Psychedelic West Coast Rock & Pop: The Light - Turn On The Light 1967-1970 (2007 UT Records)

The Light was a dynamic, multi talented group from Califrnia's Inland Empire. Initially trading in fuzzed - out Music Machine inspired punk and melodic, Left Banke style pop, they evolved into an incendiary West Coast psychedelic rock ensemble comparable to Buffalo Springfield and Moby Grape, but with the dual guitar firepower of the Beck/Page Yardbirds. Turn on THE LIGHT includes their sole 45 release plus 23 dazzling previously unreleased cuts.( Words by UT Records on back of the cd).

The band immediately convinced me with their songs. Their pop songs as well as her powerful psychedelic rock songs are convincing and show that there was a band here who knew their craft. Why the band didn't manage to reach a larger audience will probably remain unanswered. Definitely an interesting band from the sixties.(Frank)
