This mysterious band has become something of a legend in its own lunchtime.
The Sundowners released a string of singles between 1966 and 1968 and the amazing 1968 album Captain Nemo which blends Beatlesque melodies, West Coast cool, frantic showmanship, psychedelic production flourishes and a mile-wide cheeky grin.
They also appeared in the Tony Curtis movie Don't Make Waves (the one with the Byrds theme tune) and the popular TV shows It Takes A Thief and The Flying Nun. As if that wasn't enough, they toured with The Monkees and Jimi Hendrix!
Quite how a band this good with these credentials slipped so far off the radar in the intervening years is a mystery. However, us splendid fellows at Rev-Ola have leapt to the rescue by issuing this neglected gem on CD for the first time ever and have wrapped it all up in the kind of dazzling audio and visual package you've grown to expect from us. How could we not?
