autosalvage “autosalvage”
from: autosalvage, 1968
1968 was dripping with grand sonic experiments like this one from New York City’s Autosalvage. It didn’t strike me as much when I was living with it in 1968, but as I revisit the sound, it hums with that time. The atmosphere: internal guitar solos, exploratory lyrical song forms, a freedom of risk. A theme song for the fun of musicianship. They didn’t have to make it big they were already a big.
