Bandcamp

From Buffalo, New York, they were previously known as The Mellow Brick Rode, who released one 45 in 1968 - Don't Put All Your Eggs In One Basket / Other Side Of This Life (United Artists UA 50333).

On their 1970 LP they come across as a club/covers band with occasional Vanilla Fudge mannerisms in their heavyish treatments. They tackle the Zombies' She's Not There (one of their better offerings and a minor hit), Buffalo Springfield's Mr.Soul and Rock'n'Roll Woman (credit points for good taste if not the results), Sly Stone's Dance To The Music, Love-itis (tough R&B pop also done by The Sonics). Despite occasional heavy or fuzz guitar noises it's a patchy album - on the down side they deliver a funky brassed-up version of garageband fave I Can Only Give You Everything and an uptempo lounge-style Taste Of Honey.
