Molkie Cole (the name inspired by a deaf cat one of the members owned) came together in 1972, showcasing the talents of brothers Pat (guitar) and Tim Cole (drums), rounded out by guitarist Philip James, lead guitarist Paul Pope, and keyboardist Bob Steinmetz. The band's career almost came to a premature ending when a fire destroyed the barn they were practicing in. The fire also destroyed most of their equipment (and was commemorated in Neon Parks' album cover art). Blending bar boogie and more theatrical moves (most of the online concert reviews take great pleasure in mentioning the band's penchants for dry ice and bubble machines), he band became fairly popular throughout Northeast Ohio and Western New York.

In 1974 the band recorded a four song demo for the Ohio based Owl label. Owl passed on the band, but pressed at least one copy of the demo (I've also seen a reference to 50 copies). Today the demo (housed in a generic white sleeve) commands a pretty stiff asking price. I've seen one dealer asking $500
