The Lemon Drops were pioneers of a psychedelic flower-power sound in and around the Chicago suburbs in 1967. The mastermind behind their music was Rembrandt Records' owner Reggie Weiss. The first song he wrote for the Lemon Drops was inspired by the effects of a LSD trip and titled 'I Live In The Springtime'. Long recognized as a classic example of psychedelic folk-rock, and has appeared on the Rhino Nuggets Box Set, Pebbles vol. 8, and many other comps. In addition to the shimmering splendor of 'I Live In The Springtime', The Lemon Drops left behind a great legacy of music during their brief two-year tenure. Included on the 2CD set are many previously unreleased recordings (including two different versions of "I Live In The Springtime') and a 12 page booklet with extensive liner notes and band memorabilia."
