AldousLeary's video: Merrell Fankhauser H M S Bounty - A Visit With Ashiya 1968

About the album "Things", where this track is on: One of the all-time lost 60's classic albums. This 1968 release comes to you courtesy of cult legend Merrell Fankhauser, who also brought forth the Exiles and later the band Mu (a collaboration with guitarist Jeff Cotton). But the HMS Bounty album is really something special. Influences include Cream, Buffalo Springfield and probably the Association and Strawberry Alarm Clock as well. The songs are all extremely catchy, but with enough heavy guitars and psychedelic textures to keep things interesting. (The first two tracks are actually more in a sunshine pop/ blue-eyed soul vein, but they're still totally excellent songs.) All in all, this record is a lost treasure and comes enthusiastically endorsed by this fan! source: http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/merrell_fankhauser_and_h_m_s__bounty/things/
