Children Of The Mushroom
Lady
2025 Out-Sider

First ever release of post-Children Of The Mushroom heavy prog studio/live recordings from 1971. Formed in California in 1967, Children of the Mushroom were the quintessential garage-psych band. As the times evolved, the band hardened their sound, shortening their name to Mushroom. By 1970, Mushroom became Lady, incorporating prog-rock influences and instruments like flute to their hard-pych organ/guitar dominated sound, drawing inspiration from bands like Jethro Tull, Steamhammer, Gypsy, or Bloodrock. In 1971 the band recorded a few studio demos at Village Recorders in Los Angeles, which are presented here in top sound quality along with a couple of raw, lo-fi but killer live tracks from the same year. Long tracks, heavy fuzz guitar, Hammond organ, flute, and powerful vocals. Remastered sound. Includes insert with liner notes by Klemen Breznikar (It's Psychedelic Baby) and rare photos. Also includes download card with three live bonus tracks.
