New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Luck Media & Marketing, Inc.) - Last summer, America marked the 40th anniversary of the legendary Woodstock Festival. The event earned tons of media coverage and spawned a small cottage industry of nostalgic books. But musically, there was a lot more to 1969 than the artists that played on the farm in upstate New York that year.

'The Goldmine Price Guide to Rare and Collectible Record Albums'

'69 was also the year of Song of a Gypsy, a glorious, trippy and romantic piece of psychedelic musical history by Damon The Gypsy, a singer-songwriter who reflected the era of peace and love, not hate but Haight - as in Haight-Ashbury.

Forty years beyond its initial LP release, and 20 years after selling thousands following its CD release, Damon is introducing Song of a Gypsy to a whole new generation with a new 'VHD' version re-mastered by John Vestman, a 30-year veteran engineer who has worked on projects by Sting, George Duke, Hole and Teena Marie, among others.

It's a unique piece of history, not only because it so perfectly speaks to the 'gypsy soul' in all of us but because it's all about truth, in an earthy way; simple yet professional and personal. It's the '60s experience seen through the kaleidoscope eyes of a true musical vet of the era - one who came upon his modal, sitar-like acoustic guitar sound by chance one night in Big Sur, California, jamming with none other than Ravi Shankar and George Harrison.

Song of a Gypsy is one of the most sought after vinyls of its time, with 'The Goldmine Price Guide to Rare and Collectible Record Albums' listing it at over $3,000.

Damon has performed everywhere from his home base in SoCal to Amsterdam, Greece and Spain; he even played 14 cities in 16 days a few years ago. With the VHD release of Song of a Gypsy, he's looking forward to hitting the road again, and currently working on a third album to complete the 'gypsy' trilogy.
