(Psychodelic) Danny Ben Israel - Bullshit 3 1/4 - 1970, MP3 (tracks), 320 kbps

First track "A different Song" has, like the title implicates, a very individual, avant garde psych sound. The next couple tracks however are more or less “more common” freak out psych. Theses are in an improvisational way, with recognisable freak-out patterns and rhythms. That part of the album is good too, but it’s not as avant-psych. Not understanding the strange language puts off here and there a bit too, because words seems to have some leading importance in some tracks (especially in "Danny Bottle neck"). Therefore the middle part of this album also might need some more time to fully appreciate, as it did with me. "Israel 70" is the second avant-psychedelic track, with a chaotic underlying weirdness coming to the front again. Some parts of this kind of oddity reminded
me of the early Sisa ; there it was used it for humorous amusement, while here it might be ground breaking from a more intellectual viewpoint, complete with a collage of sounds. In its length and free approach, reminding of early Sorrenti a bit, without as much contrasting bunch of ideas. I found his second album much more appealing at first hearing.
G.K. : “Very mysterious character, Ben-Israel came out of a total mainstream background of an army band, musicals etc. but exposure to drugs and to Rock music had changed him totally and caused him to record some of the wildest and most psychedelic tracks ever recorded in Israel, the lyrics are highly important and very blatant dealing mostly with drugs, hippie counterculture but mostly with the wish for freedom from all. Ben-Israel had been experimenting to the extreme with all available studio possibilities of the time, no other Israeli album sounds like this!”
