É sempre bom revisitar a utópica década de 1960 e resgatar umas bandas, que apesar de pouco sucesso comercial foram emblemáticas em seu tempo, por isso, elegi o "Electric Flag" para a postagem de hoje, representado aqui pelo seu primeiro álbum, "A Long Time Comin' ", lançado em 1968 e que apresentava um line up de primeira grandeza,que incluia nomes de músicos de peso na cena musical da costa oeste dos Estados Unidos naquele momento. O mix Blues, Soul e Psicodelia é a marca deste trabalho. A título de curiosidade, o nosso saudoso Sivuca, então radicado nos Estados Unidos, tem registrada a sua participação neste disco.
