Only 1020 pressed on clear maroon vinyl, and yes, it's pretty.
I don't think Ray knows how not to be an influential figure. Youth of today was influential to straight up straight edge hardcore, and then Shelter came along and influenced hardcore yet again. It was pretty surreal when Krishna consciousness was a prevalent topic at shows. The beads, they were everywhere. And the parking lot free food- that was a huge perk. Now Ray is this amazing sought after yogi. I have to hand it to him, he has the magic touch, excelling at whatever he puts his mind to. I sometimes have to stop and remind myself that he is just a man. He puts his pants on one leg at a time, and then rips them when he toe touches, just like the rest of us (Alive And Well Festival circa 1996?).
This record may be the most symbolically poignant item in my LP liquidation event. When bands like Shelter came on to the scene, it was the first time I was confronted about the materialistic way of life a lot of us, and those around us, lead. I liked the music, and I listened, but I didn't totally get it. I stopped moshing to listen to a Krishna parable at City Gardens, or wherever. And I still don't get any sort of theism, but the message that "you are not your stuff" is ingrained in me now. What happened to me was my adopted mother's partner died. She was deteriorating too, so I had to act on her behalf and clean out all of his lifetime's possessions. Then she died, and I had to do the same for her. Then this past April, my biological mother was taken by an aneurysm in the blink of an eye. So In six years, I have cleaned out the estates of 3 people. And I am just over being custodian to a house full of "stuff". I saw what happens to it in the end. It is someone else's burden. If I can find new homes for these things that I do, in fact, value, then I 'll be free of it. I can see more of the world without worrying about it. My loved ones won't be burdened with managing it all when I, too, am gone.
