Whirlpool Ocean

Description

With each passing year since his death, the intense and inspiring musical legacy of

Jesus Acedo is in danger of slipping into darkness. That’s where we at Lion

Productions come in — together with Rich Hopkins and San Jacinto Records — to do

our utmost to keep the Lambent Flame burning, so to speak. All of the music on

“Whirlpool Ocean” originates from the troubled and bizarre sessions for the album

Acedo made under the name Black Sun Legion — and then destroyed, when his

struggles with schizophrenia overwhelmed him. Fortunately, Hopkins had the masters,

or this LP would not exist today, and some of Acedo’s most brilliant music would be

lost. Happily, not the case. We have this album and other recordings of Acedo’s

through which to remember and admire his genius.
