The Electric Prunes-"Underground" (1967)

In the field of experimentation, Electric Prunes played a decisive trump card in the second half of the 1960s. Their albums full of spirited sound intensity, were probably one of the preludes to the underground or progressive, opening new sound lines to the groups that later gave the definitive rise to the avant-garde.
They left behind an interesting and ambitious collection of great albums worthy of study, "The Electric Prunes", their first album was the basis for "Underground", their second LP, which already showed in their name which were the musical paths of the group.
In this "Underground" the growing psychedelic and experimental vision of the group was observed, despite everything it would go unnoticed by the general public.
"Mass In F Minor" his third work is even more experimental, a concept album closer to a rock mass than to a conventional rock album, which to make it even more complicated was sung in Latin. This unpublished and unusual work ends with the disintegration of the band.
However, in 1968 the album "Release Of An Oath" would be published, following the tone of the previous one, it does not have much commercial impact, but curiously it was immortalized in the famous movie "Easy Rider" thanks to the theme "Kyrie Eleison".
"Just Old Good Rock and Roll" was the epitaph of Electric Prunes, which despite returning to the sounds of its origins was yet another complete commercial disaster.
Years later the band would meet again for some concerts and various compilations and live recordings of their era of splendor were published, such as the magnificent "Stockholm 67" recorded in 1967 during a European tour, published more than 30 years later, in a historical recording considered one of the best live shows of the psychedelic era.
