This superb blend of acid-rock, blues, and psychedelic balladry was originally released in June 1969, and makes its long-awaited return to CD here. Produced by Tom Wilson (best-known for his work with Bob Dylan, Frank Zappa, Simon & Garfunkel, and The Velvet Underground), it boasts the considerable vocal talents of Ellen McIlwaine, while the band's extended cover of "In My Time of Dying" has been cited as an influence on Led Zeppelin.

LP version, full color gatefold sleeve. "The album was originally released in 1969 on Dot-Records but didn't receive too much attention -- maybe it appeared as a 'too' freaked out heavy version of Jefferson Airplane or Big Brother & the Holding Co. The group started back in Atlanta Georgia in 1967 as a quartet with two guitars and played true psychedelic sound, recorded at the Record Plant in NYC, and moved to Woodstock (NY). The 10 album tracks contain two arrangements of traditional tunes all others are originals reflecting true electric heavy blues with a strong Hendrix feel, duelling guitar work and an outstanding female voice/vocals/screams...lots of intense stereo effects. This release is issued with stunning sound quality from the masters. For all '60s collectors who are not familiar with this masterpiece -- it's a must -- there are not many groups that were able to present the freewheelin' live on stage feeling on their studio album!"
