1968 WEST COAST POP PSYCH ORIGINAL COLLECTIBLE
***STILL FACTORY SEALED*** NEVER OPENED...
The FAMILY TREE
MISS BUTTERS
\ USA - dog label RCA VICTOR - LSP 359 Stereo
NEVER OPENED = FACTORY SEALED....
Scarce 1968 original first pressing that created a buzz with collectors...
The Family Tree were not your usual WEST COAST band, infact, though they were from the San Francisco area, they sounded more like a 'swinging London' British pop psych band in direction of "Sgt Pepper" featuring catchy tunes that grow with repeat plays and all the 'pepperland' styled production ...
A Classic of West Coast Psychpop, and a much sought after gem....after the breakup of San Francisco garage groups The Brogues ("Ain't No Miracle Worker"), most members went on to Quicksilver Messenger Service....bassist Bill Whittington formed the Family Tree with Bob Segarini of the Ratz and the enigmatic Lee Michaels....the latter soon dropped out, and a couple of innovative singles for the mysterious Los Angeles based Mira Label brought them to the attention of not only RCA, but singer songwriter, Harry Nilsson....with input from Harry (at this time being hailed as a genius by the Beatles and writing songs for everyone from the Monkees and the Turtles on down) the FAMILY TREE Embarked on the semi-conceptual album "Miss Butters"....an amazing semi-lost gem of West Coast psychpop genius on a par with "Sgt Pepper" Beatles styles, songs and hooks.
