Upheaval - Now That You’ve Gone
One of the world’s most sought after 45s, created by 9-piece prison group ‘Upheaval’, who recorded the single in 1974 whilst serving at Wisconsin State Prison. The story goes this is one of 25 copies known to exist, mainly known for ‘Paradise Lost’, the flip contains one of the most evocative & haunting ballads.
In direct partnership with the group & the last remaining member, Joseph Hayes, we’re able to offer this for everyone, as showcased on our current compilation, The Key To Our Love Vol.3. Available as a limited LP & digitally through symphonicalrecords.com
Be sure to support those who support you, and what you love. We work with those who created the music we love, legitimately licensed & in full respect of the people behind it, and for its future audience.
