Kaleidoscope were an English psychedelic and progressive rock group that existed from 1967 to 1969. Having performed since 1964
under the name The Sidekicks, they became The Key in November 1965, before settling upon the name Kaleidoscope when they signed
a deal with Fontana Records in January 1967. The group consisted of Peter Daltrey (vocals, keyboards), Eddy Pumer (guitars), Steve
Clark (bass, flute), and Dan Bridgman (drums). While the group did not achieve commercial success in its time, it retains a loyal

fanbase and its recordings are remembered in high regard.
The band released two albums, Tangerine Dream in 1967 and Faintly Blowing in 1969. As the group moved further into progressive
rock, and to avoid confusion with the American group Kaleidoscope, they renamed themselves yet again to Fairfield Parlour in 1969 and
switched to the Vertigo label. The transformation saw no lineup changes. Under this name, they recorded and released From Home to
Home in 1970. The last LP by the group was White Faced Lady, a rock opera recorded in 1971. It was shelved until 1991, when it was
released under the band's original name Kaleidoscope.
All tracks released by the band are Daltrey/Pumer compositions. « hide |
