'Beyond The Black Crack' was the concept of Reverend Dwight Frizzell, a musician, film maker, doctor of Metaphysics and minister in the Universal Church of Life. It remains a little known classic, and one of the most unique listening experiences in modern experimental music. Recorded between 1974 and 1976 in locations as diverse as factories, the pyramid opposite Harry Truman's grave site and more 'conventional' concert settings. The music provides a dark, dizzying and exhilarating journey through free jazz, electronics and environmental sound, all shattered by Frizzell's radical tape editing. This 40th anniversary LP reissue was remastered from the tapes, includes a 4-page booklet with photos from the time, and was pressed in a numbered edition of 500 copies.
