Further Reflections: The Complete Recordings 1967-1969

More Info

Now widely considered to have been one of the finest groups to emerge from the British psychedelic pop scene, Kaleidoscope signed to the Fontana label in the epochal year of 1967. 

Over the next couple of years, they issued two magnificent albums, Tangerine Dream and Faintly Blowing, as well as a quintet of vibrant, inventive, highly commercial singles. 

Somehow, though, they failed to achieve the glittering prizes that everyone predicted would be theirs.

Frustrated by their lack of success, and with a heavier musical climate taking hold, they ended the decade with a change of name to Fairfield Parlour and a new deal with progressive rock label Vertigo. 

But, as singer and lyricist Peter Daltrey observed at the end of Kaleidoscope’s debut album, the children stayed children, and they lived in their dreams. 

Undoubtedly the definitive Kaleidoscope package, Further Reflections assembles the group’s entire recorded legacy for the Fontana label under one roof for the first time. Relax your eyes, for after all, we can but share these minutes...
