Weird, outsider, psychedelic rock from 1968-69, Some of the best tracks are “Sister Lonely”, “Midnight Ranger”, “Yes, I Love You”, and “Machines”. They used some theremin and other esoteric instruments. This is some early electronic work that is pretty impressive. This band was once almost on Elektra Records in the 60’s, but when they deferred, Elektra signed Jim Morrison and the Doors instead.
