King George Discovery is a Swedish rock band that was heavily influenced by the Jimi Hendrix movement. Their self-titled
album was released on Haparanda Records in 1968. The sound here is incredible! There is plenty of wailing guitar and
songwriting that lets you know these guys were having a ball when recording this record. The song “Smokey” has a smoking
intro and chorus that contains an interpolation of “Get Ready”, which was a Motown classic. Performed by The Temptations,
and most likely written by Smokey Robinson. Hence the most likely reason they titled it “Smokey”. the music was particularly
influenced by Jimi Hendrix Experience and soul artists. Discovery was a well-celebrated live band, and they performed for
instance at the Sweden's biggest festival of 1968 in Timrå. Also their self-titled LP released in 1968 got an excellent reception.

This record is a musthave for all psych fans and dj´s. Check the soundfiles!
