There’s some Zappa influence on this LP ~ here’s but one example of their lyrics:

"I’ve got a psychedelic baby
She wears LSD perfume
When she’s flying
You’d better give us some room"
here’s an exerpt from the psych reference " Fuzz Acid & Flowers":

As musicians and artists the Influence really outclassed anything else around
Walter Rossi was a superb guitarist. You should have heard us live..."
It was also innovative, and had confidence that it was cutting edge
and could compete on any stage. Toronto Village in Summer 1967
was great - lots of talent and a real buzz.
