A unique capsule of a funky psychedelic rhythm section jamming, with snarling, stabbing and swooshing cranked-up-to-infinity electric guitar voyages piloted by Wrecking Crew veteran Jerry Cole, polished and primed for takeoff with a string section playing eerie, beckoning melodies in unison. The 10 tracks here were first issued sans strings in 1967 as The Animated Egg, with alternate song titles. Two years later, the recordings were overdubbed with the swirling, piercing, phase-shifting strings mix you hear here, creating a spectacular fusion of psych-rock, R&B, easy listening and fuzz guitar with hints of the coming worlds of ambient and electronica. A classic late '60s exploito release, available again at last!
