From Texas we have the extraordinary Clique. Produced by Los Angeles-based Softpop legend GARY ZEKLEY (Of Yellow Balloon and Jan & Dean fame!) fresh from his work with those other brilliant Texans, the FUN & GAMES ("Elephant Candy" CRREV 121).
Containing strains of bubblegum, psych, pop rock, and soft pop, this fantastic album also features the original version of ‘Superman’, the fab Zekley-penned tune later turned into a mega-hit for R.E.M. Also features songs written by SMOKEY ROBERDS of the PARADE (who had a hit with 1967's ‘Sunshine Girl’), TOMMY JAMES (who also produces some of the bonus tracks), and Mr. Zekley himself.
If this isn't enough, the album - originally released during the final hours of the White Whale label in 1970 - also features the Top 20 smash, the Tommy James-penned ‘Sugar On Sunday’.
A gorgeous package in RevOlaPhonic sound (it says here!) And featuring many scarce previously-unpublished photos and with comprehensive liner notes in full inimitable Rev-Ola splendour.
