J Rider

***NOW AVAILABLE ON VINYL!!! Hot on the heels of our ecstatically received reissue of ANONYMOUS’ classic album Inside the Shadow, Machu Picchu Ltd. is thrilled to announce the reissue of their elusive and legendary follow-up. After the 1976 release of Inside the Shadow, the group decided to change their name to J RIDER (after the second cut on the Anonymous LP) and pursued a similar rich vein of impeccable songwriting, but this time adding more hard rock to the mix, resulting in a fantastic sounding album that sadly went unreleased at the time. The excellent reissue label OR Records first unearthed the tapes and put out a small edition of LPs in 1996, and we are now very happy to present you with a new and deluxe edition of this gem, complete with new sleeve art. This record is highly recommended for everyone who enjoyed Inside the Shadow, and  it also happens to come with an entire unreleased album of songs recorded by the group’s visionary songwriter RON MATELIC. That’s right, ten bonus tracks of previously unheard songs recorded in the 1990s, featuring most of the members of Anonymous;  a lost LP, if you like, and a fascinating complement to the Anonymous and J Rider albums.  (Bonus tracks will be included in the form of a download card with each LP and are included on the compact disc).
