Popped by Third Man records in Detroit to drop off some surprises for the new release and these are looking really good
Images of Life is the career-spanning, 3xLP retrospective boxset illuminating the staggering breadth and depth of Detroit’s unheralded songwriting genius, Ted Lucas. Available for pre-order now via link in bio.
Disc one “Strange Mysterious Sounds (1965-1970)” highlights Ted’s flirtation with psychedelic major label clout via his bands the Spike Drivers, the Misty Wizards and the Horny Toads. “Rainy Days (1970-1974)” will be the solo acoustic warmth and charm most familiar to folks already aware of Ted’s self- titled “OM” album from 1975. “Impossible Love (1979)” the lost second Album finds Ted smooth and nearly “yacht rock” while never betraying the true artistry and craft of the once-in-a-generation talent of Ted Lucas. The 3xLP boxset arrives from Third Man Records on May 22nd. Images of Life – Third Man Records – Official Store Here's a new interview with Ben Blackwell from Third Man.

If you haven't heard the news we finally signed with Third Man records to release Teds music. We are thrilled to announce this new collaboration which will bring Teds previously unreleased catalog of to the fans. The 1st release is a reissue of Teds album ( The Om album) available today in standard black and limited edition green vinyl (already sold out according to the Third Man website). In addition we have released 4 previously unreleased tracks of Teds on Spotify and this previously unseen video of Teds we've dubbed the electric twins. Enjoy and thank you to the fans. We received this lovely cover of It's So Easy from Sam P Well now that we have time I can share these videos from the November 2018 release party at Trinosophes...there are 6 altogether...most are self explanatory and from the album but this little gem needs a bit of explanation. It was previously released in 1970 on a locally produced compilation album called the Detroit Folk Scene. We think Detroit favorite Ron Coden does a terrific job. Special thanks to Mike Dutkewych for recording these performances. |
