20 garage folk gems from the USA Psychic Circle are delighted to present a new compilation for your listening enjoyment. THE ELECTRIC COFFEE HOUSE concentrates on that Byrds-inspired period when folk plugged into amplifiers and came up with a sound built on 12 string guitars and harmonies, but with a generous helping of rock and roll added to the mix.
The album comprises 20 tracks previously uncomped on CD from such disparate artists as Elvis Presley's favourite garage band, a blind singer discovered by Davy Jones of The Monkees, a Mexican band who had to learn their lyrics phonetically, and the young Terry Jacks (of 'Seasons In The Sun' notoriety), plus a host of other harmonising hopefuls.
