SKU
05-SP 1010LP
A great document of the Prunes live in Sweden on 12/14/67 at the peak of their powers. Recorded live for Swedish Radio, who - considering the time period we are dealing with - really understood how to record loud, psychedelic bands! Excellent quality & super psychedelic fun!
"In the winter of 1967, a psychedelic-garage-punk band from Woodland Hills, California arrived in Europe for what would be their first and last tour of the continent. On the strength of their hit single 'I Had Too Much to Dream Last Night,' the band was welcomed with open arms by European rock fans as well as British rock royalty -- they smoked out with Hendrix, partied with Brian Jones and Keith Moon, and hung out in the studio with the Beatles -- but were also subjected to harassment and ridicule over the fact that their homeland was at war in Vietnam. On the last stop of the tour someone pushed the record button and this artifact is the result. Stockholm '67 finds the Electric Prunes at the height of the powers. Over-amplified and fuzzed to the max, the 'Prunes here are explosive, noisy, and wild. This recording proves that the Electric Prunes deserve to be ranked alongside the very best bands of their era. 180 gram vinyl in a gatefold sleeve."
