Obscure British psych rockers Rupert’s People began in 1967 as Sweet Feelings, fronted by singer-songwriter/guitarist Rod Lynton. A debut single was issued by Colombia and after manager Howard Conder had the Fleur De Lys re-record the B-side as Rupert’s People, Sweet Feelings assumed the name.
A handful of intense singles followed but the anticipated breakthrough never quite happened; this crucial compendium gathers the scarce recordings, including the Sweet Feelings tracks and sympathetic covers of the Small Faces’ ‘I Can Show You’ and the Stones’ ‘You Can Get It If You Really Want.’
