LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

‘The Original Psychedelic Dream’
• Episode Sixteen in the Cornflake Zoo Series
• 20-page full colour booklet
• comprehensive liner notes
• rare colour photographs

From the author of The Underwear of Empires; It’s How We Wore Them That Matters comes a sublime collection of symbolic mod pop from the original psychedelic era. Dripping with drama, intrigue and passionate loins, Cornflake Zoo returns to that shapely bottom of the charts to conjure up the essence of late 1960s pop gold. ‘tis a shameless pop diversion that embraces big hair, floppy kaftans and turquoise corduroy. Or as a delightful old dear, supplied with a rousing, stiff Pimms once casually remarked: “Give it to me one more time!” Prepare to be enamoured as Cornflake Zoo is caught with its trousers down for the 16th time!! This is pop at its creative peak. Enjoy!
