Synopsis

Album Description

So..what links New Orleans Maestro Harold Battiste, Dr. John, The Soft Machine, The Daily Flash, Tiny Tim, Jack Nitsche, Sonny and Cher, Traffic, Jimi Hendrix and Ginger Baker's Airforce? Why, THE CAKE..the last of the classic girl groups, whose two 1967/68 albums are as they say a game of two (sometimes three!) halves, classic girlgroupisms mixed with Baroque Pop, Wyrd Folk, Psychpop and club R&B. A wonderful snapshot of the Sunset Strip, with a wonderfully decadent atmosphere for three such innocent girls...you'll just love it! The Cake recently reformed to play the prestigious launch party for the forthcoming Jimi Hendrix biopic, and who knows - they may come to your town soon... At great personal cost, RevOla presents THE CAKE! Never previously on CD cult artists...and they look hot in pictures too! Wonderfully re-mastered by Mr. Nick Robbins and with gorgeous packaging featuring wonderful pictures provided by THE CAKE and legendary rock photographer Ed Caraeff .

CD Reviews

The cream is a dream! CAKE m-m-m

"

These girl group tracks are atmospheric and haunting in their 60's Gold Star studio production.The two lp's included here were originally on the Decca label.The English tinged vocals are girlish and smart at the same time.The harmonies of these voices radiate a sound supreme.

The Harold Battiste ( new Orleans session man and arranger producer to Sonny and Cher,Dr. John and many others)arrangements put this group above the other girl groups in sophistication and elegance. To get these 2 lps together in one creamy cd was an effort very worth the wait.They deserve to garner new listeners.This cd includes "The cake", and "Slice of the Cake",released in that order in their late 60's hey-day..

These lps came out in the late 60's when they didn't quite find the audience they deserved.The instrumentals are enchanting,in the Phil Spector school of sound.This compilation is a must have for girl-group and folk-rock enthusiasts.If you missed it the first time,get it today!!

I have listened to the vinyl for years. Thanks Revola and Chesea of the "Cake" for the treat.

One fun feature of this cd is Cher's distinctive background vocals on "baby it's me".They really are good!

However these three young ladies were a quality act in themselves!

I think "Extroverted Introvert" with it's creative drumming is my favorite.However these songs are meant to be heard together,as a continuous flow of creative sound."

Mmmmm delicious cake!!!

"So glad they are finally on CD !! After seeing these gals on the Smothers Brothers' rebroadcast in the 90s, I found their first album. Their R&B covers were nice, but it's their original material that blew me away. Why their record company didn't promote the medieval/hippie side of the band, I don't know, their original compositions, and the production is just beautiful. So happy so see both of their albums now on CD, with wonderful liner notes about the band. These girls are finally getting their much-needed resurgence (it is a shame Jeanette Jacobs is not around to enjoy it) to prove they really did make good music beyond their unusual appearances on a couple of 60s variety shows."

Nothing to be embarassed about!

"I was a huge fan back in the 60's, but it occurred to me that there was a real chance all I would feel when listening to this CD was embarrassment. Well - I was pleasantly surprised. This is good! They really were a decent "blue-eyed soul" act!"
