Obscure psychedelic folk singer Linda Perhacs released her only album, “Parallelograms,” in 1970 to scant notice or sales.
It was rediscovered with new weird america and the revival of psych folk. Consequently, it was expanded and re-released in 2005.
After 25 years away (many spent as dental technician), Perhacs is currently working on her second album. After being rediscovered, she collaborated with devoted fan and folk hero, Devendra Banhart, on his song Freely. She is reportedly collaborating on new songs with Devendra for her new album.

Gorgeous, surreal melodies. I just "stumbled" upon her music and I couldn't believe how sophisticated and beautiful her work was.

oh, and avoid the 03 reissue taken off vinyl. later reissues taken off Linda's personal reel to reel tape sound much better.

why are so many ppl here talking about Devendra? Just because she did a song with him? Although there is something I really don't like about him in general...

Is there a single rip of Parallelograms on the internet that doesn't have those shitty mp3 artifacts in the background (shitty, quiet swirling sound typical of crappy mp3 rips)? All three I've heard have that problem, and it's getting frustrating. Has anyone bought it from an mp3 store and gotten good quality files?

I actually got nothing against Dev, but I really do think he's so off visually :D The worst is teens all over the world are crazy about him.

don't know what dodgy bootleg reissue you guys are talking about but the one i have on 'the wild places' is from tapes and sounds fantastic and hiss-free.

hm i guess this master was made from old mp3 :( What about the one re issued in 2003? discogs says it was done from a mint vinyl.

Amazing, but terribly hard to find. Currently waiting on CDBaby to re-stock, but for some reason I don't see it happening for a while (if ever).

Major laughs on "Chimacum Rain" when she starts singing "I'm spacing out." Go Linda!

bossanovakid: the original 200 EUR vinyl is muddly and full of hiss too. The album was poorly recorded back in 1970, or whenever it was.
