DESCRIPTION: Official reissue vinyl edition of this oft-sampled slab of Bay Area history, a psych funk masterpiece that cannot be denied. An interracial band, Aura formed in 1974 and played extensively throughout Northern California. By 1976, the band recorded their first and only album at Pacific Recording Studio in San Mateo, issued the following year. The original title of the album was meant to be Sativa, but out of fear that promoting the joys of marijuana would be too controversial, the band omitted the title and just left it as Aura. Over the ensuing decades, the Aura album has grown in stature to become a major soul/funk collector's item. It features a number of major funk tracks plus funky ballads with female vocals. Standouts include Sativa (replete with water-pipe sound effects and blistering guitar), and the manic fuzz-guitar jam Skyrocket. Comes housed in an old style tip-on jacket and quality limited edition vinyl pressing, mastered from the original tapes. Some of you garage psych majors may already be familiar with lead guitarist Eddie Weiss, for those who aren't, he is the very same who played with Chicago's pop psych band The Lemon Drops back in the 60s. )........
