The Poppy Family was a late 1960s and early 1970s Canadian pop music group, based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Singer/songwriter Terry Jacks met eighteen year old Susan Pesklevits in the late 1960s, and together they formed a band called "The Powerline", which was soon renamed "Winkin' Blinkin' & Nob". At Pesklevits' insistence, the name was eventually changed to "The Poppy Family". The name was chosen when Terry Jacks picked the word Poppy at random from a dictionary. The two were married at approximately the same time that The Poppy Family recorded their first album, and Pesklevits was henceforth known as Susan Jacks. Which Way You Goin' Billy?, released in 1969, was the first album The Poppy Family. They scored their biggest hit with title track "Which Way You Goin' Billy?". The album has yet to be released on modern formats and remains a rare vinyl. The Poppy Family disbanded in 1973. 01 - That's Where I Went Wrong 02 - Free From The City 03 - Beyond The Clouds 04 - A Good Thing Lost 05 - You Took My Moonlight Away 06 - There's No Blood In Bone 07 - Happy Island 08 - Which Way You Goin' Billy 09 - Shadows On My Wall 10 - What Can The Matter Be 11 - For Running Wild 12 - Of Cities And Escapes LINK
Babe Ruth are a rock music group, primarily active through the 1970s, from Hatfield, Hertfordshire, England. Their characteristically 'heavy' sound is marked by powerful vocals from Janita Haan and full arrangements by Alan Shacklock. They are acknowledged as having more commercial success in North America than in their home country. When the group was first formed in 1971, they were called Shacklock after their guitarist Alan Shacklock. Members included Janita Haan and Dave Hewitt, with Dave Punshon and Dick Powell later joining. The first release was their single "Elusive"; their first album, First Base, went gold in Canada, sold well in the US, but had disappointing sales by comparison in the UK. The song "The Mexican" has been covered and mixed many times. Among them, it was covered in 1984 by John "Jellybean" Benitez with vocals by the original singer, Janita Haan. "The Mexican" was mixed into the third track of The Dirtchamber Sessions Volume One by Liam Howlett of The Prodigy in 1999. The sleeve design, painting and photography were by Roger Dean. Engineered by Tony Clark and Kete Go at EMI Studios, Abbey Road between June and September 1972. 01 - Wells Fargo 02 - Runaways 03 - King Kong 04 - Black Dog 05 - Mexican 06 - Joker LINK
The Third Eye was a Heavy prog-psych group from South Africa. Ron Selby, who played lead guitar in South Africa’s premier heavy-prog band the Third Eye, recruited his kid sister to play organ in the band. And with then-14-year-old Dawn Selby at the keys, the Third Eye released a trio of psychedelic nuggets in 1969-70 that could have been stiff competition for the likes of such similar-sounding acts as Chicago Transit Authority, Alice Cooper, and the Electric Flag had the US and Europe not banned groups from South Africa on account of the growing Apartheid movement there. The scarcity of original copies of these albums, recorded and released on Polydor, make 1969’s Awakening… and its follow-up Searching and 1970’s Brother worth quite a small fortune on the collector’s market. 01 - A Sad Tail 02 - Selby's Hospitality 03 - Retain Your Half Ticket 04 - Stagemakers 05 - Awakening 06 - I Can't Believe It LINK
Orang Utan, previously known as Hunter, was a British heavy psych blues rock band from London. Terry "Nobby" Clark (vocals), Mick Clarke (guitar), Sid Fairman (guitar), Paul Roberts (bass) and Jeff Seopardie (drums)."Great one off album from this early 70's UK five piece. Hard Rock with a blues background by the sound of things, great guitar and vocals. This one should appeal to fans of Leafhound, Led Zeppelin, Free etc. Only released in West Germany at the time, their self-titled 1970 album has come to the attention of a wider audience since its cd rerelease on Lizard Records in the late 1990s. Give this one a shot, there's at least one classic track on here, (opener, "I Can See Inside Your Head"), but the rest of the material is of a very high standard too. Vocals are in the Pete French/Paul Rogers style, the feller has a great set of pipes. Just a pity they didn't record more than this one album. As a legacy, it's slim, but groaning with quality.” 01 - I Can See Inside Your Head 02 - Slipping Away 03 - Love Queen 04 - Chocolate Piano 05 - If You Leave 06 - Fly Me High 07 - Country Hike 08 - Magic Playground LINK

The band was also joined by John Kahn (piano), Charley Schoning (piano), and Gerald Oshita (flute-baritone sax). "There are different bands with the name Southern Comfort. They got a very west-coasty blues rock sound kinda like Pacific Gas & Electric."(RT66) 01 - Wild Western Cheetah 02 - Talking 'bout My Babe 03 - Mountain Girl 04 - Ride On Mary 05 - All Day Long 06 - Love Got Me 07 - Come On And Sit Down Beside Me 08 - Get Back 09 - Who Knows 10 - Just Like A Friend LINK
