Lollipop Shoppe – Just Colour Uni Records – 73019
VERY RARE 1968 ORIGINAL PRESSING OF THIS HERALDED PSYCH LP!! STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL SHRINKWRAP WITH A PRICE STICKER INTACT!! COVER IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION! VINYL IS VG++ ON ONE SIDE, EX ON THE OTHER.
Originally the Lollipop Shoppe were from Las Vegas, where they were known as The Weeds when they migrated to Portland, Oregon and changed their name - when The Seeds' manager Lord Tim took them on. Band leader, Fred Cole later formed seventies band Zipper. The opening cut 'You Must Be A Witch' is reminiscent of Love at their most frantic. Other strong tracks on the album are the killer garage punk tunes 'Underground Railroad', 'Don't Close The Door On Me' and 'Its Only A Reflection'. Led by sneering/snotty singer Fred Cole, who had formerly been in the Northwest punk band the Weeds, the Lollipop Shoppe's sole album (from 1968) ranks as one of the better psych-punk LPs, and also as one of the better one-shot rock records of the late '60s. Featuring Cole's choked, bitter phrasing, the group staked out the middle ground between the Seeds (who shared the same manager in ex- Los Angeles DJ "Lord Tim") and Arthur Lee's Love, with a bit of fellow L.A. psych-punkers the Music Machine thrown in. If comparisons must be made, they were definitely closer in tone to Love than the Seeds, with a mixture of raunch and reflection in the spirit of Arthur Lee. Cole was one of the few psychedelic performers to make a contribution during the punk era, surfacing in the Portland punk band the Rats in the late '70s.
The bands only album, 'Just Colour' is a good document of 'psychedelic rock' from that era. Rocking out hard, yet with a gentle and beautiful song like 'Only A Reflection' as well, it's no surprise that some of the Lollipop Shoppe songs (like 'Don't Look Back' and 'You Must Be A Witch') easily fit in with Fred Coles Dead Moon set list, even today.
After the Lollipop Shoppe broke up in 1969, Fred played in local Portland bands "Zipper" and "Dead Moon" -but- The name of the Lollipop Shoppe however will not easily be forgotten, since countless cover versions of 'You Must Be A Witch' surfaced in the eighties garage rock boom, and lots of garage punk bands of today also pick this song for their set list.

RECORD GRADING POLICY
MINT = like new or near new with only one or two small insignificant defects, a 9 or better on a 1-10 scale
EXCELLENT = Would be Near Mint, except for a couple of light hairlines or scuffs, which do not affect play
VG++ = still a very nice record with all or nearly all of its original gloss but may have a few more light, surface marks, hairlines, needle tracks or the like which should not materially affect play
VG+ = a nice, but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches. It probably plays with a few pops, but has no serious problems.
VG = a well-used record that still should sound OK when played, but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.
VG- = a very well-worn record that plays through without skipping, but will do until a better copy comes along.
Good = not actually good at all but probably will play through but with much in the way of surface noise, pops, crackles, etc. Still, will have no cracks, chips or the like
Fair = you'?re getting this record just to own but not to play
Poor = the sky's the limit, generally I will discard a record this bad (and sell the cover, jacket or sleeve alone) unless the label holds some particular interest
