Finders Keepers - Stained Glass Sun (1968)

Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue - applies to this record by the Finders Keepers, except that the "something blue" are mostly new compositions by various members of the group. Vocal is by John Allison, who comes from England, and we are wondering whether we detect something of Tommy Steele's influence in some of the numbers? Chris Anderson sings "Man of the Sea" and "Orient Green". The Finders Keepers perform in the Northern Suburbs of Johannesburg and are tremendously popular wherever they appear. We are confident that something of this record will appeal to you. Remember, there are no fewer than seven new numbers of which any one can become tomorrow's hit tune. Add this record to your collection now and prevent later disappointment when stocks run low.
(sleeve notes)

This is the CD-reissue (Phantom CD 26 / 2004) of the south-african psych/garage band from Johannesburg. The original album was released on "Bonus 134". The great garage mayhem "Man Of The Sea", the nice pop number "Your Loving" and the psychedelic "Reflections" are the best tracks to my ears. This one's by request.
