BOSTON TEA PARTY "SAME" (U.S.FLICK DISC) 1968  IN SHRINK  CVR  in shrink...has lite ringwear underneath, stocker removal so vg+ to vg++  disc appears to be vg++   just a few faint marks This really is an excellent album, among the very best pop/psych records recorded this side of the Atlantic.   this is one of those LP's where the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts. It just keeps comin' at ya, with one great song after another, in a way few records of it's ilk are able to. It's fairly easy to tell they were clearly a garage band, and the zealous production work on the album is not able to completely hide this fact. The main forte of this release is it's fabulous song writing. Their sound is bolstered by soaring vocal harmonies, powerful organ, and psych effects, but hampered by noticeably weak guitar. On tracks where a strong guitar break would clearly put it over the top, guitarist Stevens lacks the talent to deliver. Fortunately for the band, though, he more than made up for it with his song writing ability, participating with other members on, or solely writing, each of the ten cuts offered. Looking at this as a garage album, most fans would agree, it's really quite strong.
