Numerous lineup shifts and a move to New Mexico ensued, before the band, then calling themselves Frantic, 

settled briefly in Oklahoma City in 1966. There they linked up with the Rascals and hit the road, 

eventually landing in NYC. When it all went south, the group returned to New Mexico before California beckoned. 

There, Frantic finally landed a deal with Lizard Records, resulting in their debut Conception album. 

The covers are the most astonishing tracks on the set. The high point is definitely "Hey Joe," built 

around Kim Sherman's melancholy surf guitar and Jim Haas' cathedral organ. 

A garage-psych take on the Doors "Little Girl" is different, if nothing else, while "Morning Dew" starts in poppy 

Jefferson Airplane territory before taking off towards British prog-dom. 

The Pretty Things' "Midnight to Six Man" gets the ultimate workout as the band bang 

through garage-psych into prog rock and British Invasion territory...(AllMusic)
