THE YANKEE DOLLAR ~ CALIFORNIA JEFFERSON AIRPLANE FUZZ PSYCH ORIGINAL 1968 FIRST PRESS COLLECTIBLE LP USA - DOT RECORDS - DLP 28574 MINTY CLEAN VINYL!!!
The cover is in EX conditionand the record is in NEAR MINT condition.
Scarce, highly rated & top sought after Original 1968 WEST COAST Jefferson Airplane stylized hippie psych with strong array of tunes across both sides...from San Luis Obispo, California, between Los Angeles and San Francisco... YANKEE DOLLAR released its only album on the Dot Label 1968. Basically set in the Psychedelic/Folk Rock genre ~ the band is comparable with the West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band meets Jefferson Airplane/Peanut Butter Conspiracy "SF SOUND"... in fact the West Coast rock elements are ther complimented by hammering organ, fuzz guitar and strong female singing. Obvious Jefferson Airplane influence with mixed vocals and lots of fuzz and organ. The improvisational work calling a memory of the Jefferson Airplane, and a couple of well preformed covers with different arrangents that work, as in the hippie anthem "Let's Get Together", and also Donovans "Catch the Wind" is present and a kind of fresh version. The Yankee Dollar was originally known as "Pacific Grass & Electric" but the band's name was changed by lengendary music producer Frank Slay (Strawberry Alarm Clock) who was worried that the band's ("Pacific Grass & Electric") name would inhibit its station play on the conservative "Drake Radio Stations" (i.e. Bill Drake banned one of Slay's previous groups, "Rainy Daze" when he discovered that their hit record "That Acapulco Gold" was actually about purchasing drugs). Ultimately, Yankee Dollar, because of Slay's involvement in the project, was banned from the Drake Stations anyway, otherwise, as Billboard surmised at the time, the Yankee Dollar's Album would've been a major hit. .If you like the harmonies of "Jefferson Airplane" and the style of "Strawberry Alarm Clock" with their prominent organ & fuzz guitar parts, then you will love Yankee Dollar...
