Penny Arkade - Not the freeze (1968)

For more than three and one half decades THE PENNY ARKADE has remained one of the best-kept secrets of late 1960s rock music. From 1967 to 1968, a span of nearly two years, this “shadow band” recorded music for two albums, various singles, played at some of the top Hollywood rock clubs, auditioned for a recurring role on a major network television series, was written up in such teen-oriented magazines as Tiger Beat , “hung out” with some of the top rock stars of the era and were at least indirectly associated with The Monkees.
