FRA Lumpy Gravy Remastered Expanded Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
Released at the end of 1967, the cult debut album by the legendary Swedish psychedelic formation, modelled on the early Jimi Hendrix Experience (especially the vocal) and The Doors - with a pinch of The Mothers Of Invention. It is dark, psychedelic rock (with distant echoes of rhythm'n'blues) of the top shelf - surprisingly up to date at the time, and even ahead of American or British trends by several months. All three Mecki Mark Men albums are excellent, though they require a few listens! A must! (JL)
