The Electric Prunes were a pioneering American psychedelic rock band formed in 1965 in Los Angeles, California. Known for their experimental sound blending rock, psychedelia, and garage elements, they were among the early adopters of studio innovation to create distinctive sonic textures. The band's best-known hits include "I Had Too Much to Dream (Last Night)" and "Get Me to the World on Time." They were influential in shaping the psychedelic music movement of the 1960s, despite facing challenges in maintaining creative control over their work.

Their debut album, The Electric Prunes, released in 1967, is a landmark of the psychedelic era. It features their breakthrough single "I Had Too Much to Dream (Last Night)", a track renowned for its surreal lyrics and innovative use of tremolo guitar effects. The album blends raw garage rock energy with experimental soundscapes, showcasing their creativity and willingness to push musical boundaries. Other highlights include "Are You Lovin' Me More (But Enjoying It Less)" and "Onie." The record captures the spirit of the psychedelic 60s while offering a glimpse into the group's potential, which was later hindered by creative disputes and management pressures.
