ESTES BROTHERS "Transitions" CD
"Transitions" by Estes Brothers is one of the rarest US private pressings and truly a heavy- psych masterpiece. It was released in Ohio in 1971 and original copies are nearly impossible to find, only 100 were made. The album has been re-issued by legendary Rockadelic Records in the 1990s on vinyl and by WIS on CD (WIS-1013) in 2002.
Six longer album cuts from 4-9 minutes express intense, atmospheric and epic movements, stunning guitarwork and the typical haunted blues hardrock blend of the early 70s. The main influences are British 70s rock heroes and US- Westcoast acid/jam rock in the vains of Quicksilver Messenger Service.
The quartet further recorded one 45 record "Tomorrow ́s Sunlight/Yesterdays Blues" - this edition is the complete discography of the Estes Brothers, presented with the original cover artwork, photos and historical background. On the CD issue, you ́ll find five extra-bonustracks, live and home recordings from a later period of the group.
CD, 5 bonustracks, 12 pages booklet, jewel case, limited edition of 500 copies
