Original New Jersey Psych revivalists, who not only hoped to recreate the beauty of the original psychedelic movement, but hoped to move it forward into the modern era. Only a handful of bands can claim they chose that highly unpopular path!
Lord John was an integral part of the New Jersey 80's psych scene, along with such legendary bands as, The Secret Syde, The Laughing Soupdish, The Watch Children, Mod Fun, and Tiny Lights. . . .

I used to go see you guys at The Court, The Ledge, Animal Sounds on Cook etc.... Opium Vala, Cucumbers, Zoo Muzic, The Null Set, Surfers from the Future.etc....
Hey, thanks for the add. I'd heard a lot about your band already because of your association with Ray Fracalossy and it's great to finally hear the music - sounds awesome.
