This “group” is remembered as a project that was rushed together to capitalize on the 1966 psychedelic L.A. music scene by a small record company called
Viva. Releasing only one album, two men were primarily responsible for what was put out: producer
Snuff Garrett and a young musician,
J.J. Cale (Not the same
John Cale as that in
The Velvet Underground). Titled
A Trip Down the Sunset Strip, the album got its name because, as remembered by Garrett, “we had a real good shot (picture) of Sunset Boulevard and we needed an album to go with it.”
Cale, who would later be remembered for authoring “
After Midnight” and “
Cocaine” (later popularized by
Eric Clapton) composed four instrumental tracks to accompany the eight cover-songs on the album. This song is one of those instrumental tracks. Besides writing the songs, Cale also produced and played guitar on them.
