Previously known strictly as a reissue label, Jackpot Records is excited to host "Camera Found the Ray Gun" as our first intial-run release. We couldn't be prouder to see our lil' label growing up so fast. Now, if it would only learn to look both ways before crossing the street...

Presenting the latest vinyl release from the Jackpot Records label: Cromagnon's "Cave Rock"!
Originally released in 1969, Cromagnon's "Cave Rock" strings together a patchwork of untamed
sounds and mental images which perfectly articulate the boundary-breaking psychedelic
revolution that was occurring at the time -- musically and socially.
Widely heralded as the best freak-out record of all time, Cromagnon's "Cave Rock" is a
captivating experience that engages the listener. The album surpassed even the most outthere
psychedelia of its day, predicting what would soon become the disjointed aural
landscapes of Faust and the violent scuzz of Throbbing Gristle. Vivid elements of
Cromagnon's influence continues to shine in the lysergic rhythms of the Sun City Girls,
Nurse With Wound, Ghost, and Animal Collective.
*NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER! With a release date of February 23, 2010, "Cave Rock" is now available for pre-order with free shipping. (Please note: Due to the way our website is setup, your free shipping will not be processed until after you have checked out. Shipping will be refunded at this time.)
