Ted Lucas' self-titled album, created in the early '70s, has been reissued after being a well-kept secret for decades. Initially recorded in his attic, the album was a combination of frustration and creativity during a challenging time in Lucas' career. Despite early rejection from labels, the album grew to become a cherished part of private-press folk music history, commanding high prices on the rare occasions it was available. Influential artists today cite Lucas' work as an inspiration, showcasing its lasting impact and charm. The recent reissue aims to share this enchanting music with a wider audience.
"After a half-dozen small editions during the last half-century, Lucas' only LP is, at last, permanently available thanks to Third Man Records."
"Its songs remain sweet, sad, and completely enchanting, capturing the idyllic psychedelia of the long afterglow of the lysergic '60s."
