THE MINISTER AND THE NUNS – When The Hearts Sings (Fe Records 1003 US 1966) M-/Ex
Still in shrink-wrap. Legendary and very rare deep Xian “psychedelic” private press record that defies description. Record by the American Rev. David Wayne Smith and the nuns of the Congregation of the Missionaries of Jesus the Crucified from Brazil and the results are like nothing else. Cool easy listing music mixed with tropical pop. The nuns singing with the surreal third eye lounge vocal styling of the minister and exotic cocktail musical styling catapults everything in to another psychedelic dimension. A feeling of the sounds of a lost era which actually never existed anywhere except on this platter. There has been references to both Eden Ahbez and the Yays and Nays which is not so far off.  Includes printed sheet with the previous untold story on the artist. Cover is Ex – still in shrink-wrap. has slight corner wear and discolouration under the shrink otherwise would have been M-
