V.O.S. Trio [197x] Yesterday & Today

Entire first side of this LP is top level garage lounge with organ/guitar/drums trio backup opening with a bit of "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is" used as a track titled "Intro-Time", then an A plus organ garage groover titled "In Bed", then a flowing "Let My Woman Flow", a deep organ "Theme From The Godfather", then a superb garage rock track with fuzz guitar titled "Voyage" and to top it off a full version of the Paul McCartney hit "Uncle Albert". The whole side rules for this bag. Other side is one long garage rock and roll medley epic. Private press circa '70 on Valley Of Sound Records # KHP-303 titled "Yesterday & Today". Same band who had the "Super Lemon" LP which also is a top lounge garage item. [PM]

According to band leader Gare Rex [sic], the V.O.S. Trio cut five LP's, of which the first three are considered embarrassments (or, translated to the Third Eye Lounge, their only relevant work). [ed]
