This outfit came out of Northern Massachusetts with what some would argue is the ultimate psychedelic album,
full of superb Beatles - like vocals and songs with great guitar work.All the band's members had previously been
in an outfit called The Road Runners, who released an acetate single, You Don't Understand/One Light and
Charron, Mazzotta, Door and Pollano were helped out on the album by Joe Villanucci, who played electric piano
on Sarah Saturday. Original copies of Corridor Of Faces now change hands for hundreds of dollars and were
virtually impossible to find in the U.S. let alone elsewhere. The album was recorded between 22nd June
and 13th July 1968 on a budget of $1000 and emphasised the softer, more reflective side of the band, which
was apparently a lot heavier live. The album perfectly establishes a mood - musing and introspective
but not melancholy - with guileless vocals expressing a rapt, unhurried contentment.
While not overtly psychedelic, the atmosphere strongly suggests the drug experience in its basking-in-the moment serenity.
At times the band sound almost dead-ringers for Kaleidoscope (UK version) on tracks like Salty People,
How Was Your Day Last Night and Come With The Day. Under Skies has all the evanescence and permanence
of a hazy summer's day, while Sarah Saturday and How Did You Die sound like parodies of Paul McCartney
and John Lennon respectively. A beautiful album that keeps on improving with further acquaintance...(Fuzz Acid & Flowers)
