i've always been a fan of this album as far as obscure rock operas go:

I hate that I had to pack away my record player while we try to sell our house, I really wanted to listen to this yesterday.

Looks like the prices have dropped a bit on this in the last decade. Was just thinking about this record again last night, I need to pull it out for a spin.

Was thinking about this record again the other day and saw that someone added a little more context via Discogs back in 2013:
Everyhead was a rock opera, inspired by the European Middle Ages play about morality, and re-written to take place in contemporary, 1970’s America. The opera was performed in Los Angeles, in 1975, where it was recorded live for this release. This double album was only ever released as a promotional test pressing, which was refused airplay by American radio, mainly because of two song titles “Ballad Of the Fucking Trees” and “America Is A Pig”, which effectively stopped its release. The recordings were mastered by legendary rock engineer Kent Duncan.
