Psychedelic Pop/Soft Prog; The Souls Of Inspyration - The Souls Of Inspyration (1970 Columbia) Vinyl

"Winners of the 1970 musical competition at Quebec's 'Man And His World' (former site of Expo '67), this quartet subsequently played for two weeks at Expo '70 in Osaka, Japan and upon their return recorded this, their sole LP release, for the Canadian branch of Columbia Records. As with labelmates Jarvis Street Revue and It's All Meat, press runs for these LP's numbered in the four-digit range at best, nowhere near the quantities US counterparts The Byrds or Mitch Miller (or heck, even Hampton Grease Band) commanded, and all have become sought-after psychedelic arty-facts. So, what about the music you ask? A melodic bridge betwixt late psych and early prog, with a solid foundation of organ and driving rhythm, well-placed stinging guitar leads, and forceful vocals saying everything and nothing simultaneously. 33 minutes, seven tracks and not a loser in the bunch.
