VA - The Astromusical House of Sagittarius [1969]

EASY LISTENING

VA - The Astromusical House of Sagittarius [1969]

It was released by GWP Records as part of a 12-volume zodiac-themed series, each LP representing a different astrological sign. The music blends pop, easy listening, and light psych, with tracks like “Day Tripper,” “Strawberry Fields Forever,” and “Oh Happy Day” reinterpreted in lush, studio-crafted arrangements.

The artist for The Astromusical House Of Sagittarius (1969) is officially listed as Unknown Artist. 

The album includes a 12"x12" illustrated booklet by astrologer Carroll Righter, and the cover photography was done by Francesco Scavullo, adding a layer of high-concept visual flair. Though the performers remain anonymous, the production credits name Paul Robinson as producer, with art direction by Bob Cato both notable figures in late ’60s studio culture.

It’s a fascinating slice of astrological kitsch, and one of the more collectible entries in the GWP “Astromusical” series. (B)
