Ok psych

"overall, this is a rather pedestrian release culled from outtakes and scrap material. rosemary's baby and woodrose syrup are good tracks, but some of this is poorly recorded and other things are just rather dull. i would instead suggest that you track down their awesome 1968 ep. this can be found on the berkeley eps cd, and is a better testament to their powers. all three tracks on that ep are really excellent and remind one to some degree of moby grape and quicksilver messenger service.this isn't a terrible recording but it isnt as good as one would hope for after hearing their ep."

I like this band!

"I agree with others that the ep they put out was better, and that it is a real shame that they never released a full length album, this album still captures some great music. The lead guitar work on this disc is great. He is one of the great unsung psychedelic guitarists and some of their jams rival ven country joe and the fish. I recomend this to anyone who loves that old jam band sound."
