2014 two CD pressing. LIVE EVOLUTION LOST: The 13th Floor Elevators LIVE AT THE HOUSTON MUSIC THEATER is the first ever release of the complete performance of the band's legendary show from 18th February 1967. The Elevators followed their own spiritual cosmic route searching for a new path to enlightenment whilst all the while creating a reputation for excess. The band developed a sound that merged garage-punk and psychedelic experimentation. This two CD media-book edition catches the band with it's classic line-up before the release of EASTER EVERYWHERE and is the only known complete recording of an Elevators' gig, and the latest to survive. Put together by band expert Paul Drummond, who also contributes extensive liner notes and mastered by Sonic Boom (Spacemen 3), this release also includes one reel unissued for over 45 years.
A five-star rating for it's historic significance the stellar job on the exquisite packaging. Looks to be an expanded 2-CD reissue of the live 'Levitation' CD put out sometime ago from the TFE gig at the Houston Music Theatre on February 18, 1967. Tunes I couldn't get enough of were the awesome opener "(I've Got) Levitation", one of their -better known- songs "Fire Engine", "Splash 1", definitely the band's best known cut "..
