Origin Story!

In this episode, we play the song that inspired our podcast: the remarkable “In the Past” – written by Wayne Proctor and recorded by his band We The People back in the very psychedelic year of 1966 (1:08). Gearheads will love Erik’s discussion of WP’s “octachord,” which gives the song (and our intro) its way-out sound. We also listen to & discuss the Chocolate Watchband’s precision version, with its organ swells and copious percussion that’ll expand your mind more than you can handle! (1:04:45).
