Is The Smoke the "My Friend Jack" band?
Nah, that's the UK Smoke (pretty great in their own right even in their rebirth as 70s glam hitmakers).
There's also 2 American bands named The Smoke, both from California. One had 2 LPS on UNI in more SF bluesy psych mode.
Michael Lloyd's The Smoke was a studio band and released one LP that came out (identically aside from label) on both Sidewalk and Tower in 1968. It actually has a different (and better) version of October Country on it.
Only the Left Banke rival it as as far as symphonic/Baroque pop psych to my ear.
I have that Shaun Harris solo LP from '73 (on WB I believe). Good songs although WB in the early 70s isn't my favorite as far as production. Too bad as well considering the amount of quality artists they had.
WCPAEB is a long, weird story but they really have as many Great songs as almost lesser known band from the 60s through all 5 of their LPs.
