This Toronto outfit evolved out of The Magic Cycle. God was a shorter version of a track on their first album, the flip was non-LP. All the material on Thecycle, a pleasant melodic pop/underground album, was written by Joey Rome and Paul Craig. The killer track is God, especially after the drum part. Recommended listening.

Sorry, I have never heard their "Magic Music" album.
@antonius
I have also read about an album called "Saturday Afternoon Rummage Sale" but I doubt if it really exists.
Hello Buffalo.
I asked to Leonard and James Lee from Redtelephone66 if they have the second album of the Cycle.Perhaps with a little chance!.
