Major Arcana = LP = (LP)
A rare and sought after private press that came out of the small but heady scene of 1970s Milwaukee. Led by Jim Spencer - who was a major player in the Wisconsin underground both as a musician and a writer/publisher of counterculture magazines, including Freek - Major Arcana released this lone LP in 1975. Generating comparisons to Pearls Before Swine and, of course, the man himself, Bob Dylan, Major Arcana benefits from subtle musicianship and arrangements, and quality songwriting. Covering ground from folk, to hippie tinged pop, to jazz, to blues-rock, the album is held together by Spencer's distinct voice and poetic spirit. A classic piece of the 1970s hippie underground that fetches serious coin at auction is available again for less than an arm and a leg.
