The CA Quintet's journey to Hades burned hot enough to melt the ice in
their frigid Minnesota environs - A coveted collectable since the
psychedelic record collecting disaster whirl frst started over 30 years
ago, Trip Thru Hell (1968) is rightly regarded as the epitome of local
psych-cum-garage rising above its humble roots into something truly
monolithic
Evolving from the local circuit into a hellish beast of keyboards, lysergic lyrics,
trippy guitars and even subtle trumpet parts, the C.A. Quintet's vision of the
netherworld glowed in faming orange, red and yellow as their instincts took over.
Kicking off with the chilling psychedelicized keyboard-led instrumental title track,
the album singes the psyche of the listener with an array of atmospheric
beelzefuzz on "Colorado Mourning," sitar- like solos intertwining with fuzz and
horns on "Underground Music," and the more benevolent Lucifer on "Smooth As
Silk," which swirls with keys and harmony vocals to underscore a brilliant melody.
Mortals dare not venture to the sinister realm of the "Cold Spider" and especially
not "Sleepy Hollow Lane
