TERRY ALLEN - Gonna California - 7'' - Deluxe Gatefold Vinyl

7'' - Limited Deluxe Gatefold Vinyl. Limited to 500 copies.  

The first-ever release of the long-lost first-ever studio recordings by the internationally celebrated visual artist and iconoclastic musician whose work bridges the disparate worlds of contemporary art and country music. The deluxe gatefold 7" vinyl edition, limited to 500 copies, features recently rediscovered and restored early (and superior) mixes of both songs; a printed inner sleeve with original liner notes by Allen and an excerpt from the book; a lyrics insert; and Allen’s contemporaneous visual art in an arresting package.

Released in conjunction with the publication of Truckload of Art: The Life and Work of Terry Allen, by Brendan Greaves (New York: Hachette Books, 2024). Gonna California imagines an alternate reality where Allen's long-lost first studio recordings, captured with a full band in LA in 1968, saw a proper release.
