THE ONLY ALBUM RELEASED BY THIS SAN FRANCISCO GROUP IN IS A GOOD EXAMPLE
OF THE WAYS IN WHICH THE “SAN FRANCISCO SOUND” HAD COALESCED INTO A
RECOGNIZABLE TREND BY 1967 : MUSIC SET TO BEAT POETRY, A COMBINATION OF
BLUESIER ROCKERS AND WISPY, FOLK-INFLUENCED TUNES WITH MALE AND FEMALE
HARMONIES, AND MEDITATIONS ABOUT DRUGS ALL DATE THE ALBUM SOMEWHAT,
BUT THE SONGS THEMSELVES ARE QUITE GOOD, WITH EXCELLENT BAND INTERPLAY
AND NICE ELECTRIC GUITAR WORK. THE HEAVIER SONGS PACK A GOOD PUNCH, WHILE
THE LIGHTER SONGS SET A VERY AIRY, FLOWING MOOD, THE EPITOME OF WHAT WAS
THEN BECOMING KNOWN AS “FLOWER POWER” - UP FOR AUCTION A BEAUTIFUL COPY
OF THIS RARE PSYCH ALBUM IN SUPER CLEAN JACKET WITH PUNCH HOLE AND GORGEOUS
STEREO RECORD WHICH APPEARS TO BE IN HARDLY PLAYED CONDITION.
