Album Notes & Community Reviews

Notoriously fabricated by their record label to fulfill contractual obligations, this release consists primarily of studio outtakes and earlier recordings with entirely fake crowd noise overdubbed onto the tracks. Despite its artificial nature, the album remains a blistering, if flawed, document of the pioneering Texas psychedelic band's raw garage rock energy.
