Chicago psychedelic rock quartet. Although originally signed to ABC Paramount, for whom they released a series of four singles, one of which (Every Day And Every Night/Are You The One) managed to edge its way into the charts, the band is best remembered for Animated Music, their only release for the Mercury offshoot label, Smash (SRS 67114). The album’s style is varied, ranging from the power of Werewolf And Witchbreath, to the more psych-orientated vibe of Satin City and Everybody’s Child, via the vaudevillian tones of Have You Seen The Queen and Professor Potts Pornographic Projector. The influences of melody and the vocal harmonies are felt throughout the album and the musical performances are uniformly excellent. There are also some periodic injections of varispeed vocals and strange sound effects that were becoming all the rage on late ‘60s major label psych albums. The album is now regarded as a psych masterpiece and is finally receiving the critical acclaim it so richly deserves.
