{"product_id":"the-smoke-its-smoke-time","title":"The Smoke - It's Smoke Time","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormed from Yorkshire beat-era roots and reborn in London as The Smoke, Mick Rowley, Mal Luker, John \"Zeke\" Lund and Geoff Gill were one of the great should-have-been bands of the British psychedelic explosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough their UK breakthrough was curtailed by controversy, their blistering \"My Friend Jack\" found a far warmer reception in Germany, where it climbed to No. 2 and briefly made them genuine continental stars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRushed out for the German market in 1967, It's Smoke Time caught the band at their peak: a vivid collision of tough mod-pop, garage bite and emerging psychedelia. From the fuzz-driven attack of \"My Friend Jack\", \"High In A Room\" and \"We Can Take It\" to the melodic charm of \"Waterfall\" and \"Wake Up Cherylina\", it remains a prized snapshot of mid-Sixties freakbeat invention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis expanded Morgan Blue Town edition brings that cult classic back on premium green 180gm vinyl, adding the previously unreleased original version of \"My Friend Jack\" and a detailed insert essay. For collectors, psych devotees and curious newcomers alike, it is the definitive way to rediscover The Smoke's rare, radiant and still-potent sole LP.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MORGAN BLUE TOWN","offers":[{"title":"180G Premium Green Vinyl","offer_id":55704181702983,"sku":"TRI-83042","price":26.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/9779\/5655\/files\/5036436141425.png?v=1793812465","url":"https:\/\/towerrecords.ie\/products\/the-smoke-its-smoke-time","provider":"Tower Records Dublin Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
