Originally recorded in 1965 for Doug Dobell's 77 label this is the cd re-issue.
Peter Comton ran the band as a rehearsal band of semi-pros and studio musicians but included in the ranks on this recording are Art Themen and Ray Warleigh. This was the band's only commercial recording and a fine one it is too.
