JIM SULLIVAN
Jim Sullivan
2019 U.S. reissue
And then… there’s THIS GUY.
One of the biggest mysteries in music history.
A wonderful singer/songwriter who made two wonderful albums, and then literally vanished without a trace.
A friend of actor Dennis Hopper (Sullivan pops up briefly in the film Easy Rider playing the guitar at a commune), Sullivan’s car was found in New Mexico.
In it was all of his clothes, his money, and a box of his unsold albums.
His body was never found.
He literally just…
disappeared.
This was his second of the two albums he made, and these are wonderful tunes.
Dude kinda looked like John Belushi a bit, too. Or did Belushi look like Jim Sullivan? 😂
Regardless, give this guy a listen. Pretty good, songs man.
Good enough to get him on The Jose Feliciano show.

Jim Sullivan, U.F.O., 1969 on Monnie Records
im Sullivan’s U.F.O. originally came out on Monnie back in 1969 (basically a self-funded pressing), and then was reissued with the title Jim Sullivan (with a different mix) by Century City Records in 1970. It was out of print until Light in the Attic reissued it in 2010, forty years later.
Sullivan famously disappeared in New Mexico in 1975, adding some romance and intrigue – especially when one of the theories is alien abduction, given the album’s title.
Musicians on the LP include some of the Wrecking Crew: Earl Palmer, Don Randi, Jimmy Bond, Lyle Ritz, and Max Bennett.
My copy is the Vinyl Me Please reissue made by Light in the Attic, as part of the VMP Essentials track (VMP E081) which came out in 2019. Reissue was produced by Matt Sullivan (co-found of Light in the Attic – no relation to Jim) with sound restoration/mastering by Dave Cooley.
