The only recorded album by legendary psychedelic group Kak, released in 1969 on Epic Records. The album delivers a good amount of awesome west coast acid rock with some psych folk overtones included, reminiscent of Moby Grape, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Savage Resurrection, and Tripsichord, the fuzz-wah guitar is outstanding, some fuzz bass is included here as well, and the vocals are really well executed making for a solid album. Although formed in Davis, California, Kak were based in San Francisco for a good part of 1968, when they recorded their only album. Lead singer, guitarist, and primary songwriter Gary Lee Yoder and lead guitarist Dehner Patten had been in the Oxford Circle, an obscure early Northern Californian psychedelic band that had cut one garage/psych single ("Foolish Woman"/"Mind Destruction") and played some shows on the San Francisco psychedelic circuit, while bassist Joe-Dave Damrell had been on a 1965 single on Scorpio Records with Group "B".

Too bad they only released one LP. There was only one pressing of this LP in 1969 on the yellow Epic labels with the matrix numbers being;
