"If any one group can legitimately qualify as the 'great lost psychedelic band', then Frumious Bandersnatch are that group. The few tantalizing glimpses of the combo afforded by their sole release from the 1960s have engendered an enormous reputation. The subsequent fortunes of its members in groups like Journey and the Steve Miller Band have only added to the phenomenon. Frumious Bandersnatch were amongst the second wave of the 1960s San Francisco rock renaissance, but they had no allegiance to folk or jazz or any of the other influences that shaped the major players such as the Dead or the Airplane. Instead the group came together in the culturally-arid environs of Contra Costa County in the East Bay, over the hill from politicized Berkeley and working-class Oakland, and a world away from cosmopolitan San Francisco itself."
