Found the disk of a singer abducted by aliens
Jim Sullivan disappeared without trace 35 years ago. The world now finds its first album, recorded in 1969 with the musicians of Phil Spector
In the world of collecting audiophile discs are rare, very rare and the Martians. In this last group it belongs to, even terminologically UFO (1969), and ignored the wonderful debut of Jim Sullivan, an Irish blood Californian singer who used to sing every night in a bar in Malibu. Almost no one paid attention then, either during the 41 years, these 10 songs of psychedelic folk-rock titled with the acronym to refer to UFOs. But even more intriguing is the ultimate fate of its creator, who disappeared without trace in the desert of New Mexico. His most faithful devotees are clear: Sullivan was abducted by aliens.

Only through the efforts of some crazy-wonderful label makers of Light in the Attic, we can now recover that unknown recording and reconstruct the history of his protagonist to where the mystery becomes inscrutable. This seal of Seattle specializes in reissues of albums impossible invested a couple of years to trace Sullivan through his wife, his son and his representative, Robert Ginter. Today we still do not know what the hell was Jim, but at least we can investigate the UFO legacy, as amazing as work for the British magazine Uncut granted a five-star rating in its December issue.
Nobody heard the absorbent material of UFO, just 29 minutes of folk-rock with orchestral arrangements that will delight fans of Fred Neil, David Axelrod and Scott Walker. Nobody paid any attention either to the second LP Sullivan, signed in 1972. And so to no surprise that in 1975, with his marriage on the verge of shattering, Jim grabbing the twelve-string guitar and the keys to his Volkswagen to put towards Nashville, where he would try to take off as a studio musician.
