Amazing 1968 debut by the Canadian psych band who later became Chilliwack. A very psychedelic album, produced by Rolling Stones/Electric Prunes producer Dave Hassinger - the first 5 tracks are cool enough melodic psych 60's styled numbers (the highlight being Lydia Purple) whilst the 6th track "What Love" is a 19 minute trip of sax, flute, gregorian chant and psychedelic guitar that under the right circumstances fries your mind! Unmissable! Freak Emporium

woooo! I so wanted this, but I can't unzip the files. I just keep getting an error. I'm on a mac and have tried both stuffit and MacPAR. I've downloaded it twice now, no luck. Any help?
I was already looking for this album for a long time. Great!
But the pasword does n't work!!!

Stuffit says: Format error #17540
Can you please help?
I was looking for this one a long time and here it is...
Thanks!
Anonymous 2 to Anonymous 1: download Unrar for Mac Os X a bit strange but it works! Don't forget to fill in the password first in the program!

many thanks for the Unrar link...only got 14 of the tracks, but thats better than none!
Amous1: you will certainly want those other 4 or 5 numbers too. Figure it out. They are in the second link. It took me a while too. Unrar is a bit unusual in its behaviour.
Annonomus 2: I am adding the second file (dragging both in at the same time) but it comes up with errors on the last ones. I'll try again later!

Amous1: Do them one by one. After the first unrar, rename the folder. And then do the next one, again on desktop and with pw. I think I did it this way.
Very nice album, thank you Lisa!
Oh yes
Thanks
Stunning music!! Another great find, I'd never heard of this band before.
Thanks so much for the opportunity to discover and listen.
Cheers

Thank you Lisa, I probably would never have known about this band.
