''Where The Pyramid Meets The Eye: A Tribute to Roky Erickson'' is a 1990 tribute album to singer-songwriter Roky Erickson, founder of the 13th Floor Elevators and solo artist, whose career has been subject to significant periods of challenge from schizophrenia. The album was released by Sire Records in the United States, and by WEA International in Europe.〔Discogs (Listing of Release Versions ); www.discogs.com.〕 The album was produced by Bill Bentley, who also produced a 1999 tribute album to Moby Grape co-founder Skip Spence, 〔''More Oar: A Tribute to the Skip Spence Album'' (Birdman Records)〕 who, like Erickson, was subject to the challenges of schizophrenia. The album was produced with the intention of raising money for Erickson and exposing his music to a wider audience. As noted by reviewer Mark Deming, "...there are a several moments of very real beauty and power here, especially from the artists who share Erickson's Texas heritage — Doug Sahm and ZZ Top rock out on their contributions, the Butthole Surfers' version of 'Earthquake' is one of their finest moments on wax, and T-Bone Burnett's take on 'Nothing in Return' is a heart-tugging gem."〔Mark Deming, (Review of ''Where The Pyramid Meets The Eye: A Tribute To Roky Erickson'' ); www.allmusic.com.〕 The album's title is said to be Erickson's definition of psychedelic music.〔See Roky Erickson.〕 ==Track Listing== #Reverberation (Doubt) - ZZ Top #If You Have Ghosts - John Wesley Harding & The Good Liars #I Had to Tell You - Poi Dog Pondering #She Lives (In a Time of Her Own) - Judybats #Slip Inside This House - Primal Scream #You Don't Love Me Yet - Bongwater #I Have Always Been Here Before - Julian Cope #You're Gonna Miss Me - Doug Sahm & Sons #It's a Cold Night For Alligators - Southern Pacific #Fire Engine - Richard Lloyd #Bermuda - Vibrating Egg #I Walked With a Zombie - R.E.M. #Earthquake - Butthole Surfers #Don't Slander Me - Lou Ann Barton #Red Temple Prayer (Two Headed Dog) - Sister Double Happiness #Burn the Flames - Thin White Rope #Postures (Leave Your Body Behind) - Chris Thomas〔Now known professionally as Chris Thomas King.〕 featuring Tabby Thomas #Nothing in Return - T-Bone Burnett #Reverberation (Doubt) - The Jesus and Mary Chain The cassette version of the album contains three extra tracks: We Sell Soul by Lyres, White Faces by Angry Samoans, and Splash #1 by The Mighty Lemon Drops. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Where the Pyramid Meets the Eye: A Tribute to Roky Erickson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
