Group 1850 – The Best off Music

Groep 1850 (also known as Group 1850) was a Dutch psychedelic rock band that was founded in 1964 in The Hague. The band, despite never achieving success outside the Netherlands, are now considered one of the most innovative acid rock bands from the era. They first used the name Klits, but were renamed Groep 1850 in 1966 when their debut single, “Misty Night” / “Look Around”, appeared on the tiny Yep label. Though few copies were pressed, it established them as one of The Netherlands most original bands (alongside the Outsiders and Q65) and they soon signed to Philips. More singles ensued, in a highly psychedelic vein, including “Mother No-Head”, their only single to chart on the Dutch Top 40. Their debut album, Agemo’s Trip To Mother Earth, appeared in late 1968. In The Netherlands its sleeve had a 3-D image on the cover, and came with a pair of 3-D glasses. See for more
