A highly consistently good effort by this group, reputed to have been from Las Vegas, where they regularly performed, but this remains unconfirmed. I have also heard they originated from Tex. The music is semi-commercial, prog tinged rock, with lots of horns, and supposed psych influences, though this latter escapes me except on the massiv “Flower Pot”.
