"Their music reaches from blues to jazz into space", proclaimed the original liner notes to this highly unusual psychedelic jazz blast, originally released in 1968. The demented seven-piece band hailed from Boston, which was in the throes of the notorious "Bosstown hype" when their album was recorded. Though it can be compared to contemporary acts such as Captain Beefheart and Blood, Sweat & Tears, it has a distinctive sound of its own, blending howling vocals, biting electric guitar and avant-garde saxophone with other instruments such as vibraphone, organ and congas, and makes its long-overdue CD debut here.
