...released on th'airplanes vanity label grunt in th'early seventies came this power trio style blowout with lashin's o' hendrix vibes counter'd with some mellower grooves interspersed between th'heavy rockin'blues...came as a bit o' a surprise at th' time cos most west coast heads were expectin' some warmed over/burnt out hippy shenanigans what with bein' on th'plane label'n they themselves not really doin' anything 'revolutionary' for a good couple years...vaguely on th'same wavelength as kapt. kopter(randy california)this is a refreshin' blast o' late hard rockin' acid choogle with a sense o' humor'n good nature that will go down a nice treat with an afternoons bong...

Am digging your lobe-melting posts to the max, o spaced one. A perfect entry for your blog, though years since I've seen a copy: 'Crabtunes & Noggins' by Banana and sundry other Youngbloods on their Raccoon label handled by Warners. A great index of how funky and beyond laid-back life could get in Point Reyes, the whole lp is comprised of several attempts to get two tunes recorded properly; not long tunes either. seemed like a final delivery required by contract if ever I've heard one. If i can find a copy, i'll digitize and upload for you...
