Mandrake Memorial

Anyone who all lived in Philadelphia in the late ’60s would remember the Mandrake Memorial good. They opened for most of the superstar rock rings who transferred through the town, and with regards to local popularity, these were most likely only second towards the Nazz. Beyond Philadelphia, these were scarcely known whatsoever, though they do manage to create some good second-division psychedelia. As vocalists these were adequate, however they had been achieved players and interesting authors, dressing their solid melodies with liberal jazz and Middle Eastern affects. Guitarist Craig Anderton became a observed music technology article writer, contributing to mags such as Digital Musician.
