This was an experimental band from the 60s who was who were way ahead of their time for alot of the new music coming out today. Any, there are two albums they released before they had to go into hiding.
If you have either or both releases. I am interested!

    ^^^^ Why does that album seem significant for some reason? Has it been posted here before?

    Thank you sir....I have found some copies on Ebay. They are pretty rare and the band was way ahead if their time. There second release has a pic on the cover inside the cockpit of whats clearly a Pan Am aircraft, which Pan Am agreed to. The back cover is a pic of the band sitting in aircraft crash site...which Pan Am did not agree to. A big lawsuit ensured and long story short...the band had to disappear for legal reasons.

    My post up there is a video. Just click on it. They talk about that Pan-Am issue. I forgot to mention it was a video that popped up on my feed today.
