Timothy Leary, 3 years escaped from jail & lately divorced, had been running around Switzerland doing heroin, banging girls, reading occult books & pretending to have telepathic communications with writer/orgy organizer Brian Barritt. Meanwhile, bass player Harmut Enke had always wished he could make a record backing up Allen Ginsberg & hearing that Leary was nearby, thought he'd make a good substitute. Leary decided the band was cooler and weirder than Pink Floyd & could make something with lots of 'mind map levels'. Enke went home & hired some extra hippies to sing/howl backup choir vocals, and they all rented a house together to do a shitton of drugs & record some very floaty drones. Suprisingly soothing given all the personality it took to make. Tracklisting: Space, Time.
