The Black Sun Ensemble - Whirpool Ocean [CD] "First time on vinyl for these incendiary hard psych rock tracks, which made their only other appearance in Australia in 1999 on CD as part of the Sky Pilot compilation released by Camera Obscura Records. With each passing year since his death, the intense and inspiring musical legacy of Jesus Acedo is in danger of slipping into darkness. That's where Lion Productions come in -- together with Rich Hopkins and San Jacinto Records -- to keep the Lambent Flame burning, so to speak. All of the music on Whirlpool Ocean originates from the troubled and bizarre sessions for the album Acedo made under the name Black Sun Legion -- and then destroyed, when his struggles with schizophrenia overwhelmed him. Fortunately, Hopkins had the masters, or this album would not exist today, and some of Acedo's most brilliant music would be lost. Happily, not the case. Lion Productions have this album and other recordings of Acedo's through which to remember and admire his genius." Show more
