Salvador Dali was a Danish composer and musician who by sheer coincidence happened to share name and look (they were almost identical!) with a famous Spanish painter. Unlike the Spanish painter however, this Danish composer has remained totally unknown to this day, his works hidden on analog 1/8 " tapes. Interestingly enough several of his works bear titles very close to some of the painter Salvador Dali's works. Could this be a coincidence? Did Salvador Dali know of the existence of Salvador Dali. Did he inspire him? Surely Dali's musical works were very surreal and experimental, adding a totally new dimension to the concept of "music"...

All my writing is about the recognition that there is no single reality. But the beauty of it is that you nevertheless go on, walking towards utopia, which may not exist, on a bridge which might end before you reach the other side. Marguerite Young
Recorded: live on March 16, 2003 at the Beta Lounge in San Francisco
In 1967, San Francisco’s Fifty Foot Hose were certainly one of the
innovators of a sound that took Psychedelia to new heights and was
captured on the band’s one record, Cauldron. They are a totally
unique hybrid—on one hand pulsating bay area acid rock, on the other,
fractured electronic freakery, becoming one whole cohesive being. The
sci-fi-ish video game-like artwork hinted at the sounds within, as did
the Limelight label’s pedigree for truly progressive sounds. Band
leader, Cork Marcheschi, used homemade electronic devices to create
crude and experimental soundscapes and instrumental compositions that
were sprinkled throughout the album.
Often starting shows with a swelling rumble that exploded into the
first song, they soon developed a rabid following on the SF scene,
though there was the occasional totally wrong gig, like when a
very-pregnant Nancy had to perform at a Catholic Girls’ school! Still,
the group wowed the crowds, performing with greats like Chuck Berry and
Fairport Convention.
