      California mail order mystic Master Wilburn Burchette was first known from his ads, hidden in the back pages of Fate Magazine, Beyond Reality and Gnostica News.

      On his 1972 sophomore album, Burchette channels dreamy early music, druid folk, electric fingerstyle, psychedelic balladry and new age ontology, to create a visionary guitar technique all his own.

      This faithful reproduction includes the original 12-page full colour instruction book for the secret method of piercing the psychic heart.
