The album was recorded after Spence had spent six months in a mental\u003cbr\u003einstitution following a delusion-driven attempt to attack his Moby Grape band mates with a fire axe, after having ingested LSD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the urban myth goes, on the day of his release he drove a motorcycle, dressed in only his pajamas, directly to Nashville to\u003cbr\u003erecord his only solo album. Fact is that he recorded this album in seven days, playing all the instruments himself and that the\u003cbr\u003eend result is now considered to be a classic psychedelic folk album.
