RECORD NEAR EX but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE VG(+) (please, see pictures and read above description)
The opening cut You Must Be A Witch is reminiscent of Love at their most frantic.
Other strong tracks on the album are the slower sensitive punk ballad Underground Railroad,
Don't Close The Door On Me and the more commercial Its Only A Reflection.
Fred Cole remains active on the music scene with the highly regarded cult act Dead Moon...(Fuzz Acid & Flowers)
"You Must Be a Witch" by the Lollipop Shoppe was one of the most ferocious garage punk singles of the 1960s,
a savage blast of paranoia and electric guitar that became a sought-after collectable among garage fanatics
and one of the high points of the Nuggets box set. The Lollipop Shoppe cut just one album,
1968's Just Colour, and "You Must Be a Witch" is easily the most hard-edged cut on the record,
but if the Lollipop Shoppe don't hit quite as hard on the other 11 tunes,
the material is strong enough to impress any fan of vintage garage or psychedelia. ...(AllMusic)
