The Fred Bison V were Nick's fake "beat" group.  More like 1966 garage-
meets-psych (Electric Prunes, Pretty Things) than the full-on 1967/68
psychedelia and psychedelic pop of the "proper" Frond albums.  Great songs,
fine album, and a funny sleeve on which Nick impersonates all four very-
different-looking members of the "band" (including the girl drummer!).
