Famous for their freaked out ride down "Tobbaco Road" (included on the now legendary "A Fistful Of Fuzz" comp), Peabody Co. were a mysterious US band who left behind a set of 10" acetates, collected here for the first time. Late 60s acid-punk / garage-psych, featuring seven self-penned songs plus three terrific cover versions of "I Can't Explain" (The Who), "Let's Live For Today" (Rokes / Grass Roots) and the aforementioned "Tobbaco Road" (based on the Blues Magoos cover but including an extended crazed theremin/drum freak out!). NYC psych collector Mike Ascherman recalls how he came to acquire the acetates
