The Mysterians (Indian Arts of America P-3005) MINT vinyl. Comes with VG+ jacket with average ring and edge wear and has a small red sticker on the left side of the front cover (see scans).
12-track LP from New Mexico during the mid-1960s. I would guesstimate that this album came out circa 1966-'67, based on the sound and selections of songs. Musically it’s made up of solid Rockers, ear-bending Garage/Country Western, and cheesy Garage Lounge which switches between male and... female lead singer from track to track. The guy definitely rocks out (especially on “Money” and “Wooly Bully”), while the gal sounds like a pre-pubescent teen that might want to make use of auto-tuning (in particular on “This Boy” and “Angel Baby”). With that said, this is a very cool unknown and undocumented small label garage disc and it’s got a terrific overall sound and vibe.
Indian Arts Of America was a US label active in the early 60s, based out of Albuquerque, New Mexico. According to Discogs, they released 3 other LPs: The Wingate Valley Boys (R-3001), Frank Nelson-Sings New Squaw Dance Songs (A-3002), and the instrumental surf rockin’ Zuni Midnighters (R-3002). I would presume that there is one other undocumented LP (3004). I also can’t imagine there are many of these Indian Arts of America discs floating around which virtually never show up for sale. There is no mention of The Mysterians LP (P-3005) on Discogs so it's pretty darn elusive and I wasn't able to find anything else online about this record except a brief line mention in Acid Archives. So don't miss out since there's a good chance you may never see this LP offered again.
To get a feeling for the album, I’ll copy the caption under the band photo on the back cover:
The talents of the six Mysterians is no mystery once you’ve heard them. In order as pictured are: Bob Gray, Jack Braxton, Jim Natseway, Louie, Sidney and Lorraine Poolheco. The three Poolhecos are bothers and sister … raised in a beautiful little Hopi village, there three have performed together ever since they chould walk. Jim, a Sioux from Dakota now loves the Indian country of the West. Bob and Jack, not members of any Indian tribe, because of their unique “Mysteries” talents have now become adopted buy teen-agers of many Indian tribe.
Tracklist:Side One:1 This Boy2 Blue Blue Feelin’3 A Thousand Stars4 Money5 Release Me6 Honky Tonk
Side Two:1 Love’s Gonna Live Here2 Wooly Bully3 Lady Of A Thousand Dances4 Angel Baby5 Love Me Right6 Just Pickin’
