_________________________________________________________________________
In 1967, the Human Beinz scored a hit single with their feeback guitar-laced "Nobody But Me", and for a brief and fleeting moment the boys from Youngstown, Ohio were bone fide rock stars. While their first album was a great start, when they went into the studio to record their second LP, they were determined to create something even more unusual, and you can't argue that they succeeded with Evolutions. An amusing pastiche of psychedelic excess, Evolutions is a far cry from the slightly trippy garage rock of their first Lp hit.
Evolutions opens with “The Face,” an excellent psych-pop track with production values (backing arrangements, harpsichord and lots of fuzz guitar) that are a good deal more sophisticated than one might expect. "Close Your Eyes" is a delicate mostly-acoustic plea for hippie-era togetherness, "My Animal" is an oblique protest number leavened with sound effects, and "I've Got To Keep On Pushing" is a showcase for Richard Belley's snarling guitar leads. But the real descent into the maelstrom comes with the album's last two tracks; the rural rock workout "Two Of A Kind" concludes with the sound of someone tearing apart a piano for several minutes, and the seven-minute "April 15th" gives Belley room for all the guitar freak-out-age he ever dreamed of, which may be just what most fans still want actually wanted to hear. The Human Beinz are a better and more imaginative band than one might expect on Evolutions; Mel Pachuta, Ting Markulin and Mike Tatman are a solid rhythm section, the songs (mostly written by Lex De Azevedo, who also produced and arranged the album) are strong. A cloud of Nehru psychedelia hangs over this album, and the Human Beinz pull it off, Evolutions is the work of a band chewing what they've bitten off.
