A Mushroom is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of fungus typically produced above ground on soil or on their food source. The standard for the name mushroom is the cultivated white button mushroom, Agaricus bisporus, hence the word mushroom is most often applied to fungi (Basidiomycota, Agaricomycetes) that have a stem (called a stipe), a cap (called a pileus), and gills (each called a lamella/pl. lamellae) on the underside of the cap just as do store-bought white mushrooms. However, mushrooms can ... be a wide variety of gilled fungi, with or without stems, and the term is used even more generally to describe both fleshy fruitbodies of some Ascomycota and woody or leathery fruitbodies of some Basidiomycota, depending upon the context of the usage. Usually forms deviating from the standard form have more specific names, such as puffballs, stinkhorn, morels, etc. and gilled mushrooms themselves are often called agarics, in reference to their similarity to Agaricus or placement in the order Agaricales.

Mushroom Records had its beginnings when Micheal Gudinski was managing the band Healing Force who had the single "Golden Miles" released in July 1971. It shot to the top of the charts, but their record company at the time had already stopped producing the record as they didnt have faith in the record, so copies ran out. Micheal Gudinski formed Mushroom Records to make sure that would never happen again.[1]

The San Francisco-based psychedelic, post-jazz collective Mushroom has been consistently releasing albums of fiercely experimental mind-altering music for upwards of ten years now. Maverick trumpeter Eddie Gale has shared stages with Cecil Taylor, Sun Ra and Elvin Jones, while having recorded the seminal Blue Note albums Black Rhythm Happening and Ghetto Music. Despite the generations that separate them, Eddie Gale is, in fact, part of the lineage from which Mushroom emerges; that being based in the pursuit of the artistic spirit which seeks higher elevation through music. As is the case, that search has led Mushroom and Eddie Gale's paths to cross, documenting their collaboration on the forthcoming HYENA Records' release, Joint Happening.
