  Obscure 1968 hipster's underground rock album that has been highly rated for years by psych collectors around the globe selling for $100 to $150+ as far back as the 1990's   From the SHADOW MANN himself: “In 1968, I wrote a (trippy) song, “Come And Live With Me,” and Ron Haffkine (who several years later produced a string of hits) helped me make a demo album. Then my publishing partner Kelli Ross arranged for us to play it to the legendary owner of Roulette records, Morris Levy …who’s riding a wave of Tommy James hits (“Crimson & Clover,” “I Think We’re Alone Now”.)

Ronnie puts the music on….turns the volume up…and I leap onto Morris’ desk!! in my black, floppy ‘Shadow Hat’ … custom made black suede jacket with a giant red eagle on the back… I lip-synch my little heart out!!

“Come and live with me…I’ll treat you nice…”

Morris can hardly contain himself…he makes me perform it over and over for different members of his staff. Then he clears his office…leaving only the three of us. Morris slowly lights a cigar…and tries not to appear excited.

Then he says, “OK Shadow…I want to to do an album…I’ll even give you and Kelli your own label!! How much do you need to get started?” Haffkine chimes in “$25,000?…at which point Morris reaches under his desk…pulls out a brown paper bag and hands me $25,000 in cash!!

And the album...a tough garagey band backs the Shadow Mann and the hard edged rocker tracks are often accented by psychy guitar leads and use of wah-wah effects -- Shadow Mann laying it on the line. Some echo vocals amid profound centered vocals...some of the album sounds like the group THEM when they recorded on the Happy Tiger label delivering gritty garage rock. Other tracks have dramatic productions where the Shadow Mann is singing in full glory ...either way, this was Shadow Mann's mark on the underground rock scene over 40 years ago...
