Creepy John Thomas was in fact an alias for Australian singer-guitarist Johnny Driver, who had enjoyed considerable success back home with the Flies, even supporting the Rolling Stones. Recorded by the legendary Conny Plank and released in late 1969, this terrific album combines psychedelic rock, blues and folk to spellbinding effect, and makes its long-awaited return to CD here.
