the jelly bean bandids

Although poised on the threshold of stardom in the late 60's armed with a multi-album record contract, a growing fan base, and a release that leaped to #1 in Boston, in Louisiana, and in Florida, The Jellybean Bandits fully expected to follow in the successful footsteps of their fellow 'labelmates', Big Brother & the Holding Company and The Amboy Dukes. Instead they managed to record only this one gem, a freakbeat cult classic distinguished by Jack Dougherty's emotive guitar.
