about

"The Outer Limits" is the advance single from the upcoming reissue release of the 3rd LP by Art Jackson's Atrocity, 1977's TRIBUTE TO SUN RA. This preview is a rare club performance recorded in 1976 at the Spot Me A Five Club in East St. Louis, just prior to the album’s official studio sessions. The title gets its name from guitarist Jackson's otherworldly fret work, which recalls the mysterious allure of the namesake 60s TV show's musical cues. This single's b-side, on the other hand, is a recently unearthed recording from the 1974 GOUT sessions. It's a 20-minute long alternate take of "Tomato Reign" - a mind-numbingly chaotic "GOUTTAKE" (not included on the upcoming TRIBUTE TO SUN RA LP). The free-form noise crowd might appreciate... or not.

Many mistakenly carbon date the music of GOUT because of its modern post-production. THIS recording, from 1974, is more illustrative of the band's raw, spontaneous 70's sound. Without the post. Almost 30 minutes of previously unheard Art Jackson's Atrocity.

The Outer Limits (Live At The Spot Me A Five Club, 1976) (8:52)
GOUTTAKE (Tomato Reign Tk 2/1977 Remix) (Non-LP B-Side) (20:10)
