The Factory - Complete Story! (1966-1969)


The Factory was a very young British psychedelic band that put out a couple of singles in the late 60s that never took off. Their guitarist was 17 and their drummer only 16. This is a compilation of their recordings, which has a great combination of heavy psych, psych-pop, psych-folk and some very lo-fi recordings. "Path Thru the Forest" was their first single that came out on MGM in 1968. It's excellent heavy psychedelia with great lead guitar, feedback, and distorted vocals. There are two versions of this song included, one with a weird intro of monkeys howling and additional psychedelic effects that are well integrated. Their second single was "Try a Little Sunshine" which was written by John Pantry, a friend of IBC engineer Brian Carrol who helped get the Factory started with his colleague Damon Lyon Shaw. This is also an excellent song with great lead guitar and vocal harmonies. The compilation has two covers, including Fairport Convention's "Mr. Lacey" and Family's "Second Generation Woman," neither of which I've heard the original version. Overall, it's a great compilation despite annoying inconsistencies in volume between tracks.

Stand-Out Tracks:
"Path Thru the Forest"
"Gone"

"Red Chalk Hill"

    Hi would you mind stating which blog platform you're using? I'm going to start my own blog soon but I'm having a difficult time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique.

    P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

    They are really convincing and can certainly work.

    Still, the posts are too brief for starters.
    Could you please extend them a bit from subsequent time?

    Great blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers?

    I'm planning to start my own website soon but I'm a little
    lost on everything. Would you recommend starting with a free platform
    like Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices
    out there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any recommendations? Thanks a lot!
