Led by Fred Cole, later of Dead Moon, the Lollipop Shoppe were originally the Weeds until they were convinced to change their name to appeal to 1960s bubblegum-pop audiences. However, their lone album features a much harder sound than the name implies. Mixing garage rock with a West Coast-sounding touch of psychedelia, JUST COLOUR features fuzz-tone guitar riffs galore, trippy lyrics, & a balance between rock balladry & punky, NUGGETS-ish energy. ...

Chances are, most listeners familiar with " Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" have no idea that Looking Glass are the band that recorded the song. It was one of many instant smash hits from unknown artists that crowded the AM airwaves in the early '70s. Like almost all of their peers, Looking Glass never had another major hit, although " Jimmy Loves Mary-Anne" climbed its way into the Top 40 a year later. Instead, all their rage & glory was in " Brandy, an irresistible soft rock tune about the sweet ...
