Austin, Texas band formed in 1966. George Kinney (voc, guitar), Tom Ramsey (lead guitar), Jimmy Bird (rhythm guitar), Bill Hallmark (bass), and Bobby Rector (drums). Produced by Rogers, (Kenny Rogers brother), 1967's Power Plant actually bares a strong resemblance to The 13th Floor Elevators' catalog. The two bands certainly share the same mid-60s; low-tech Texas-psych roots. As a small label with little in the way of resources, International Artists did little to promote the LP nationally. Frustrated with the situation, Kinney promptly tendered his notice, relocating to California. The band subsequently collapsed with Hallmark reappeared as a member of Rubyyat. 01 - Evolution 02 - This Way Please 03 - Starvation 04 - I'll Be Around 05 - Seeing Is Believing 06 - My Time 07 - A Nice Surprise 08 - Every Day 09 - Tell Me Why 10 - Reaching Out To You LINK
