Description

- Complete with a 40-page booklet, featuring a detailed history of the WCPAEB by Gray Newell profusely illustrated with rare photos and ephemera.
The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, an unlikely musical collaboration between a trio of well-heeled teenage musicians from the Hollywood Hills and a wealthy wannabe- hipster playboy in his mid- 30s, are regarded by those in the know as one of the most idiosyncratic groups to emerge during the psychedelic era, attracting a devoted cult following thanks to their unique sound.

The WCPAEB recorded three albums for Reprise between 1966 and 1968, and this collection captures the group at their creative peak. In addition to the mono and stereo mixes of the albums and some edited 45 releases, this set also features an abundance of previously unissued recordings, including out-takes from ‘Volume 2’ and an entire alternate version of ‘A Child’s Guide To Good And Evil’ that offers a fascinating insight into the production of that album, as well as a rare radio promo spot.

The set has been lovingly remastered by Alec Palao and also includes a 40-page booklet featuring an extensive history of the WCPAEB by Gray Newell packed with rare photos and other memorabilia.
