Anaconda – Sympathy For the Madman
ANACONDA- sympathy for the madman (1969, uk)
Fmt: LP Ltd 500 sclp 003 3267784244526
post Arcadium psychedelic folk masterpiece, lost since 1969, just one original acetate LP
exists,valued at £7000+, the lp has an intense pagan mood and deals with themes of alienation,
notably in “Outsider”, it sounds very similar to Comus with flutes, violins but replaces the
insanity of Comus with dark folked out melancholia. Short at 24 mins. Quite possibly the
finest prog-folk lp ever made, with songwriting and lead vocal by Miguel Sergides who crafted
the psych lp masterpiece by Arcadium. Accomplished and meticulous prog folk genius
