This is actually pretty amazing stuff - considering this is so-called 'studio quality' of the day, it's still good - and Billy and the band would've been much better as a live act - though the Jimi influence is right out there on both of Billy's sleeves - but they would've been a killer support act for Hendrix...
used to watch these guys in 1965 play teen canteen @ St Luke's Methodist Church in Houston...try to find "99th Floor" or their version of Beatles "I Want to Hold Your Hand"...PSYCHODELIC!!
Can't get enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah yes, surfing all day in Galveston and then seeing the Sidewalks at Our Lady of Fatima in Texas City for a buck fifty at night.

No wonder Jimi liked Billy's playing and talked him up!
