Back by popular demand, Roy Rutanen’s self-titled album in a strictly limited 2nd pressing of 200 copies, with extra goodies: marble vinyl, Bonus CD single ‘Hey You’ (with download card), printed signed card, and the 2-page color insert that was included in the 1st pressing.  Rutanen’s album has been a best-kept secret among psychedelia and acid-folk collectors ever since its original release in 1971. What could have been the solid foundation for a promising career in the music industry was abandoned due to the lack of label support, subsequently surviving as a one-off museum piece, accessible to a select few who can afford the price commanded for original copies.  Roy’s music continues to shine through with his unique combination of moody acoustic bliss and acid-drenched solos, all of which are epitomized in the Trip Song, the 10-minutes long magnum opus of the album that might as well be listed in the Top 10 psychedelic tunes of all times.

A much sought after artefact among savvy prog collectors, and not at all coincidentally, For You The Old Women sits comfortably among the top 10 most inventive and omni-dexterous US prog...

Yet, being equipped with extremely scarce resources, including having to borrow friend’s cars to travel at the few p...
