[1967] West Coast Natural Gas - A Favor

listen to the song:


This is the B-Side of "Go Run and Play", Produced by Matthew Katz and Charlie Burkes. The song
is written by Steven Mack. Apparently this San Francisco band was an early incarnation of "Indian 
Puddin' and Pipe" also produced by Matthew Katz. Fine Psychedelic Rock with some deep feelings,
a mix of dark clouds hanging above big-and-fat-buildings-of-a-dirty-city and sunshine shining into a
smokey room with coloured walls etc. in the afternoon... Find more informations about the West
Coast Natural Gas here. (PS: meanwhile, in 2012, a LP with rare and unreleased material was
released on RD Redcords. Actually that's the first LP in the band's discoraphy).

[1966] Blues Magoos - Gotta Get Away

listen to the song:


This one is taken from the Blues Magoos' 1966 album "Psychedelic Lollipop"- a infantile funny name
by the way. Although the album title sounds like a LSD-drechned bubbglegum or popsike LP, the
Blues Magoos went into a clear garage-rock direction, quite similiar to the early Rolling Stones
sound. Their defiant vocals add a perfect proto-punk note to the relationship-issue-lyrics.

[1967] Electric Prunes - I Had Too Much To Dream (Last Night)

listen to the song:


A classic of it's own! There is probably no one out there, who doesn't know the Electric Prunes and
their best known hit "I Had Too Much To Dream (Last Night)". In 1967 they made it pretty big with
this garage-fuzz tune. Soft elements clash with heavy sounds, having a dance together with that acid
guitar soundby their side.
