WILLIAM PENN FYVE - Swami / Blow My Mind (Guerssen) 7"
First ever band-sanctioned reissue of this legendary Pebbles garage-psych 45 from 1967. William Penn Fyve aka William Penn & His Pals were a regular presence on the early Bay Area scene, opening for the likes of Jefferson Airplane, Paul Revere & the Raiders and Them. In 1966 they recorded their lone single, “Swami” / “Blow My Mind”, for the Thunderbird label. The A-side (written by guitar player Mike Shapiro and famous for being included on Pebbles Volume 3: The Acid Gallery is early acid-punk with fuzzed-out raga guitars and hilarious lyrics about a guru. The flipside is an energetic garage-punk number with swirling Vox organ and a fuzz rave up á la Yardbirds.
Comes in a cool picture sleeve. SIGNED by Mike Shapiro.
