Eden's Children - Eden's Children & Sure Looks Real (1968)
Boston's answer to Blue Cheer, this album is a guilty pleasure. Most of the songs are little more than excuses to turn up the dials and just riff ("Knocked Out", "If She's Right", "Don't Tell Me"), and sometimes, they're beyond apology ("Stone Fox"), but the spirit of the trio is infectious. If the album had a little more variation (as on the raga-inspired "Just Let Go", or the lone ballad "Goodbye, Girl"), it might have made more of an impact. Despite what some sources will tell you, this isn't garbage, even if most of it is just amplified fluff.
