One of the more obscure and mysterious releases in the classic Takoma cannon. Out there, Bay Area hippie-improv jazz canoodlings. Woodwind, bass and echo-driven. All instruments played by Mr. Yost. Biographically, I've found next to nothing about him, online. 320 Vinyl rip by yours truly. Big thanks to D.

Out there, indeed! Thank you, Nick. If tonight's anything like last night (heat & hail, massive rains, tornado warnings, etc..), this will be a perfect soundtrack.
really digging this one a whole lot. thanks a ton friend.
Great stuff. Great blog.
Not really what I would expect from Takoma, but really interesting nontheless. Thanks for the chance to hear it.
looks out there.
and that's where it's at.
thanks
Just found this blog! Awesome!
I found it searching for the Pyx OST, is there any chance you would re-up that one for me? Would love to have it@
Very cool, especially the two title tracks. Thanks for unburying this treasure, matey
Oh baby, far out... thanks, Ghost!
Many thanks! More proof you can't go wrong with Takoma. This kind of reminds me of a more psychedelic Third Ear Band. Now why won't Fantasy or whoever owns the rights to the Takoma catalogue make all these recordings available?
Never heard of this. Looking forward to hearing it. Many thanks!

Thanks. His 2nd LP is apparently even more interesting - "Fog-hat Ramble".
Dead link! Looks like a suspended account!
I hope back file soon!
Thanks
