Mirror - Reflected Glory (1969)

The sole single of this Bath/UK band became a classic, most notably for the b-side "Faster Than Light", a great mod/freakbeat number. You can hear it on the "The Psychedelic Snarl" (aka Rubble Vol. 1). The a-side "Gingerbread Man" was more pop orientated. You can hear and watch a video of that song here. Bam Caruso put out a 4-track-E.P. (Bam Caruso PABL 042 / 1986) with unreleased songs taken from original acetates. A sort of a historical time piece that might interest you.
