The Brain Police were one of San Diego's most popular late-60s groups.
Rick Randle had been in The Other Four/The Man-Dells and Tony Johnson and Frank Mannix came
from Sandi and The Accents, two bands that had been local phenomenons. In 1967, Norman Lombardo (The Other Four)
and Sid Smith, a local drummer who had led a group called The Roosters who issued a 45 on A&M Records in 1964,
(Sid plays drums and sings lead vocals on this!) replaced Johnson and Mannix. This was the magical line-up that
recorded the demo album in 1968. Recorded on a primitive 4-track machine, the record displays a degree of
talent seldom seen in a teenage band. Through a unique combination of pop songs and heavy rock
(all original material, written by Rick and Norman) The Brain Police created a remarkable document
of American rock's transitionary period between flower-power and the guitar-led heavy rock that dominated
the scene in 1969. The original demo album was pressed for promo use and the copies were sent to club owners
and record labels - it is impossibly rare - the Rockadelic reissue is highly recommended,
providing, of course, that you can find it!...(Fuzz Acid & Flowers)
