Experimental Explorations with The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band

Stuart revisits the seminal Californian psychedelic rock band's strange and eerie album from 1968, A Child's Guide To Good & Evil. A fascinating backstory; the band was led by wealthy LA playboy and adopted son of an oil tycoon, Bob Markley who offered to bankroll the group's career and secure them a recording contract in exchange for being their frontman and vocalist. Considered to be the band's most accomplished work and a masterpiece of the psychedelic genre, the record combines melancholic folk-rock ballads, pop harmonies and bizarre lyrics with dark undercurrents.
