Fraction - "Moon Blood"
May 28, 2024 06:42AM
I sometimes listen to The Vinyl Guide podcast. The latest episode caught my attention since it covers the story behind an album called Moon Blood by a group called Fraction. I listened to the episode yesterday and thought the story was pretty interesting. This album is about to be reissued, but there were only 200 pressings of the original and it's apparently a holy grail among collectors. Here is the blurb about the episode:

The 1971 album "Moon Blood" by Fraction has fascinated record collectors for decades. The perfect intersection between great musicianship, intriguing backstory and supreme rarity, Fraction "Moon Blood" is now getting an official reissue through Riding Easy Records. Dillon Smith (Noble Records), Lance Barresi (Permanent Records) & Daniel Hall (Riding Easy) share the story of the legend.

Oh, and if you are curious what the music actually sounds like, you can find it on You Tube. I listened last night--not really my cup of tea, but worth hearing one time now that I know the story of the band and album.

It's also on Spotify - RidingEasy put it up a few months ago while they prep the vinyl.

Here's the pre-order link for Moonblood: https://www.ridingeasyrecs.com/product/fraction-moon-blood-splatter-version/

100 copies, splatter vinyl. Only...$75??? No thanks. It's not that goddamn good.

Maybe they'll reprint conventional vinyl later on.
