Kak - Kak-Ola (us 1969) Great Hippie Psych Rock



Psychelatte says: If you like this, you may also like the criminally underrated Tripsichord.

This highly talented, underrated band from Sacramento in California produced what is now one of the most sought-after psychedelic albums. Mellow laid-back tracks like I've Got Time and Flowing By are merged with up-tempo numbers like Disbelievin' and Electric Sailor. The excellent guitar playing of Patten and Yoder is evident throughout the album. Most tracks, particularly the final oneLemonaide Kid had considerable commercial potential and the band was clearly a victim of under-exposure, They disbanded in 1970. Yoder had earlier managed The Oxford Circle, issued a solo 45 Good Time Music/Flight From The East (Epic 10560) in 1970 and then played for a while in Blue Cheer. Patten was also in The Oxford Circle, and Damrell in Group "B". They performed various style of acid rock. This album was their only work and psychedelic classics.
