A tripped-out batch of tracks from Brazil! These guys mix together a bit of funk, a bit of psych, and touches of Jorge Ben-like soul -- into a blend that's really groovy all the way through, and which will be sure to please any fan of the Samba Soul groove! Jorge Ben's influence is all over the set -- filtered through some garagey production that makes the tracks sound rawer than any of Ben's own work, and which give the guitars a nice fuzzed out edge. The whole thing's almost psychedelic at times, but has a fair bit of soul as well.

Bobbie Gentry remains one of the most interesting and underappreciated artists to emerge out of Nashville during the late '60s. Best-known for her crossover smash "Ode to Billie Joe," she was one of the first female country artists to write and produce much of her own material,
In 1971, she issued her final Capitol effort, Patchwork, primarily confining her performing to her nightclub act for the next several years.

This album is of interest for Flower Pot, a long fifteen minute psychedelic suite which takes up the whole of Side Two. Complete with sound effects, phasing, screams, echo loops and bird noises, the track was recorded in one take, with the voices overdubbed later. The group formed in Las VegasThe groups energy in live performance could never really be captured on record. The horn sound created by the Trumpet, Trombone and Sax with the funky rhythm section was truly incredible.

The Poppy Family was a late 1960s and early 1970s Canadian pop music group, based in Vancouver, British Columbia."In the late summer of 1969 the Canadian record buying public chose to endorse The Poppy Family by establishing "Which Way You Goin' Billy?" as the biggest Canadian hit ever. 'Billy' successfully climbed to the No.1 spot on all radio stations across Canada. Having watched The Poppy Family from Vancouver, British Columbia, evolve as a recording group has been a satisfying and rewarding experience. The constant creative growth, both musically and lyrically, within the group is evident in the album Which Way You Goin' Billy?. The versatility of the group, from Terry Jacks' meaningful writing, to his wife Susan's beautiful and emotion-packed voice allow them to explore avenues of musical expression hitherto uncharted. All the while The Poppy Family retain their own sound so unique to themselves". (Fraser Jamieson, President London Records, Canada - November 17 1969).[citation needed]

Mega-rare light psych item is one of the few in the genre in which the creative force is a woman, Sue Akins. This isn't really much like all of the Airplane-wannabe bands, either; Hendrickson Road House has a distinctive sound with mildly jazzy arrangements, subtle lead guitar, a tad of autoharp, smooth vocals and a definite late-night feel. The guitar playing has a bit of a West Coast influence, though it's not the least bit heavy. The closest comparison would be the Serpent Power songs with Tina Meltzer on lead vocals. One jazzy instrumental with a lot of sax manages not to sound out of place. Otherwise Akins sings all of the songs, and the album has a coherence not often felt in the genre. Not a masterpiece, but quite good, and the lack of a reissue is truly puzzling given its quality and rarity.

The band formed in 1966, with the members coming from Westminster, California, and Tustin, California (both in Orange County). Jim Quarles invented the name "because it had a mystical and otherworldly ring", and the father of one of the band members (Jim Foster) served as their manager. The two then began writing songs for the new band: "I didn't know what I was doing at the time. I just wrote the songs with Jim Foster. I didn't have any prior experience."

Clem Alford was a classically-trained sitar player who spent time in India to enhance his knowledge of Indian classical music prior to joining the interesting but short-lived Magic Carpet in the early seventies. Upon their demise he recorded two solo albums of sitar music which are not easy to track down. The first is now a collector's item, and has been reissued on CD with additional material. The second, which is even harder to find, was recorded exclusively for use in music libraries. Prior to this in 1972 he'd recorded an album under the name Sagram.

Charles Wright (born in 1940 in Clarksdale, Mississippi) & the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band is a pioneering soul and funk band. Formed in the early 1960s, they had the most visibility from 1967 to 1973.
The title track is an upbeat soul/funk classic. The fuzzy bass and upbeat lyrics are sure to turn the party out. You can't front, this shit will have thugs smilin. "You are the One for Me" has a hard, stripped-down bassline and drum backing and nice laid back lyrics, also a party favorite. Like I said, almost everything on here has a catchy groove. I think there's even a Tribe sample in the beginning of "Mother's Love." Above all, what I like most about this album is the upbeat vibe. This shit is happy music. We pump it at the Lab when we have all-niters. Even the ballads got a groove to them, perfect for staring into space when you're feeling bezerk.
