Wiki:
British psychedlic band consisting of Peter Dunton (vocals/guitar/keyboards/drums), Bernard Jinks (bass guitar/backing vocals) and Nick Spenser (guitar/harmonium/keyboards). In 1967, Neon Pearl released the album 1967 Recordings, which is a fine example of experimental British psychedelia with its hazy riffs, mild guitar distortions and vocal harmonies. Dunton was also in the marginally less obscure British psychedelic bands the Flies and Please, while Jinks later played in Bulldog Breed and T2, the latter also including Dunton. Popular songs included "Forever", "Going With The Flow", "Just Another Day", "Out Of Sight" and "What Do You See".

Cosmic Dreams:
Another of those obscure bands about which there is little information. Delusion (1972) is one of the rarest albums on the legendary Pilz label, and therefore hunted by collectors all over the globe. It has the typical German heavy progressive underground sound, based on loud guitars, trembling organ and flute. The sleeve generously credited the following people: "the Hamburg police appears during the session by kindly arrangement of enthusiastic neighbours"! The album contained five tracks in all. "Dream of a Drummer" is slightly matted by a long drum solo, otherwise there is much to enjoy here. "What Are You Doin'" contained an anti-drug message:
'You know all live together,
want freedom and space
Young people know forever,
and see there's no release
Stop what you 're doing,
you make yourself a ruin
Stop takin ' trips, snow horse and shit
The better world, you know, can't find it
Drugs never find an end,
it's you, you that bend
The price is high, believe me, I don't lie!"
(From "What Are You Doin'")
This track, "Time is Flying" and "Delusion" are the highlights of this recommended album, produced by Konrad Plank. As with so many contemporaries, McChurch Soundroom recorded just one album and then disappeared into obscurity (after the folding of Pilz in 1973).

Fuzz Acid & Flowers:
This anonymous outfit's album, which has been likened to outfits like The Ill Wind and Neighborhood Childr'n, is now a minor collectable. In fact it's far heavier than either of these two and doesn't feature female lead vocals either. It does however merge psyche and heavy rock, with some excellent Hendrix inspired lead guitar work on Johnny and Glance At The Past. All their material was original and it was produced by Pat Perticone at New York's A&R studios.
The long liner notes, written by Paul Welsh, state that their name came from the Maypole erected by the people of Merrymount in New England in the 17th Century to break most of the Puritan laws, stating that "Maypole intends to combine the techniques of literature in lyrics and structure with the feeling generated by our music to communicate the "real" to an unlimited audience". ~ (Vernon Joynson/Stephane Rebeschini)

Crack In The Cosmic Egg: Originating from Hannover, it's not so
surprising (as a late arrival on the scene) that Madison Dyke's complex
progressive with hard-rock tendencies, was often similar to Jane and Harlis.
Their LP had lengthy tracks with extended instrumentals, with a touch more
lyrical fantasy akin to Genesis, and was rather out of character at the time
it was released. No history is known. It had been suggested that
Jьrgen Baumann could be the Baumann of Baumann/Koek, but this is not so. He
later resurfaced in the band
Firehorse.
