ENDLE ST. CLOUD
ENDLE ST. CLOUD-IN THE RAIN (on labels)
Endle St. Cloud was the lead singer and piano player. Peter Black (formerly of the Lost and Found) played guitar,
David F. Potter (of Los Angeles' East Side Kids) added drums, and Andrew Melinger
(formerly of Houston's the Iguanas) was the bassist. The group originally formed in early 1968
under the name Endle St. Cloud in the Rain, by which they released the single "Tell Me One More Time
(What's Happening to Our World)" backed with "Quest for Beauty." Neither of these songs appears on
the group's sole long-player, Thank You All Very Much, which was released later the same year.
(Interestingly, although the sleeve shortened the band's name to Endle St. Cloud, the label keeps
the group's original, more mysterious name.) More than a year later, when International Artists was trying
to come up with a charting follow-up to Bubble Puppy's surprise hit "Hot Smoke and Sassafras," two songs
were pulled from this album, "She Wears It Like a Badge" and "Laughter," and released as a single
credited simply to Endle, further muddying the nomenclatural waters.
By this time, the group had split up; Endle St. Cloud and D.F. Potter split Texas for Los Angeles,
where they hooked up with three local musicians and released a self-titled album
as Potter St. Cloud on the Mediarts label in 1971...(AllMusic)

A typically freaky 1968 release from the estimably freaky Texas label International Artists,
Thank You All Very Much is an all-over-the-map blend of guitar-based heavy psych, early country-rock,
and an oddball music hall sound possibly influenced by the Kinks (especially on the jaunty "Jessica")
and certainly unusual for a Texan group of their era...(AllMusic)
