Reviews
Decent band with relatively unknown incredible singer unleash respectable initial blues/rock/psych demo released unbeknown to the band following their successful appearance at Monterey Pop Festival. Confirms the phenomenon that the mid-60’s period San Francisco sound that sounded so fantastic live, lost almost everything when translated in the studio. Catches a glimmer of the adrenalin driven passion the band would soon deliver.
Promising taste of things to come.
