The first time I have heard "I Live In The Springtime" was on "Highs In The Mid-Sixties Vol. 4". It was done by a band called "Buzzsaw". With its charming pop tune accompanied by fuzz guitar it was one of my garage favourites. In fact it was the "Lemon Drops" recording from 1967 in a stereo mix that was released by their new incarnation "Buzzsaw" five years later. Cicadelic Records put out two albums of unreleased material in the '80s and both records were finally released on one CD by Collectables (Collectables COL-CD-0517 / 1993). Half of the CD is filled with demo recordings that sound a bit like the bonus tracks on Arf-Arf's "Lazy Smoke - Corridor Of Faces" release. The other half is fine garage and psych. The real treasure find here is the eastern influenced "Sometime Ago". Start your own garage/psych mix tape/CD with that track and let it follow by "We The People - In The Past" and then you know you're on the winner side.Tracklist:
