0:00On March 31, third-man records just drop word on a killer box set from cult guitarist Ted Lucas called images of life, hitting shelves, may. 22nd on vinyl and streaming. It's three full LPs packed with rare and unheard tracks. The first dives into his early bands from 1965 to 1970, the second. Los Solo demos leading up to his 1975 album and the third uncovers a lost 1979 record produced by Don Waz. You can stream the rainy days LP right now, giving fans an early taste while they wait for the full drop. Back in the late 60s, Lucas trained on CIDAR under Robbie Shankar himself and gigged as a Motown session player, but by 1975. Warner Bros. acts two of his bands and their boss, Mo Austin, passed on his solo demo. He pushed forward anyway, self-releasing those demos as the OM album, which third man expanded last year into Ted Lucas and even snagged best new, reissue honors.

1:02This box set shines a fresh light on his overlooked gyms, pulling together decades of psych folk magic that true collectors won't want to miss. Music news, powered by AI. This is Music News Today.
