POP. MIND GARAGE – RCA Victor LSP 4218 (S)

A highly musical rock group with a big, deep sound and soaring harmonies, the Mind Garage offers creative melodies and a fine studio album to showcase their talents. Lead singer Larry McClurg heads the harmony on all the group-penned songs, while organist Jack Bonasso and guitarist John Vaughan adds vocal and instrumental excitement on «Back Down Home», «Sweet Potato» and «What’s Behind Those Eyes». A new group that will score big. [Billboard Magazine (Album Reviews, October 18, 1969)]
