Label: Wayback records
Catnr: mmcd 66026/mmlp 66026
Barcode CD/LP: 4010073602625 / 4010073602618
First official reissue of THE WEEDS (1966) and THE LOLLIPOP SHOPPE (1/1968) authorized by Fred Cole of DEAD MOON fame.
Life for a young band on the road and on the way up is a merry chaos. Especially with "You Must Be A Witch" proving a hit single, The Weeds – excuse me: The Lollipop Shoppe were hot. They would regularly be opening for The Doors, The Seeds, Moby Grape, a few times with Buffalo Springfield and one-offs with Janis Joplin, Jefferson Airplane and the likes, sometimes stretching songs like "Underground Railroad" to thirty minutes.
This is 60’s garage / psychedelia at it’s best.
A long time awaited reissue, beautifully remastered by Mark “bosshoss” Taylor.
Both versions CD and LP have 6 extra tracks to the original album
and the
LP comes in 180 grams audiophile vinyl.
Front Cover: The Crystal Ballroom in Portland Oregon.
