justen o'brien & jake Time Will Tell (180g vinyl LP, £21.25)

The greatest album in the history of North Dakota is Justen O'Brien and Jake's Time Will Tell (1978). Bootlegged twice already, Guerssen is proud to present the first artist-approved reissue of this mysterious, deep, UFO-inspired masterpiece. Featuring crystal-clear sound, the originally-intended cover art in gorgeous gatefold cover, in-depth liner notes by Douglas Mcgowan (Yoga Records), and never-before-seen photos capturing the mystique of this long-gone psych / prog / lounge classic, even longtime fans will need to check back in with Justen O'Brien's unique vision of the cosmos. A truly MAJOR left field rediscovery on a par with Bobb Trimble, Jade Stone and Luv, or DR Hooker. "The total effect is like driving around in late-night Minneapolis looking for some action, but instead ending up alone in an airport hotel lounge; a desolate 2-drink-minimum neon light trip of creeping originality" - Patrick Lundborg, The Acid Archives
