LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

SRC (short for The Scott Richardson Case) was a Detroit-based rock band formed in 1966, emerging from the vibrant Michigan music scene. The group was known for their blend of heavy, guitar-driven psychedelia and progressive rock elements, with a focus on melodic sophistication and introspective lyrics. Featuring Glenn Quackenbush's distinctive keyboards and Gary Quackenbush's intricate guitar work, SRC became a prominent act in the Midwest, influencing later generations of rock bands.

SRC's self-titled debut album, released in 1968, is a cornerstone of the Detroit psychedelic rock scene. The record showcases the band’s dynamic interplay of soaring guitar solos, rich organ textures, and Scott Richardson’s emotive vocals. Highlights include "Black Sheep", "Daystar", and "Refugeve from the Night", all of which capture the group’s balance of raw energy and atmospheric soundscapes. The album is celebrated for its polished production and innovative approach, solidifying SRC as one of the most talented yet underrated bands of their era.
