Peacepipe's only released work during the band's lifetime, is one of those can't miss 45's for fans of inventive psychedelia. 'The Sun Won't Shine Forever' is stunning, with wah wah guitar, a killer riff, and psychotic vocals. One only wishes the track went on for more than 2 and a half minutes. Though the good news is that the main theme was expanded upon on their archival LP/CD release, and retitled 'The Day the War Has Ended'. 'Lazy River Blues' is just that - if it were stripped down to its bare essence. However on here it's completely psyched out beyond recognition, and is also quite good.
Ownership: CD: 2002 Shadoks (Germany). These are bonus tracks to the original Rockadelic archival release. There's no date on the 45 itself. 1968 is the generally accepted date, though Discogs places 1969 - but without any corroborating evidence to support.
