A little History...
Tiffany Shade was an American psychedelic rock band formed in 1966 in Cleveland, Ohio.They broke up 1968. They recorded and released one self-titled LP and two singles from the same album on the Mainstream label in 1968 prior to their demise.
Tiffany Shade was formed by keyboardist Bob Leonard (b. May 27, 1945), Folk Guitarist/vocalist Mike Barnes (b. May 21, 1948), 12-string guitarist/vocalist Barrow Davidian (deceased), bassist Rick Hohn, later replaced by bassist Robb Clarke-Murphy (b. September 26, 1944, d. September 2010) and drummer Tom Schuster (deceased). On March 2, 1968, Tiffany Shade appeared at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit on the same bill as Big Brother and the Holding Company, the MC5 and the Pink Peech Mob. They also appeared at the Grande Ballroom again on April 5, 1968 along with The Troggs and the MC5.
After Tiffany Shade album's release, the band made numerous appearances in their hometown of Cleveland, Ohio and at the Sugarbush ski resort in Warren, Vermont before disbanding in late 1968.
After the band's breakup, keyboardist Bob Leonard went on to play with Mink DeVille appearing on the bands 1978 debut LP, Cabretta, and touring Europe to support the release. Leonard also appeared on Mink DeVille's 1979 album Return to Magenta Recordings.
The group recorded one album and two singles for Jazz Producer Bob Shad's Mainstream label. (US LP Release info: Mainstream S/T 56015, Stereo S/6105. UK LP release info: Fontana TL 5469). Both the US and UK platters were released in 1968. The Mainstream label also issued two Singles: "Would You Take My Mind Out For a Walk" / "One Good Reason" released as Mainstream 677 in 1968 & "An Older Man"/ "Sam" released as Mainstream 680 also released in 1968).
Shads' Mainstream label was home to many other psychedelic bands in the late 1960s including Janis Joplin's first band Big Brother and the Holding Company (Mainstream S/6099 released in 1967), The Tangerine Zoo (Mainstream S/6107), Ellie Pop (Mainstream S/6115), The Superfine Dandelion (Mainstream S/6102), The Growing Concern (Mainstream S/6108) and The Amboy Dukes. According to band member Mike Barnes, Tiffany Shade album, like most Bob Shad produced/Mainstream releases, was not promoted very well and the band and the LP faded from the scene with very little fanfare.
Today, the original LP can fetch as much as $150 to $300 at auction in near mint condition. The Mainstream catalog has since been handed down to Bob Shads' children and several titles from the Mainstream catalog have recently been reissued on 180 gram vinyl.
