Genre: Pop
Places I remember: Slowboat Records
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Bye Bye Bye
Gear costume: Green Apple Tree
Active compensatory factors: The cover implies a 1968 trip (maan) but this is strictly squaresville - in a good way!!

I've mentioned Harpers Bizarre previously and their straight world. For some reason I have a real soft spot for their groovy, deeply uncool, harmonies.
This was their third album, displaying what the AllMusic reviewer called their 'mildly eccentric soft rock direction, remaining as mildly eccentric [as] ever, but growing ever softer'.
Do I care a jot? Nope!! Bring on the harpsichord, the massed 'ooohs', the awkward ornate arrangements, the hushed strings!! More! More!
Where do they all belong? Actively looking for more Harpers Bizarre!
