Notes on the Tracks

---

These tracks include several covers, including two Rolling Stones songs (“Nanker Phelge” is a songwriting pseudonym that the band used for collaborative writing efforts on many of their early songs).

The Moonrakers were originally known as the Surfin’ Classics and, like many 1960’s garage rock bands, have a website and had a 2006 reunion concert. Guitarist Bob Webber of the Moonrakers founded Sugarloaf with Jerry Corbetta, who brought in drummer Robert MacVittie and rhythm guitarist Veeder Van Dorn III from this band as well.

The title of the psychedelic instrumental “Music to Smoke Bananas By” refers to the urban legend prevalent in the late 1960’s that banana peel scrapings have an LSD-like effect if dried and then smoked like marijuana.
