A 1960s English psychedelic quartet known for the 1967 LP This Is the Magic Mixture, recorded quickly for a small independent label. The album is praised for its near-live sound and songwriting by guitarist Jim Thomas.

Recorded twelve songs in a rushed 1967 London session for a small label that went out of business; originated from a larger student band. Members and associates mentioned in reviews include guitarist Jim Thomas (songwriter/vocalist), earlier involvement of Jimmy Collins (later of Thunderclap Newman and Wings) and Simon Kirke (later of Free and Bad Company). The band's drummer Jack Collins later used the pseudonym Jack McCulloch and is linked in the review to Five Day Week Straw People, Andwella's Dream and Andromeda.

A 1967 English psychedelic quartet recorded the LP This Is the Magic Mixture in a single rushed session for a small label that folded. The DeBaser review praises the band's creativity, performance and the album's sincere, near-live sound. The record is described as sought-after by psychedelic collectors and fits the late-60s English psych/pop/garage context.

For:Collectors and fans of 1960s English psychedelic/garage music and psychedelic-pop enthusiasts.

 An album dismissed by the so-called rye academy critics as just another bad copy of the Cream, this record, born out of the most mysterious English underground, has actually become over the years a truly legendary album.
