“From the opening organ stab to the closing ..., here's an LP I absolutely love. Unfortunately, in terms of bibliographical information there's little we can tell you about the band. The back cover shows them to have been a quartet, but there's little in the way of liner notes. Presumably D. Brown and H. Steele were two of the members since they're credited with writing the eleven tracks. We can also tell you that 1968's \"The New Mix\" was produced by Tommy Kaye. So what's this thing sound like? If you have to categorize it, the overarching feel is that of \"sunshine pop\" and lite psyche. Imagine a trippy version of The Association and you'll get a pretty good feel for moody tracks such as \"Ursla\", \"Man\" and the nifty \"Ever Brighter\". Admittedly, The Association comparison isn't 100% accurate in that, unlike the former, these guys weren't scared of a nice guitar solo (\"The New Harpoon Song\") and occasionally turned in a true rocker (check out the opener \"While We Waited\" and side two's \"Get Me Out\"). “
“A fresh-sounding psychedelic rock/pop album. The opening cut, While We Waited, has a melodramatic intro and wailing guitar, but for the most part the album consists of pleasing vocal harmonies and nicely blended keyboards. The music is quite Beatle-ish at times, particularly on Side Two. Recommended.
All the material on this album was written by D. Brown and H. Steele but the group still remain enigmatic. No 45s can be found by this band on United Artists or elsewhere. It may explain why their album seems to have made little impact and remains obscure and unappreciated.”
