A gift to the overthinkers and overworked. Those who are over-concerned and always preoccupied. This is an invitation to hang up the bootstraps, take a load off, and visit a place in the mind where the sun is shining, the breeze is soft and the waves lap softly at your feet. Vacation From My Mind is a sonic realignment of melancholic soul, breezy soft rock, & mellow jazz-funk. This album is a thoughtfully curated collection of 12 rare and obscure tracks from 1973 to 1981. From Jeanette Baker's hypnotic 70's soul title track "Vacation From My Mind" to the Latin rhythms of David Buckland's jazz-funk "Celia", this compilation was lovingly crafted to ease the stresses and worries of modern life. The Care Package's song "The Storm" is a larger-than-life production of dreamy harmonies not often found on privately released 45s. Utopia's "Lejos de Mi" is a slow-burning slice of Bolivian psych that will have you searching for similar sounds. Whatever your preference, we hope that this album will give you a vacation from your mind.Original artwork by Eric Thompson'
