2016/Pacemaker-Lion Records…… This is a Mint SEALED re-issue of this great Canadian Psych lp. SEALED. Please check out our other listings of used and new lp’s. Good luck and thanks for looking!
Rare and much beloved Canadian pop–psych record from 1968–an album considered by many to be the best to come out of Canada during the late 1960’s! Built around the talents of singer/guitarist Jay Tefler and bassist Fergus Hambleton, A Passing Fancy made their name in Toronto’s vibrant Yorkville Village scene. That initial successes playing Toronto’s club circuit led to a headlining stint at the 1967 Toronto Expo. The resulting publicity saw them "discovered" by Columbia Records, who subsequently released a string of four outstanding pop/psych singles. Here’s where it gets weird. In spite of the four hit singles, Columbia elected not to release an album. Indie label Boo Records was formed to release "A Passing Fancy" on LP (the singles plus four additional tracks).
Although the LP received strong reviews, Boo Records couldn’t sustain promotion; by the end of the year the band had called it quits. A shame, as it’s a terrific album–tough edgy rock (slashing lead track and hit single, ’I’m Losing Tonight’); pop/psych (singles tracks ’A Passing Fancy, ’ ’You’re Going Out Of Your Mind, ’ and ’She Phoned’); sunshine pop (’I Believe in Sunshine’); a great acid rock meltdown (’Your Trip’). Something for everybody! As usual, we went all out to try to produce a top–notch reissue. A few years of searching led us to A Passing Fancy lead singer, rhythm guitarist, primary song–writer, and later, screenwriter (1977’s Kid Vengeance, starring Jim Brown, Lee Van Cleef and Leif Garrett is his), the late Jay Telfer. He supplied a band history and lyrics for all the songs to round out this reissue.
First legit LP reissue of this much beloved Canadian pop–psych rarity!
