History
After the successful album Incense & Peppermints, the band began recording the second album. The first single, " Tomorrow ", was released back in December 1967. He reached 23 position in the charts. The second, " Sit With the Guru ", appeared on the shelves in March 1968 and ranked 65th. An additional advertisement for the album was the film Psych-Out , where the song “ Pretty Song From Psych-Out ” first appeared. The album is a mixture of different styles and sounds. This album has noticeably reduced the participation of Steve Bartek, who quit after the release of the album.
