Cherry Town - a vinyl album $20
In 1967, the same year as Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Cub Band by The Beatles and Pet Sounds by The beach Boys, Khazad Doom—six creative 16-year-old rock 'n' rollers from the north side of Chicago—recorded Cherry Town in a basement using only a 2-track recorder and a lot of wizardry. For years that tape sat in a vault until it was retrieved and re-mastered in 2009 by Steve Yates, former Khazad Doom organist. Then, leader Jack Eadon teamed up with Dennis Proulx, an illustrator, owner of Shangri-LA Studios in Quebec, to produce a vinyl album with an extensive songbook. It is now sold around the world.
