The New York City based combo released one album, highly sought after by collectors of obscure garage psych. Discovered by the Blues Magoos management team, who got the band signed to Capitol Records. A single (Capitol 2365) was released followed by the album. The album was recorded at Regent Studios in NYC.

 Condition: The cool gatefold sleeve has good gloss inside and out. When closed there is some corner wear and some light edge wear. There is a hint of ringwear at the bottom front and a small light scuff  4" up from the bottom.The back side shows some edge and corner wear plus some ring wear at the very bottom. Overall the sleeve is VG+. On the inside of the front gate-fold sleeve when open, the band's name is listed five times in white block letters over the black background starting in the upper left corner, listing down and ending just above the song title listings. The lettering is similar to the lettering shown on the upper left hand corner of the sleeve back side, except the inside lettering is larger than the lettering on the outside. The point is that the previous owner of the album has inconspicuously printed his name "BRENT RILEY" inside of the "E" of the bottom "THE KOALA". '''Whew'''

The vinyl disc and labels are in Mint- condition.
