0072 - The 13th Floor Elevators - The Psychedelic Sounds Of The 13th Floor 
Elevators - 1966

Label: International Artists
Producer: Lelan Rogers
Art direction: John Cleveland
Nationality: USA

Hailing from Austin, Texas, the Elevators had already played shows in San 
Francisco, before the psychedelic movement there came to prominence. 
Thereafter, they had to be threatened with contact suspension to get them 
to Austin to record what would be the first acid rock album. It sold 
surprisingly well, due partly to the success of an already released single, the 
classic garage sneer "You're Gonna Miss Me," which made it No. 55 on the 
Billboard charts.
Openly promoting the benefits of hallucinogenics in the album's sleevenotes 
was never going to endear the band to the authorities; Texan police officers 
even dismantled the band's gear to search for drugs. "The Quest for pure 
sanity... forms the basis of the songs on this album," according to the back 
cover, but the brand of garage rock and R&B contained here is anything but 
sane. "Reverberation (Doubt)" and "Tried To Hide" are intense rockers, while 
"Roller Coaster" and "Fire Engine" have a dark, eerie quality to them. 
Frontman Roky Erickson yelps and howls like a man possessed while the alien 
sounds from Tommy Hall's electric jug add to the already gorgeously skewed 
mood.
The Elevators burnt out quickly, and Erickson has pursued an erratic (though 
intermittently brilliant) solo career since. But the band's legend lives on, partly 
through covers by bands such as Spacemen 3 and most notably, Primal 
Scream, who memorably reworked "Slip Inside This House" (from the Elevatos' 
sophomore "Easter Everywhere) on "Screamadelica." (AET)

Die Elevators aus Austin (Texas) traten bereits in San Francisco auf, bevor 
dort Psychedelisches angesagt war. Danach mußte man ihnen mit 
Vertragsauflösung drohen, damit sie sich nach Austin begaben, um eine LP 
einzuspielen - das erste Acid-Rock-Album aller Zeiten. Es verkaufte sich 
erstaunlich gut, bedingt durch den Erfolg einer bereits veröffentlichten 
Single, dem Garage-Klassiker "You're Gonna Miss Me".
Lobeshymnen auf halluzinogene Substanzen in den Liner Notes brachten der 
Band wenig positives Feedback von offizieller Seite. Die texanische Polizei 
nahm die gesamte Anlage der Band auf der Suche nach Drogen auseinander. 
"Das Streben nach purer Vernunft... ist die Basis für die Songs auf diesem 
Album" - so stand es auf der Rückseite des Covers, aber die Mischung aus 
Garage-Rock und R&B auf dieser LP ist alles andere als vernünftig. 
"Revebeartion (Doubt)" und "Tried To Hide" sind intensiver Rock, "Roller 
Coaster" und "Fire Engine" klingen düster und unheimlich. Sänger Roky 
Erickson schreit und heult wie ein Besessener, während außerirdische Töne 
von Tommy Halls elektrisch verstärktem Krug (ein Ersatz für den sperrigen 
Kontrabass) die bereits prächtig verdrehte Stimmung weiter anheizen.
Die Elevators waren schnell ausgebrannt. Erickson versuchte eine chaotische, 
streckenweise brillante Solokarriere. Aber die Legende der Band lebt weiter, 
wie bei Primal Scream, die eine denkwürdige Coverversion von "Slip Inside 
This House" (von der LP "Easter Everywhere) auf "Screamadelica" 
herausbrachte. (AET)
