THE PEANUT BUTTER CONSPIRACY
AL BRACKETT, JOHN MERRILL, BARBARA "SANDI" ROBISON,
JIM VOIGT, LANCE FENT
Los Angeles psychedelic band the Peanut Butter Conspiracy emerged in 1966 from the remains
of the Ashes, formed the previous year by singer Pat Taylor, guitarist John Merrill, bassist Alan Brackett,
and drummer Spencer Dryden (who soon left the group to replace Skip Spence in the Jefferson Airplane).
Adding drummer Jim Voigt as Dryden's replacement, the Ashes recorded a self-titled LP
for the Vault label before disbanding, with Merrill, Brackett, and Voight recruiting singer Sandi Robison
and harpist/guitarist Lance Fent to form the Peanut Butter Conspiracy;

If you want to know why producer Gary Usher is revered in some circles, play
The Peanut Butter Conspiracy Is Spreading next to the pretty much self-produced
For Children of All Ages. A name as trendy as the Jefferson Airplane -- and a
sound that is absolutely the Airplane -- meets the Mamas & the Papas; the '60s
guitars sound smart; the 1967 liner notes by Lawrence Dietz tell you nothing about
the group; and the front cover looks like something Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper
encountered during Easy Rider. "It's a Happening Thing," like much of this record,
tries too hard. Decades after it was recorded, there is charm in a band like the PBC
(which rhymes with PCP) being such an authentic figment of someone's countercultural
imagination. Sandi Robison is stunning on "Then Came Love," and the production
by Gary Usher really is impressive -- it makes the record something special...(AllMusic)
