Album Notes: On the 40th Anniversary of the summer of love and flower power classic Lets Go To San Francisco , we present the story behind the song and the group. An interesting story unfolds as the studio recordings of John Carter and team take on a life as a real band which brought in a further crop of outstanding performers. We begin with the build up pre-…San Francisco songs by group members such as Neil Landon, John Carter, Russ Alquist, through the Rain Rain Rain recording which used the Mellotron to such great effect and prefaced its later use by Carter on …San Francisco just a couple of months later, onto the hit, and the various attempts at a follow up using different artist names. The subsequent live group was led by vocalist Tony Burrows, but at times included future Deep Purple members Jon Lord and Nick Simper in the backing band. Our sleeve notes have new interviews with most of the writers and artists involved talking of their experiences with the group. Previously unreleased tracks, alternate versions, original mono versions, tracks unreleased at the time, all combine to make this a collectors gem, and a totally worthy celebration of the 40th anniversary. Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the classic Summer of Love anthem. Newly re-mastered recordings with many tracks unique to the package and the gorgeous booklet read more
