Sixties UK freakbeat legends get a new legit re–release of their complete available recordings and Guerssen is the proud new home for them.

A real cult freakbeat & psychedelic group, well–known for such all–time classics as "Path through the forest" and "Try a little sunshine", Factory released only a couple of 45s (both of them obscenely rare and paid big$$$ when rarely showing up). Here we get the 4 tracks appearing on these 45s, plus a couple tracks taken from acetates (killer covers of Family’s "Second generation woman" and Fairport Convention’s "Mr. Lacey"), as well as a new mix of "Path through the forest" that includes the original, different psychedelic effects that were supposed to make it to the original release but were dropped out by the MGM label superviser.

Remastered sound (only beware, "Second generation woman" comes from a destroyed acetate!) and with linernotes by Factory’s producer Brian Carroll.
