Here is one of the great missing 60`s Psych LP`s recorded at Abbey Road in 1969 by US Band `The Aerovons` for Parlophone. Costing around £35,000 to record and under the guidance of George Harrison, Alan Parker, Geoff Emerick etc it remained unreleased until 2003 when it surfaced on CD. This was due to various personal band issues. There were 2 singles issued (World of You R5804 & The Train R5790) but the full album just sat as test pressings with various members of the band. What is truly exciting about this album is the fact that the band actually modelled themselves so completely on the Beatles that as a result wrote what is too many another Beatles album of its time. Why not subscribe as I add new rarities regularly.

The Aerovons were an American psychedelic rock music group. They were formed in 1966 in St Louis, Missouri by Tom Hartman. A 1967 demo record was heard by a representative of Capitol Records. In spite of an offer to record in Los Angeles, the group held out hope that they could record in London, the recording home of their heroes, The Beatles. In 1968 they travelled to London twice, receiving offers from both EMI and Decca. In 1969, the band returned to London and recorded an album at Abbey Road studio. Guitarist Bob Frank, a long time member of the group, left the group just before they went to London to record, due to personal issues. Only once in England did the band realize that his replacement, Phil Edholm, and the group had differences that proved insurmountable. He left shortly after they began recording.
Once the album was finished, the band returned to St. Louis where more personal problems between a group member and his family caused the group to splinter. EMI decided not to release the album. EMI invited Tom Hartman to come to England and reload, so to speak, but Hartman felt moving to England was too great a step at his age, and the partnership with EMI was dissolved. The album was not released until a CD release in 2003.
