Ted Lucas - Images of Life [3xLP - Orange/Turquoise]

Release Date: May 22, 2026
Label: Third Man Records

Images of Life is the career-spanning, 3xLP retrospective boxset illuminating the staggering breadth and depth of Detroit's unheralded songwriting genius, Ted Lucas. Disc one "Strange Mysterious Sounds (1965-1970)" highlights Ted's flirtation with psychedelic major label clout via his bands the Spike Drivers, the Misty Wizards and the Horny Toads. "Rainy Days (1970-1974)" will be the solo acoustic warmth and charm most familiar to folks already aware of Ted's self-titled "OM" album from 1975. "Impossible Love (1979)" the lost second Album finds Ted smooth and nearly "yacht rock" while never betraying the true artistry and craft of the once-in-a-generation talent of Ted Lucas.
