Hi! Randy here, co-founder of the Velvet Illusions. Thanks for playing our Hippy Town. It was actually recorded (at Sunset Recording) in 1967 rather than 1968. New York Magazine’s music critic named it the iconic song of 1967!
Hey Randy great to hear from you and my pleasure to share your song with my listeners.
Thanks for the additional info and clarification and I’ll make the change.
Tom, here’s the blog story I wrote about the band, complete with lots of photos, in case you’d like to read up on us. 🙂 https://randybowlestories.wordpress.com/2015/04/30/inside-the-velvet-illusions-by-randy-jimmie-james-bowles/
Great read! Thanks
Thanks, Tom.
We have three unreleased songs which will probably never see the light of day. Blessings. If you play us again, let me know and I will put a link on my Velvet Illusions Fans FB Page.
I am sure I’ll play another Velvet Illusions song at some point. I’ll let you know.
10-4, Tom. Thanks!
Play another one of our songs, Tom, and I’ll announce it on our Fans Page if you give me advance notice!
