Time to nip this thing in the bud with this L.A. group volume 1 part one blah blah so I got it al from Mario at Rockasteria and others then put the songs in order. Per Discogs: American psychedelic rock band, formed in Los Angeles, California in 1965. Published their last album as Markley, then disbanded in 1969. Some members were previously in The Rogues.
The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band was a bizarre combination of three well-heeled teenagers (brothers Dan and Shaun Harris and their school mate Michael Lloyd), and an even wealthier, thirty-something attorney called Bob Markley. Markley secured the group a recording deal with Reprise Records, where they made a series of strange records. While they scored no hits for the label, the band's most famous composition was 'Smell Of Incense', which was covered to great effect by Southwest F.O.B., among others. The song was composed by Markley with a later addition to the band, guitarist Ron Morgan (who later played with The Electric Prunes and a very early edition of Three Dog Night).

Kindly exercise caution. The Michael Lloyd/Harris Brothers rabbit hole can be very deep.

Just to begin. Friends can take you down the Steve Kipner rabbit hole also. And then there's the tonage of Michael Lloyd's production work...
Thought that I would point out a new(ish) blog, Unforgettable Memories About the Good Old Days, has posted an album by a group called Goodness and Mercy. It's produced by Bob Markley and Michael Lloyd and has a couple songs co-written by Bob Markley and Shaun Harris. WCPAEB is everywhere! Goodness and Mercy is here if you're intrigued:
