About 1990 EP (reissue)

Recorded in 1989, this is one of the rare and sought after recordings by Larry Heard. Never been available since 1990 and a departure from his more familiar style that he released as Mr Fingers, Fingers Inc. and The It. Gherkin has been an outlet for his more experimental and techno-orientated productions. 6 tracks on this record, and everyone seems to have their own favorite... but worth mentioning are the dramatic opener ''Meltdown'', the cosmic ''Saturn V'' and the incredible extra terrestial ''Strange Creatures''. Tracks that are the foundation of the house we live in! - essential!

Alleviated released 1990 EP (reissue) on Wed Apr 24 2013. The 6 track House release features The Gherkin Jerks.

Alleviated has also released vinyl by Mr Fingers, Larry Heard, Michael Kuntzman, Fingers N Flowers, and Gherkin Jerks. Browse the Alleviated catalogue.
