13th Floor Elevators Music Of The Spheres (Ltd. Ed. 9LP Box, 2011, Charly) NEW SEALED


Please Note:  This fantastic box set was purchased from Music Direct in April 2015.  The set was received with the shrink torn and taped in a couple of places, but not opened.  According to Discogs, the original release of this box set contains mis-pressings: Headstone LP is the Live In California LP and vice-versa.  I do not know if this set is part of that original 2011 release or was pressed later.


13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS Music Of The Spheres is an incredible 2011 UK Charley Records limited edition (only 3000 copies) box set containing eight remastered LPs and 1 x 10" EP. This stunning set is surely the ultimate for the psychedelic aficionado. So what do you get for your money? You get the legendary debut album 'Psychedelic Sounds Of' expanded to a double vinyl set featuring both mono and stereo mixes, 'Easter Everywhere', again in mono and stereo mixes, 'Bull Of The Woods' now expanded to include a set of contemporaneous rare singles and b-sides, a previously unreleased 11-track album entitled 'The Contact Sessions' which features a completely different set of mixes of tracks from the first album and a previously unreleased live set [recorded under the influence of LSD!], phew! Added to this is a wonderful 6-track 10", designed to recreate the original 'Sumet Sounds' acetate. The packaging is also of the same high caliber. All LPs are housed inside a 12" x 12" box with lift off lid and trippy "Zebra Man" lenticular image, a superb 12" x 12" 44-page book, three 8" x 8" lenticular prints of the first three albums' sleeves - and as a neat final touch - a numbered certificate.  A superb box set that is a must for any 13th Floor Elevators collector!
