New York, US, 1968 The Tingling Mother's Circus was a rock group from New York, that released one single in 1967 Face In My MInd\" b/w \"Isn't It Strange (Roulette catalog number 4758) and an album A Circus Of The Mind in 1968. The album is an ambitious project conceived as a circus performance of two acts. Musically it consists mostly of pop/rock songs some of which were evidently intended to aspire for a wider radio airplay. It owes a lot to psychedelia with horns, fuzzy guitars, country, folk influences. The album didn't sell at the time of its release, but it is now a rare collectors' item. Despite its total commercial flop, it has a very strong and fresh feeling, the songs are catchy, but not kitchy, and there are some very nice and thoughtfully done arrangements.
