The Leathercoated Minds was a 1966-67 psychedelic studio-based band masterminded largely by Snuff Garrett and J J Cale. The band produced one album, ''A Trip down the Sunset Strip'', co-produced by Cale and Garrett, and released in stereo and mono versions on Garrett's ''Viva'' label in 1967 〔Viva Records V36003 (USA) (Viva Records (U.S.) is Snuff Garrett's label)〕 and on the Fontana label in Europe;〔Fontana Records TL5412 (Mono); STL5412 (Stereo) (UK releases)〕 later the mono issue re-released on CD in 2006,〔Sundazed Records SC 6231 CD (Released 2006 in collaboration with Snuff Garrett Productions)〕 remastering co-produced by Garrett. The album contains a mixture of cover versions of psychedelic hits from around 1966, together with four original instrumentals of Cale's composition, illustrating a snapshot of Cale's guitar style at the time. The album includes instrumental tracks and some quirky, heavily psychedelic vocal takes, together with snippets of conversations and automobile noise between the tracks. These abstract sounds, used almost as a form of Musique concrète, were recorded on West Hollywood, California's Sunset Strip specifically for the album. The band's instrumental take on Puff, the Magic Dragon suggests a rising level of psychotic intoxication as the track progresses ... ==Band members== The CD notes bear reference to: J J Cale, Roger Tillison, Terrye Newkirk, Bill Boatman, Gary Gilmore, Chuck Blackwell, Jimmy ''Junior'' Markham (erroneously referred to as Peter ''Junior'' Markham), and Jimmy Karstein (mis-spelt Carstein in the notes) Note: Bill Boatman co-wrote "Soul Food" with Markham. It was recorded by Leon Russell. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Leathercoated Minds」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
