Original 1967 VINYL first pressing of one the better psychedelic-garage albums in the exploitation bag ...

One of the best shows that at least one person remembers, back in 1967 at the Purple Owl.  An unknown band called the Projection Company opened for Santana and the Pink Floyd, and their inspired acid-drenched opening performance blew both those more famous bands off the stage.  The Pro-Co, as some used to call them, were truly inspired that night, or under the influence of something far more powerful than even Syd Barrett could cop, mixing one of the most amazing liquid slide shows with a searing overdriven fuzz guitar sound that many people claim had a profound influence on the way Syd played later that night, and every night thereafter.  In fact, some eyewitnesses claim that Syd stayed after the show for a full four hours with Pro-Co lead guitarist Arthur “Distortion” Burrows, learning exactly how he got those unearthly sounds out of his axe. The Projection Company’s set culminated in a mind-splitting 37-minute version of the Id’s “Boil the Kettle, Mother”, whereupon naked hippie girls cavorted onstage in psychedelic body paint with midgets dressed like fauns from an ancient Roman forest, while a rousing pyrotechnic show momentarily set the theatre curtains on fire, sending Carlos Santana into the streets for help.  Needless to say, most of Carlos’s and Syd’s band refused to play that night, fully aware they could never follow the Pro-Co’s blistering set, until finally Syd, Roger and Carlos came out two hours later and played a 45-minute freakout guitar jam dedicated to “that transcendent experience we all witnessed here earlier.”  Okay, someone must have dreamed this mind altering scene, you see, as the Projection Company were really THE ID who made the hotly sought/collected RCA 1967 Lp. As well, 1967’s Projection Company “Give Me Some Lovin’” Lp, is one of those once in more than a bunch session Lp's that spawned like-minded albums from the Animated Egg, Astro-Sounds from Beyond the Year 2000, T.J. Swift and the Electric Bag, and even... the Inner Sounds of The Id. Not that they couldn’t blow Santana off the stage if they…y’know, existed, as such, but we could certainly see where Syd might’ve wanted to jam with them if they did play live.  Especially on something like the wild freeform freakout “What Else”, or the mystical Indian magic carpet ride “Kimeaa,” where the guitarist tries hard to make his instrument sound like a sitar.  You see, most, if not all of this album is made up on outtakes from the “Inner Sounds Of The Id” sessions, especially since the Projection Company’s version of “Boil the Kettle, Mother” is exactly the same as the Id’s, without vocals. The strangely titled “Uh, Uh, Uh” sounds like a jangly garage punk version of Kaleidoscope’s “You Don’t Love Me, Yes I Know,” and this one’s got vocals.  While “Don’t Think Twice” has a ’66 Byrds or Strangeloves “Night Time” sound mixed with a catchy Monkees guitar riff.  They may not have blown heads at the Purple Owl, but the Projection Company’s album is one of the more entertaining (and psychedelic) results of the studio band sessions that spawned a dozen or more of our favorite exploito Crown and Alshire label releases.  And who knows, maybe someday, a live Pro-Co recording will finally surface. And let’s also keep our fingers crossed for that legendary 101 Strings at the Avalon Ballroom, uh, yeah...
