Biography

A rather typical British psychedelic-pop group of the late '60s, although perhaps not as fruity or indulgent as some. Their sound was characterized by a blend of spiky guitar and piano, as well as accomplished harmonies. Their material was okay, but not remarkable, with the exception of the buoyant single "The Otherside," which is rated by psychedelic collectors as one of the finest obscure pieces of its kind from the era. ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide

Apple were a British psychedelic rock band. The band was founded in Cardiff in 1968 by Rob Ingram (guitar) and Jeff Harrad (Bass). They've released a single LP in 1969, titled An Apple A Day. The album was a commercial failure, and the band ceased to exist shortly after its release. However, during the subsequent years several tracks from the LP (most notably The Otherside(Harrad)) were dubbed classics of British psychedelic rock by critics, making An Apple A Day one of the most sought-after British psychedelic rarities.

The original vinyl version (released by Page One Records) is now extremely hard to find. A reissue by Repertoire Records was released in 1994, which included several bonus songs (those being early mono versions of some of the album's tracks).
