The Electric Prunes are an American rock band who first achieved international attention as an experimental psychedelic group in the late 1960s. The band performed its 1966 hit song "I Had Too Much to Dream (Last Night)" on American Bandstand. Their follow up was also a top 40 hit, "Get Me To the World On Time". The band is also recognized for the song "Kyrie Eleison," which was featured on the soundtrack of Easy Rider and was taken from their controversial Religious Rock album "Mass in F Minor". After a period in which they had little control over their music, they disbanded for 30 years. In 1999 the band reformed, and by 2001 the members resumed recording and touring and remained active until 2011.
A fun band, a true garage band, and oh so relevant in the 60's, the Electric Prunes deserve more credit than they receive... and more airplay.
