"Having released two LPs as The Staccatos, Ottawa, Canada s Five Man Electrical Band launched onto the scene in 1968 with this criminally underrated, psychedelically tinged pop gem. Reminiscent of The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Buffalo Springfield and other like-minded bands, Five Man Electrical Band developed into one of Canada's best-known groups, and their Capitol 45 of Half Past Midnight sold over 25,000 copies -- in Canada alone! Led by Les Emmerson, Five Man Electrical Band is today best known for their 1971 anti-establishment anthem 'Signs.' The Billboard # 3 single went on to sell over a million and a half copies. This first-ever CD issue of their long-out-of-print Capitol LP is supplemented by rare Staccatos 45s, none of which have ever been issued on CD. The 16-page color booklet also includes rare, unpublished photos and comprehensive liner notes that feature the participation of original band members. Remastered from the original master tapes."
