• Track Listing

Percussionist extraordinaire and member of the infamous "Wrecking Crew," Emil Richards was at the crucible of ’60s pop and film music, playing on everything from the Beach Boys’ Good Vibrations to Jerry Goldsmith’s Planet of the Apes soundtrack. Less known, but utterly essential, are Emil’s own recordings of technicolor jazz/early electronica! This collection presents his 1967 LP New Sound Element: Stones—a revelation of absurd psychedelic proto-popcorn-pop delirium delivered on clavinet, mallets and Moog—plus a number of tracks from his previous 1967 release New Time Element and his rare and mystical 1968 effort Journey To Bliss in its entirety! Remastered from the original master tapes and presented with new notes, original LP notes and rare photos. Plug in and freak out! Omni.
