Association
 
Like Always (Listen: Pop-up)   Favoriting Birthday  Warner  1968  Vinyl  Perhaps the group's best produced & most coherent - if not strongest - LP. The cover art & Bones Howe's production reached out to a potential potheads-with-earphones audience, to small avail. As with another vocal group, Free Design, there's strange goings on beneath even the wimpiest surfaces. It's like doing doob at Disneyland.
