Album Description
Available in:
Mystic Mood Orchestra’s 13th album in seven years and their third set for Warner Bros in 12 months. Hyper-productive king of the super-mood LP, MMO chief, audiophile and quadrasonic sound pioneer Brad Miller was the playlist master of his day. He would develop a strong use case (LOVE! MEXICAN THINGS! NIGHTTIME! STORM’S-A-COMING! COSMIC STUFF!) and build an album around the emotions all those separate strands provoked.

Since he was a teenager, Miller had been making steam and diesel engine recordings and moved on to selling them through magazines and model train shows. Then, one night in 1966, a radio DJ called Ernie McDaniel (host of The Wonderful World of Sound show on San Francisco’s KFOG) placed a copy of Miller’s Steam Railroading Under Thundering Skies album on one turntable and an easy listening album on the other. In doing so he invented Mystic Moods Orchestra (and, tbh, the Orb). Suitably inspired, Miller and arranger Don Ralke then began to release a stream of lush, instrumental music suitable for grownups to eat chicken kievs to while staring out of the window and wondering what to say to each other.
