Poobah's Re-Issue of 1972's Underground Classic, Let Me In, To Hit Streets This Summer!
















With the original 1972 LP fetching upwards of $300 a piece at various auction sites, Poobah and Ripple Music decided it was time to "re-unleash" the album that started the madness. The fuzzed-out, psychedelic, proto-metal masterpiece is set to hit the streets on October 12th, 2010 and will be available in CD, digital, and deluxe double gatefold 12" vinyl versions. Fully remastered by T. Dallas Reed (Stone Axe/Mos Generator) the songs have a fresh vitality while never losing the 70's edge that made them so endearing in the first place. The original six tracks will be accompanied by a ton of previously unreleased tracks and never before seen photographs; Let Me In will undoubtedly satisfy the most rabid of Poobah fan! The CD edition includes twelve bonus cuts and an 8-page booklet that features live shots and of the band at some of their most candid moments, while the double LP edition includes 10 bonus tracks and is pressed on two-toned black and white vinyl. Now accepting pre-orders at http://www.ripple-music.com/!




















POOBAH has been called "the most collectible psych rock band in the world" by Goldmine magazine, and the Cleveland Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (where Poobah has played 12 concerts -a record). Cleveland Scene magazine called Poobah "years ahead of their time". Original Poobah Vinyl LPs sell for as much as $900 for a single copy ! Martin Popoff of Guitar World called Poobah "King of Indie Rock", and "the greatest indie band of the 70's". After over 2500 live shows in the USA and Canada and recording many CDs , Poobah rocks like no other. with a new CD ready to be released (the 12th CD). Goldmine magazine called Poobah "brilliant guitar work, with a gift for melody".

"One of the best kept secrets that the US Heavyrock movement have ever produced . . . stunning and devastating heavy rock that is very essential and very classic." -- Vampire Magazine
