Peppermint Trolley Co. (1968)

This one's by request. The Peppermint Trolley Co. were from Redlands/California. Their album will please "Soft Sounds For Gentle People" fans. Highlights here are the outstanding "Trust", the rocking "Beautiful Sun", the lightweight "Baby You Come Rollin' Across My Mind" and the poppy opener "I've Got To Be Going". Too bad that I could make it only in 128 kBit/s available but I've got it from another source (but it's better than nothing and the sound is still okay). You can find more information about the band on Danny Faragher's site.

Latest news:
