Freaks Of Nature The Shadow Chasers Psych Freakbeat Belfast Gypsies Them Van Morrison

The Freaks of Nature UK single People Let s Freak Out, The Shadow Chasers Island WI3017 issued late 1966. Produced by Kim Fowley. When Van Morrison left Them in 1965 the remaining band called themselves The Belfast Belfast Gypsies issued a UK single Gloria s Dream, Secret Police on Island WI3007 and then this single under the group name The Freaks of Belfast Gypsies broke up in late 1966 and didn t exist by the time the single was possible reason for the name change is that a recording engineer felt that the single would get more attention if the band name was changed to something more psychedelic. Neither the Belfast Gypsies nor producer Kim Fowley had any prior knowledge of the name change. According to Fowley only 100 copies of the UK single bearing the Freaks of Nature name were pressed. People Let s Freak Out is wrongly partcredited to Pat McAvley. It should be Pat McAuley.
