Notes: Right
in the midst of the hippie movement there was a pysch vein running
strong. Graceful harmonies, distorted guitars and the scent of
patchouli wafting over the pillow strewn room. Beads and
sunglasses and bare feet and paisley. This describes both the cover
art and the songs. They came, they saw, they had a hit and then
went away. Still a good record today.
