Psychedelic pop group the Rainy Daze formed in Denver, Colorado, in 1965. They were composed of singer/guitarist Tim Gilbert with his brother Kip on drums, lead guitarist Mac Ferris, bassist Sam Fuller, and keyboardist Bob Heckendorf.
The group started as a covers act, nevertheless parlaying a string of frat party gigs into a local television appearance that reportedly caught the attention of famed producer Phil Spector, who extended a management contract.
The group's album Acapulco Gold made it to #70 but was pulled once it was realized it was a pro-marijuana song and album. [1]
