  • Label: Flashback
  • Genre: Psychedelic

Having made two superb psychedelic albums and gigged with the Doors, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, the Velvet Underground and many others, in June 1969 the Mandrake Memorial came to London. The plan was to record with famed producer Shel Talmy (the Kinks, the Who, Pentangle), but when that fell through they persevered alone. Long thought to be lost, 3 Part Inventions anticipates the woozy, dreamlike vibe of their 1970 masterpiece Puzzle, combining eerie vocals, trippy guitar and otherworldly electronics to create a unique whole. Transferred directly from the master tape, it’s released here for the first time, together with a detailed band history, rare images, two previously unheard outtakes from a 1969 acetate, and a rare radio interview.
