An official reissue of a cult classic long sought after by fans of world music, library music, and electronic music. Mort Garson was a prominent figure in the music world, active as a session musician since the postwar era, writing lounge hits, and in 1969 crafting lavish arrangements for the background music in footage of the U.S. moon landing and for songs by Doris Day. This album, representing his work after he encountered Robert Moog and his synthesizer in 1976 and became captivated by it, was originally released as a novelty record—an exclusive bonus available only to customers who purchased houseplants at a store called Mother Earth on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles or a Simmons mattress at a Sears outlet. Over time, it has become a masterpiece of early electronic music that is constantly sought after by collectors. The psychedelic and dreamy arrangements, the idyllic and nostalgic soundscape unique to the Moog and rhythm box, and the charming concept—it’s simply perfect. (Original Japanese text by AYAM)
