It was released in 1969 on the Pink Elephant label. The album is the debut for Mariska Veres. BackgroundThis is the group's first record with singer Mariska Veres. Robbie van Leeuwen acquired Veres in an attempt to ape the form of the female-fronted Jefferson Airplane. With Veres's notable vocal performance and stunning looks, the band finally had an adequate frontwoman.[4] The band's second album was a mixture of influences ranging from pop rock to psychedelic rock. There is also early evidence of their interest in Americana, with tracks like "California Here I Come" and "Harley Davidson".[5] Overall, it is best known for its hit single "Venus" which reached number one on the American national charts. Never again did the band achieve such success in the US.[6] The John Mayer version of the song "Acka Raga" was used as the theme song for the BBC1 quiz show Ask the Family. The track "Love Buzz" gained notoriety when it was covered by grunge band Nirvana. Track listingAll songs were written by Robbie van Leeuwen, except for "Acka Raga" by John Mayer.
