Epysode 24: "Gypsy People" by Jan & Lorraine.
Walk with me as we take a deep dive into the mysterious and haunting album "Gypsy People" by Jan & Lorraine. Released in the early '70s, this acid folk gem has intrigued vinyl collectors for years, with its ethereal melodies and captivatingly strange atmosphere. Despite its cult status, very little is known about the artists themselves — who they were, where they came from, or even how they came to record this enigmatic album. The album’s lack of details and the absence of any concrete information about Jan & Lorraine only adds to its allure, leaving fans and collectors alike to speculate on its origins. Join us as we attempt to unravel the mysteries of this obscure piece of vinyl history.
Thanks for tuning in, turning on & dropping by Vinyl Relics. I hope you dig "Gypsy People" as much as I do.

I accidentally cited the title of the Perth Country Conspiracy song incorrectly; the correct title is "Crucifix Cartoon". My apologies to all involved for the error.
