Sunlight - Creation of Sunlight. 1968 USA-California

Sunlight's sole album is an excellent example of sunshine pop psych, complete with harmony vocals, flute, organ, and fuzz guitar. The album is frequently compared to the early Strawberry Alarm Clock albums - not an unfair comparison - though not near as consistent overall.

Ownership: CD: 2005 Lion Productions. Jewel case. Contains historical liner notes, and a rare single, of which one of the two songs is unique.

Within collector circles, the band has always been known as Creation of Sunlight. However, according to the liner notes of the CD, the band was called Sunlight and Creation of Sunlight is the album title. Despite being on the quirky Windi label, which was based in Utah, the group were from Long Beach, California. Windi is most famous for releasing the Merkin album.

Watch out for bootlegs of this title as they were numerous prior to Lion's reissue.
