THE CHOCOLATE WATCHBAND

a place to be for a band that didn't exist anymore). They hadn't played a note together in almost 15 years, 

but their original albums were changing hands for $100 apiece or more, and a series of vinyl reissues, first as bootlegs 

from France and later legit ones from Australia, were selling around the world, and in numbers 

that only increased as more people had a chance to hear them. What's more, the group's sound was starting 

to be emulated in the work of then-current bands, playing obscure clubs in places like New York's Chelsea district 

and other locales as far east as the District of Columbia, made up of teenagers who were too young ever 

to have seen or heard the Watchband play, and living 3,500 miles east of where the Watchband played out 

its existence, and most of its gigs, two decades before. The group had reached this paradoxical situation 

-- nonexistence juxtaposed with a burgeoning cult of admirers around the world -- simply by being 

the best garage band of the '60s, or, at least, the best one ever to have had a serious recording career

The third and final of the original studio albums by the Chocolate Watchband, One Step Beyond 

is a bit misleading and contradictory. On the one hand, it's as close as any performing group 

called the Chocolate Watchband ever got to making a finished album of their own, which is reflected 

in the fact that all but one song here was an original by the bandmembers; but on the other hand, 

this is a different Watchband lineup, assembled by Sean Tolby and Bill Flores, including 

guitarist Mark Loomis and drummer Gary Andrijasevich (both of whom had left in 1967 

to join the Tingle Guild), and original, Foothill College-era Chocolate Watchband member 

Danny Phay (who'd also been in the Tingle Guild). Missing is David Aguilar, the band's one-time 

lead singer and most visible songwriter up to that time -- and the result is an album 

that has almost none of the influence of the Rolling Stones, and, instead, shows 

the greatest folk-rock influence in their history. The overall sound is brittle but melodic, 

reminiscent in some ways of the Quicksilver Messenger Service, the Charlatans, 

Moby Grape, and the Jefferson Airplane...(AllMusic)
