Ripple Music — Scant Amount of Rare Limited Edition LP’s Recently Found

Ripple Music Limited Edition LP’s tend to sell out in minutes (like the Mothership II Cosmic Edition which was cleaned out completely in 15 minutes).  But every once in a while we discover a few in the warehouse and that becomes your opportunity to get in before they’re all gone.  Not all Limited Editions are available (once they’re sold out–they’re out).  But we do have these gorgeous slabs of vinyl in very scant quantities available in the Ripple Store now.

You can find all these beauts, and more at the Ripple Music webstore:  www.ripple-music.com

A conceptual album that mixes animal aggression and technical precision, APE MACHINE’s Mangled By The Machine carries an organic depth and warmth rarely heard since the time of rock’s glorious early years, and infused with an exceptional modern sensibility. When the mystical lyrics lock in with the band’s stone-cold groove, APE MACHINE demonstrates an earth-shaking ability to rock. A true four-piece, the group has been called real heavy-psych for the iPhone generation that delivers true guts and glory rock and roll.

.S. Rock is the second release from the mighty Poobah (originally released in 1976) and the also the second to be re-issued by Ripple Music. The album features ten tracks in the original running order, remastered by T. Dallas Reed at HeavyHead Studios. This is the first time that this album has seen the light of day in almost forty years and the CD edition features four bonus tracks, including a blistering live rendition of “Steamroller”.
