"Gale Garnett and the Gentle Reign-An Audience with the King of Wands-1968 US":

Signed by Columbia Records, 1968's "An Audience with the King of Wands" stood as Garnett's first true rock album. Co-produced by Chuck Victor and Mickey Baker, the album stood as a showcase for Garnett's impressive voice, songwriting (and other attributes).

Propelled by an Eastern flavored raga complete with sitar solo 'Breaking Through' started the album with a killer slice of psych, 'Fall In Love Again' was radio-ready pop, 'Big Sur' was patented California hippy-folk, 'That's Not the Way' boasted a bluesy feel and guitarist Bob Ingram handled the lead vocal on the band's cover of Fred Neil's 'Dolphins'.

MEMBERS: Michael Aragon -- drums, percussion - Gale Garnett -- vocals - Tony Hill -- keyboards - Bruce Horiuchi -- lead guitar - Bob Fischer -- bass - Bob Ingram -- guitar
